Does anyone have plans or photos to make a Biesemeyer auxiliary fence? Also, how easy is it to make a longer cursor to keep the aux fence all the time? I have a Grip-Tite fenceplate so I would like it on. Any help would be appreciated.

I keep an aux short fence on my Biesemeyer. I put 2 tapes, one right next to the other, on the rail and I can read both through the cursor.
I'd love to see pictures or read descriptions of the many ways people modify or otherwise make a Biesemeyer more useful to their needs. A double tape is bordering on genius! I never would have thought of it. Well Done
Any other sweet ideas??

Could you please post a picture of the tapes and fence? It would be much appreciated.
As requested:
Thanks for the pictures, I must of been brain dead when I didn't understand what you had originally posted. By the way, I agree it is a brilliant idea. You should send it in to Fine Woodworking as a shop tip!! Thanks again for taking the time to take the pictures.

I made my aux fence exactly 1 inch wide. Then used a strip of masking tape under the factory tape to remind me to subtract 1" from the cuts.
