Aluminum. Wingnuts. Sliding. All these things scream "alignment" to

Not really. The aluminum part that moves is up against the heavy
casting
that is the part that securely locks to the saw. Once you have the
casting
set, the aluminum repeats accurately (it is metal on metal with
nothing
to
let it become inaccurate) when it is tightened against the casting.

If the "heavy casting" only connects at the front and doesn't continue
to the
back, there is room for error. Beisemeyer is one piece so there is
nothing to
get whacked out, other then the pair adjustment set screws. They're
easily
adjusted and really don't take much abuse anyway.

You're speaking about that which you know not.

That's why I'm asking, dummy.

My Unisaw has a Unifence and it
doesn't get any more "whacked out" than a Biesemeyer.

That's not what I've been told before and primarily why I went with the
*B*I*E*S*E*M*E*Y*E*R* instead of the *U*N*I*F*E*N*C*E*.

And yes, I've used a
Biesemeyer (which you misspelled, btw) many times; my father and my
buddy
both
have one.

Sorry, my speelczecher doesn't do trademarks. Geez, what a maroon!

If you're convinced that a Biesemeyer fence is superior to a Unifence then
you should stick with a Biesemeyer. It doesn't appear that any amount of
anecdotal evidence is going to persuade you against confirmational bias.
In all likelihood the performance of either fence is so close that, in the
end, it comes down to personal preference.

Were I convinced that one were superior I wouldn't have asked the
question. Speaking of bunched panties!

If I weren't of the opinion that you seemed biased that one *was* superior
to the other one I wouldn't have made my comment.
