Don't buy this set unless you can't get the stick and block separately. The featherboard is complete trash and should be thrown away immediately. I haven't used the stick, though it looks like you could make a longer and nicer one in a few minutes. I do, however, use the push block all the time and have found it to be very useful. There are certainly applications were it doesn't work that a custom one would, but that's always the case. I can recommend the push block, could go either way on the stick and just put the featherboard in the trash and back away. Buy the other two separetly if you want them and save [$$$].
