    Default Bandsaw fence

    I'm looking for a bandsaw fence to suit an old Woodfast bandsaw. Prepared to spend around $100 plus postage.
    Cheers

    I bought one of these...https://www.timbecon.com.au/sawing/b...nce-attachment, well made and fits together nicely..

    I have a bit of a challenge fitting to my old ELU, but working on the assumption(?) that your old WF has a decent apron around the table you'll be done in a half hour...

    Thanks David.
    I wasn't aware of that one. Can the fence arm be adjusted to allow for drift angle?
    Cheers

    Is it a large table?

    I have a Table Saw fence, which may be able to be cut down, but probably only suitable for a large bandsaw.
    It is in the attic, so would need to pull it down to refresh the exact details, but will do so if you are interested.

    Regards

    Bauldy,
    It's a 14" bandsaw with a smallish table compared with most newer saws of the same size. If the fence you have is a t-square style though it should be easy enough to adapt by mounting some rails. Actually, I'm also thinking about making a larger auxiliary table to mount on top of the old one to increase the working surface. So if you don't mind posting a picture I'd be grateful.

    Will dig it out a send something. It should have the Front and Back rails with it as I replaced it with a more sturdy fence.

    Default Fence

    It is much bigger than I thought and possibly is only suitable for a Saw Bench.

    You are welcome to have a look as I will try and sell it now that it is down.

    Not looking for a lot for it.
