Don't need a fence at all really. Pivot board works great.

'Splain "pivot board' ... that's a new term to me. Is it another name for
the rounded thingy that gives you a pivot point as you try to follow a
line?


Board on its edge, square to the blade, at the proper distance. Bullnose on
the edge toward the blade has its closest approach to the blade at the
bottom of the gullets.

Any standard book on bandsaws will have pivot blocks or boards demonstrated.
