Aaron:
Do you know the approximate vintage of the machine? Sears built 1,000's of
saws during the late 60's thorugh the 80's or 90's that fit the following
general description:

- Cast iron table
- Sheet metal table extension wings
- Sheet metal lower body cabinet supported by tapered sheet metal legs
- 1 HP motor hanging out the back with plastic belt guard (a lot of the
guards ate themselves)
- Fence made of bent sheetmetal that locks at front and rear on "L" shaped
rails
- Power switch with yellow safety key
- Dark grey paint with "L" shaped lift and crank levers arms (instead of
wheels).

I just described one that I owned for 27 years, purchased in the mid-70's
for around $250. If it is one of these I recall the model number plate is
on the left side of body cabinet, below the table extension wing. I sold it
this summer. Locate this plate and you shold be able to find the fence or
fence replacement parts through Sears or their web site. I believe they do
have product manuals on line.

NOW FOR THE HARD FACTS:
The fence is the heart of an accurate table saw. Unless this is strictly a
sentimental restoration, I would consider upgrading the fence. The fence on
the saw I owned was notoriously feeble. You will find yourself spending a
lot of time checking it and measuing between the blade and fence faces for
precise cuts. Fence upgrades are expensive but you can occasionally find
one on ebay or local classifieds. Some frequently seen brands a

- Beismeier
- Shop Fox Classic (considered a Beismeier clone. Expensive in its own
right but some folkes replace these with Beismeier, for some reason, and
sell the Fox).
- HTC
- Vega and dozens more.

Any of these have a retail price that is likely more that the saw cost new
($250+). But, again, you might pick up a used one. Nearly any aftermarket
fence would be better than the one installed on my old saw. WOOD Magazine
did a review on aftermarket fences within the past year or so and it
contained some good stuff (May '04 I believe).
