VEGAU50 Table Saw Fence System: 36-Inch Fence Bar, 50-Inch to Right

Yesterday the package arrived and this morning I installed the fence. It took me about two hours, but I have some mobility issues and took my time. I also added a bit of extra work for myself while uninstalling the old fence. I was replacing the original Jet fence that came with my Jet JWTS 10JF Table Saw.All pieces shipped as expected, and the build is good. I had no issues with unfinished edges nor other rough spots in the materials.The instruction sheet was clearly written and provided sufficient diagrams and information needed to quickly get the rails mounted to the table saw. No extra holes were needed to fit the rails to the table saw, and the leveling bolts helped quickly get the rails adjusted to the proper height. The fit of all the pieces was nicely done for a “utility” model, and the plates provided to support a table extension weren’t needed, but are a nice add for those who might need such an extension.Adjusting the fence to be in parallel to the blade was very easy; just slide the side of the fence to one of. The mitre gauge slots, bring the fence in alignment with the slot, and tighten the four bolts to secure the fence in that position.The feel of the rails is very solid. The movement of the fence along the rails very smooth. The micro adjust function works as expected, and. There was a minimal amount of adjustment needed on the gauge that marks the position of the fence in relation to the blade of the saw.I am very satisfied with the installation ease and the functionality this will add to my table saw. The new fence is more stable than the old, and has a better overall fit. I am looking forward to many years of use from this new fence.

I cannot believe what a difference this fence has made for my Craftsman 113-298240 10" table saw! Set-up took about an hour and can be done pretty easily alone. The instructions stand a little bit to be desired, but are adequate to get the job done. Once installed, the fence is dead on accurate. The only adjusting I had to do was drill two holes in the back of the fence rail to attach the hold down clip. Although it would have been nice if these holes were predrilled, it is not enough of a nuisance to take a star away. I wouldn't recommend the 50" model unless you plan on making/buying an extension table in the near future. If not, 40" of fence rail will be sticking out in the middle of the garage. You will, however, be able to safely wrangle a full sheet of plywood with the 50" version.

Good product. Works great. BUT understand, the workmanship of this product leaves a lot to be desired. I found the instructions simple to follow and the install on a Craftsman 113 model table saw took me about a half hour. The real problem is with the finish quality of the brackets. It appears to me the sheet metal brackets that support the front and rear tubes (to the extension table) as well as the end pieces for the T square are sheared to length after painting and this leaves very sharp edges. The front tube is held in place with a combination of metal and aluminum brackets. The metal portion of the brackets also have sharp edges and is not painted. The aluminum portion of the bracket just looks rough cut and sloppy. The slot for the fastening hardware looks like it was cut with a hacksaw. When assembled, contact with many of the sharp edges are limited but not imposable. If you understand that when you order this product, you will need to clean up many of the edges, apply some paint, and remove some burrs, The end result is a very good working fence for your table saw. The clamping and micro adjust feature works very well.Ending thoughts, This is still a good purchase and I will still recommend this product if you are looking for an inexpensive but very reliable fence upgrade for your saw. Just be prepared to do a little extra work before installation.Vega, You really need to step up your production quality

Received it in good condition, the box was slightly damaged and there was a scratch on the rear rail, no big deal. The instructions were good, if you have half a brain and are any kind of wood or metal man, you will have no problem. it bolted right up to my saw without alteration and the fence operates like a champ. I got the extended model so I had to build an inset table for it, but it was relatively easy. Turned my so-so table saw into a production quality machine. Worth every penny,
