I own one, but I don't use it very often. When I do need it, it is nice to
have.
The fence that comes with it is more than adequate (IMHO). The bit has to
be square with the fence which easy to adjust by moving the bit into
alignment with the fence (not the other way around).

Almost every one that buys the jig ends up going the $200 or so and gets the
dedicated bench top mortiser.
