I'm just getting into resawing with a bandsaw (Delta 14" with riser). So
far,
I've used a shop-made, flat-faced fence. It seems to work OK, once its set
up
correctly. I see commercial bandsaw fences that offer a resaw attachment,
a
device with a curved face that attaches to a flat-faced fence. The wood
contacts this attachment only at one point. I gather that point would be
aligned with the front of the blade. I have not tried this type of resaw
fence
yet. Should I? What advantages does it offer over the flat fence?

I'd pass on the pivot or curved fence. If you adjust your fence to
compensate for blade drift and your saw is setup property, you will have no
trouble making a tall flat fence suitable for resawing.

I use a 6" tall flat fence, works perfectly. BTW, in my experience, a
quality blade has little or no drift.
