Report on Kreg bandsaw fence

Bill Tindall, E.Tn.

It comes ready to install on delta machines. On others, like my Powermatic, new holes for mounting bracket may need to be made. The aluminum in this bar does not drill well. I had to use a lubricant for machining aluminum to keep chips from sticking to drill. However, once installed it seems to be a quality product and vastly better than the frail fence I bought with the Powermatic saw.

I bought the fence for sawing tenons. The fence squared up readily. I think it is going to work well, but that remains to be seen.

I like my Kreg BS fence. I have one from before it was Kreg. The aluminum pieces are likely hard anodized which makes drilling and machining more difficult.

Glad that went well. I was concerned you were going to drill into the bandsaw table. Figured you were smarter than that.

I think you will like the fence.

I have the "point fence" attachment and it drives me nuts. Something about turning the wood activates my dyslexia and I go the wrong way.
