Where could I purchase a rip fence to replace the one that came with
my Craftsman table saw.It is not a large saw,more like a bench top
model that came with a stand.It presently has one that has the quick
lock.The fence itself doesn't seem to always lock in a squared
position.Would like to purchase another one if I could find one.Any
input concerning this manner would greatly be appreciated.


============================
My question really concerns your saw itself... if it is small..like a
benchtop tablesaw I would say, off hand, that spending
even 100 buciks on a replacement fence would be a waste of money...

Jeff mentioned the Vega.... and although I run a Biesmeyer I have
NOTHING bad to say about the Vega... not a thing... but I know that
even the Biesmeyer home fence is 36 inches in lenght...(not sure on
the Vega.) ..and the Biesmeyer commercial is about 40 inches. BUT if
your saw is really a benchtop the lenght of the table is pretty
short... maybe 20 inches...your will have a hell of a lot of fence
sticking out over the edge of the saws rear edge.
