Default Short vs Long Rip Fence

There is a third option: using a sled or jig to ensure that the board
travels in a straight line parallel to the cut line.

I built a simple board sled (follow the link below for a pair of
photos) and use it whenever I have any doubt about the stock feeding
straight along my normal fence.
