Incra is terrific but it takes up a lot of space
to the right of the blade.

I have had an Inca on my tablesaw for years. It originally was on my Jet contractor saw and now sits on my C-man zip code saw. I love the accuracy and repeatability; but as mentioned, it consumes a lot of space. In my first shop, which was 12×16. I had to be very creative on how cuts were made. My current shop, well I am spoiled and blessed. it’s 25×30 so no more dancing with the tablesaw. If you have the room, buy a incra, if not, a beismeyer or vega would be great alternatives

Buy a Unifence if you can find one, Delta doesn’t make them anymore but they should.

With my shop setup if I used the Incra fence I’d have to cut a hole in my outside wall.
My personal preference (for what I do) would be the uni-fence. I like being able to pull the way back when ripping. There no need having all the fence sicking all the way out there beyond the saw blade.

This is where SawStop screwed up. SawStop should put uni-fences on their saw.

I was afraid someone would say that. lol. I would look at it and think, “I can make this work, I can make this work, but it didn’t work like I wanted it to. As of NOW, the Vega Pro 50 is the one I’m really thinking about.

I have the 28” Vega fence they made for Powermatic saws back in the 90’s. It’s rock solid. I doubt I’ll ever own another fence, if anything I’d buy the longer bars for more capacity.

Wasn’t someone selling one on here recently?

To me, a $400-500+ fence doesn’t make sense to put on that saw. I replaced the old jet lock fence that came on my delta with a new delta T3 fence system a few months back. It’s a great fence and only cost $200. I like it better than the older vega I use at work. It’s smooth and locks down straight. You would have to modify it to fit (new holes), but it wouldn’t be difficult. I agree with the unifence if you can find one too though.

I found the Vega Pro 50 on Amazon for $280. That’s the one I’m going for in a couple of weeks if all goes well/

I have had the Vega Pro 50 for years and love it. As stated it is rock solid and has the micro adjuster built into the fence!

You should be happy with your purchase.

I put that Delta T-30 on my old 113. Seems to be decent quality, granted I haven’t gotten to use it much since.

I couldn’t agree more. The Delta T3 is about the best bang for the buck going in a new fence, and seems prudent for that saw. If you can score a deal on a good used fence, that’d make sense too.
