BOW Products patented EVA feathers virtually arrest kickback creating the safest featherboard on the market. EVA (Ethelene Vinyl Acetate) is an industrial grade super strong material that is pliable yet has memory. It is incredibly durable, firm and has memory. A closed cell technology that will not shed or bleed color. Less rigid than hard plastic, EVA absorbs vibration will give before it mars wood. EVA will not mar even softest woods using high feather tension and the feed is firm yet smooth. It absorbs vibration and chatter for a cleaner cut. EVA will not bleed color or flake onto the wood and it conforms slightly to the wood for feed control. The GuidePRO Feather Board from BOW Products provides innovation to the woodworking industry. The flexible, yet sturdy EVA feather allows for a firm hold of the work piece as it passes through the band saw blade. The 6-inch high feather is versatile and allows for control when working with taller or odd-shaped pieces of wood. What sets BOW Products featherboards apart from others? The principal difference with Bow Featherboards is the use of EVA for the feathers combined with our living hinge feather design. These 2 features combined create safer and more durable woodworking products and accessories. What is EVA? EVA is an industrial grade super strong material that is pliable yet has memory. EVA closed-cell technology is firm, durable, and will not shed or bleed color. Less rigid than hard plastic, EVA absorbs vibration and will give before it mars wood. Why is EVA better than plastic for featherboards? While plastic feather boards can mar and damage soft woods, EVA is soft and strong enough to protect your workpiece. It conforms slightly to the wood for improved infeed control. EVA also absorbs vibration and chatter for a cleaner cut. How does EVA help protect your tools? If EVA feathers accidentally contact a blade or router bit, it simply cuts through without a violent reaction. It will not harm the cutter. Simply replace the EVA feathers and the featherboard is as good as new. How does EVA help prevent kickback? As kickback occurs, the EVA feather moves back and pinches the wood against the fence absorbing kickback forces until our living hinge stops it while the feather is at its furthest extension. This virtually arrests kickback, protecting you from harm.

I did buy the extender top piece as I routinely run larger pieces - my only gripe there was it was painfully difficult to swap the black piece - to me this is minor however as once it is in place you should be good for awhile - unless you damage it by hitting the blade or something.Make sure you look online to see the video on how best to use it, it will help. Go to Bow-Products.com and then find the Guide Pro, there are videos there to answer just about all your questions. Once you have it all figured out, it is simple to use. The black strip is firm and non-marring, I ran some rather expensive Koa through with the Guide Pro and the results were fantastic. The pressure it applies is constant, right down to the end of the board and the material it uses is such I am confident it will not damage my blade should there be contact. While using this I felt like the feed rate was slightly higher and I was able to maintain my focus on the piece and not worry about holding it firmly to the fence.Note, if you extend it a to near the end of the bar it becomes a little difficult to get it to "lock" firmly into place - the piece you are cutting essentially needs to be in position to help it hold steady. This is fine if you are working with something short, rather a pain if you are working with a 12' board in need of resaw.My only other gripe is the Guide Pro Anchor Bar is not included, for the price I think it should be. The bar should allow you to use the Guide Pro more effectively on your saws miter slot and also allows you to use the Guide Pro on your router or table or table saw (according to Bow). It is sold separately (again, it should be included in my opinion), With the price of the bar, if you buy the extender too, you are in around $125, I personally think this is a lot more than it should be, I figure you should be able to get all three for a single Benjamin. Also, you cannot (at the time I am writing this) buy the bar on Amazon, you have to go Bow-Products.com to find it.This said regarding the price, if you are on the fence at all just get the Guide Pro to start and give it a go, I think you will find it to be a great addition to the woodworking arsenal and should it prove itself to you, look at the other two pieces. Despite the price, if I had to, I would buy one again - to me it works that well. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bottom line: an excellent addition to your bandsaw *by on Reviewed in the United States July 21, 2018* I have had Featherpro products on my tables and bandsaw for over a year. They both work extremely well and have helped improve my results on both machines. When I first heard about the Guidepro, I wasn't convinced I would need one as I already had the Featherpro Duo and it does a great job at the bandsaw. My current project required me to make some veneer from stock that wasn't tall enough to reach the second featherboard on the Duo. This is where the Guidepro really shines. I can cut stock of nearly any height now without a loss of contact with the guide which is a very nice touch! Setup is simple, the one handed lock is solid, and the base has a built in ruler (etched no less!) which is handy for quick measurement and fence setup so I'm not fumbling around for the ruler "I just had a second ago." This means improved productivity in the shop.I ran one test cut on a piece of scrap to get familiar with the Guidepro. The second cut is the posted picture of a 54" long strip of cherry at a uniform 1/32" the whole length off a Resaw King blade with the Guidepro holding the stock.Overall this is a very well thought out and executed addition to the bandsaw. Setup and operation are simple, and installing and removing it is a breeze. Treat yourself and pick one up! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well designed ... but *by on Reviewed in the United States November 29, 2025* The Bow bandsaw featherboard is well designed. However, the 3/4" cam is just a bit oversized (about half a millimeter) for the mitre track of my Jet 18" bandsaw (about 15 years old). I was going to return the featherboard, but was able to grind off a small amount from each side of the cam to make it fit. Now it works perfectly, as intended. ## Frequently Bought Together - BOW Products GuidePRO GP5 - Featherboard for Band Saws - Vertical Resaw and Band Saw Guide with Silicone Feather - Provides Greater Feed Control - Woodworking Tools and Safety Accessories - BOW Products Feather Extension Kit GP7 - Adds 4 Inches to GuidePRO GP5 Featherboard for Vertical Resaw or Band Saw Guide - Woodworking Tools and Accessories - GuidePRO Sold Separately - BOW Products Anchor Bar for GuidePRO GP10 - Extends use to a Table or Router Saw - Left/Right Hand Feed Angles - GuidePRO Featherboard Sold Separately --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ma/products/87325219-bow-products-guidepro-gp5-featherboard-for-band-saws-and-vertical](https://www.desertcart.ma/products/87325219-bow-products-guidepro-gp5-featherboard-for-band-saws-and-vertical) --- *Product available on Desertcart Morocco* *Store origin: MA* *Last updated: 2026-09-11*
