Quick google, are they for in the mitre track? If so I made some last weekend for my spindle moulder simply from small blocks of aluminium with a bolt screwed through them to fix finger boards to the sliding table. Very easy to make. :thumbs:

Jim, if you're struggling to get them off the shelf I'll happily make you a couple I'd just need accurate sizes of your mitre slot.

Just thought I'd add this as I was using mine today, these are they

There is a double step in them as they are made to fit in the mitre tracks of both the spindle moulder & bandsaw which are slightly different , this is them holding a finger board pushing some 9" Oak against the bandsaw fence whilst deep ripping.
