Just to be wierd, I'm trying an Incra Jig Ultra fence on my old
Craftsman saw. With a $40 Freud Diablo blade, I set the saw up for a
1" rip cut. I put a pair of calipers on it and measured out 0.998".

No foolin'.

I'm going to set up a removable fixture to be able to swap the Incra
back and forth between the router table and the tablesaur.

The only complaint that I have with the Incra is that the fence is
attached to an arm that is either 16" or 24" long, witch slides back
and forth in the positioner. If you have the saw set up for a 24"
cut, the arm hangs out 24" from the right side of your saw. If you
walk around the saw quickly with this piece hanging out, you run the
risk of damaging some delicate parts of your anatomy!

what I did:
from biesemeyer's web site I bought a cosmetically blemished fence.

watch this page:

and sooner or later one will show up.

I made rails from locally purchased steel.

it works great.
