Default Is it worth fixing Jet miter gauge?

I realize this is a really old post, but I just ran across it because the pin fell out of my miter gauge during a move. After reading it and all the replies. I was set to buy a new one because I didn't find replacement pins on any of the parts or Jet website. I went over to Lowes and bought a package of 1/4" roll pins for $.98. (2 pack) drove one in and problem solved. the gauge works perfectly and I don't think I'll ever need the 2nd pin.

You will need the second pin just after you forget where the second one
is it.

Throw it away not. You'll save yourself a lot of grief down the road.
