If you’ve been on the fence about getting one (no pun intended), I would recommend pulling the trigger. Don’t suffer any longer with a crappy fence that is inaccurate and does not lock square to your will cause your work to be shoddy and is often unsafe. I still love the design and the heft of this rip fence. I use it every single day (seriously, 6 days per week at least). Now here I am, about 6 years later and I still love and recommend this Vega fence.
Yes, I had to drill a couple holes into the cast iron of my table saw, but it was easy ed a cordless drill to do that. I was not prepared for the joy and confidence this one upgrade would give me. About 6 years ago, I bit-the-bullet and bought this Vega system.
But the rip fence was always the weak link, and I suffered with it from day 1. I have an old Craftsman table saw that I purchased new in the late 1980’s. Available with 26' or 50' rip capacity to the right of the blade and 8' to the left. It's designed for quick mounting by using existing mounting holes on Delta Unisaws and contractor saws, Powermatic Model 66 saws, most Sears 10' table saws and most other saws with fence rail mounting holes 8'-9' on either side of the blade (other saws may require drilling two or four mounting holes.) The fence system includes slotted front brackets to allow vertical and horizontal adjustments and jacking plates to help with leveling the fence rails.
The Vega Saw Fence System locks parallel to the saw blade, includes accurate measuring scales, maintains alignment and allows for fine adjustments. A solid, precise fence is crucial to a table saw's ability to make rip cuts safely, cleanly and accurately, but not all standard-issue fences are as robust as they ought to be.
