Need help.
I have a vintage Rockwell contractor saw with a 220v motor. I got it from my father-in-law. I am not a craftsman, but I do occasionally produce adequate results at DIY projects around the house.
Well, the fence basically disintegrated. Critical plastic piece that attaches to the hook for the back rail is shattered all to heck.
The current rails are heavy (cast iron?) and round. It does not seem that I can find "just a fence" for these rails.
It doesn't make sense for me to drop $400-500 on a fence system considering my expected level of use and the age of the saw.
It doesn't appear that I can get into an Incra, Vega, Biesemeyer, UniFence, etc. on my budget.
Plus, I'm actually pretty baffled by and skeptical of the process by which I'd install a whole new fence system including rails. I'm also concerned that the state-of-the-art brands mentioned above might not "fit" my saw.
I am pondering a
Mule Accusquare.
Help?
