    Default Carbatec Biesemeyer sytle fence

    I'm upgrade my tablesaw fence as I'm not very happy with the ezy-rip fence it came with (needs constant adjustment and doesn't always clamp square!) and am wondering what to buy.

    The carbatec biesemeyer fence is one option:

    Carba-Tec Heavy Duty Tablesaw Fence : CARBA-TEC

    Is anyone an owner and happy to share an opinion, or own a different fence they'de love me to buy instead? any suggestions are welcome

    Cheers

    Joel.

    Hi,
    I use one of these fences as it came with the Carbatec saw when I bought it.
    I am happy with mine. It can be adjusted to make sure it is parallel to the blade.
    I find it locks into 90 degrees easily.
    I replaced the standard Inches/Metric measuring scale with a very easy to read Kreg black and white Metric scale.
    Cheers,
    Steck

    I have the same experience as Steck has had. I find it to be accurate all the time.

    Another vote from me. Locks nice and square, and quick to reset.
