Everyone

This thread inspired me to make my own fence. Up to now I have been using the stock fence that came with my MiniMax 16" bandsaw.
I haven't tried the fence yet. When I do so I will update you.

Dave

Dave,

Modify your UHMW part so that it's not exactly touching the table. You need to leave room for sawdust to go somewhere. Otherwise it looks good.

Really? I must not be very good at searching because I came up with nothing in regards to home brew fences.

That UHMW sure looks slick, going to look for some.
Also a really good idea attaching it to the existing fence, so obvious but did not think of that.


Here's some. Just don't forget to offset the face of the UMHW from the plywood side/base to allow for a rabbet at the bottom to clear the shavings/dust.
