As I mentioned in another thread, I’s gots me a Delta 36-6000 series for a bargain of a price. It’s a contractor saw with a 24” table, and not without its quirks. The biggest one by far is that the rip fence is utter schlock. Not only that I had to take apart & fix the clamp assembly to set the rotating pin right (it was popping out of alignment and the clamp would’ve crooked and not work as it should), but it also that the fence won’t clamp true square. Ea time I need to make a rip cut, I end up spending time with a caliper to make sure the fence is parallel to the blade. So far the only somewhat quick fix was to screw a strip of HDPE to the fence to reduce the friction.
I’ve been looking into replacing this junk, but couldn’t find anything compatible for cheaper than $200. And that’s more than I paid for the saw. My question , therefore, is how you experienced folks deal with these issues and if there’s an affordable solution to this ?
