Now to tighten the fence I pull UP on the knob/handle which forces the fence down against the table at the same time it tightens. Shop for Vega U50 Table Saw Fence System: 36-Inch Fence Bar, 50-Inch to Right online at an affordable price in UK.

I found a simple remedy to both of these problems: I removed the shaft which holds the tightening cam in place and just reversed the cam. The clip made you move it all the way off to one side. To remove the fence from the table you could not just lossen it and lift it up (Like Biesemeyer or Unifence). The difference was only about 1/8' but every time… 'Click… Click'Ģ. 359 Description PRO 40 Pro 40' Rip Capacity 42' Fence Bar Designed to fit most 10' to 14' saws, this outstanding Fence will upgrade your Table Saw with loads of great features: including exclusive Micro Adjustment, ease of installation, incredible precision, auxiliary table support hardware, and much more.

When ever you would tighten the fence it would try to lift up, the clip would hit the underside of the rear rail (preventing it from lifting), and then it would fall back down to the table. An after-market fence is a fantastic way to ratchet up the performance of a basic table saw, turning it into a precision tool. Vega's solution to this was to attach a clip on the back of the fence which reached down under the rear rail. It's only design problem is that to tighten it you push the front knob down, (like most fences) but on the Vega this motion would tend to lift the rear end of the fence off of the table. It is not one of the big names for after-market fences but it is a good, accurate T-square style fence. I don't know if anybody has a Vega table saw fence out there… I got mine used and really like it.
