Just to close the loop on the Rip-Flip stop, mine arrived a few days ago and I installed it. Directions were good and the video I referenced earlier was also a help. One of the things I liked about this setup was that there were no holes to drill on my saw. The mounting brackets use existing bolts on my SS PCS.
I haven't used it to make any repeat cuts as yet, but it is a very clean installation and I can definitely see the benefit of using it in the future. Works as advertised in the Woodpecker video and the hardware is very high quality IMO.

ordered the Woodpeckers Dual purpose t-track, using some pieces of aluminum angle bolted it right to my unifence. a few more pieces of aluminum angle and I bolted my existing wixey digital fence to the t-track.
have some flip stops on order that should work.
the t-track was $30, and the flip stops were $12 and $15 each (ordered two different types to see which one I like best).
So with shipping I have less than $100 into it. the only thing I can't do (yet) is tie two flip-stops together like the rip-flip can.
if you want one stop shopping, it seems like you can buy their fence system for the rip-flip for the beis fence and it would bolt up to a unifence rail pretty easily.
