Shop Fox W2005 Classic Fence with Standard Rails, Silver, White

My old fence broke on my table saw and the manufacturer doesn't provide replacement parts anymore. I started looking at replacement saws and replacement fences. Finally, I decided to bite the bullet and purchase the Shop Fox W2005 fence. When I received the fence, the box was pretty torn up which I have seen in several other reviews. There was some missing hardware which must have fallen out of one of the holes in the box. However, when I contacted the company, I received great service and replacement parts were sent out without question.The fence and mounting rails are pretty heavy so you will need either a helper or something to support the rails while you install them.Once I got everything installed, I did some test cuts and boy do I wish I had gotten this fence a long time ago. The fence is actually parallel to my blade which is an issue I always struggled with when the original fence was still operational. When you lock it down, it stays where you want it and the non-stick surface works great for any rip cuts you make. I am a hobbyist, so this doesn't get the same use as a commercial shop, but I do some cabinet making and accurate cuts are important, so this fence was a perfect choice for me.Before I bought it, I was a little put off by the price. Considering it was close to what I paid for my Grizzly saw back in the early 90's, it seemed like it may be overkill. However, I don't regret the decision for one minute. It is a quality heavy duty product and I expect to get many years of service.Five stars for me. I love this thing.UPDATE: While I still love the fence, you should be aware that some saws such as my Grizzly G1022 will not allow for a 45 degree cut using the new fence rails. The motor mounting bracket will not clear the rear fence rail as you approach the 45 degree setting. I did need to drill new holes during my original installation to align the rails to the holes in my saw top. Now I will have to do some more modifications to allow clearance for the motor mount. This is not a deal breaker, but you should be aware of this possibility if you are replacing your fence.

le temps d attente est très long pour la livraison. Et je ne voulait que le guide ,il n y avait aucune mention m informent qu il y avait tout le quitte qui si rattache. Mais c est parfait

Works great on my old bench saw.

I ordered this fence and rails, then watched each day by tracking it. Then on the due date it said out for delivery, but never arrived. The following day it again said out for delivery but never arrived. The follwing day the tracking said it was being returned to shipper. So I called UPS, the following day( 4 days after scheduled delivery) they returned my call and said the package was so badly destroyed thay had to open it to get the delivery information since the label was destroyed. UPS said they would not deliver the package in that condition and returned it to the shipper. So I called Amazon and told them what happened, they were very helpfull and said they would ship another right away. I told them that I had read the reviews about the poor packaging and the problems related to that. After a few days I received my new fence and rails undamaged.The installation was simple and straight forward, although none of the holes lined up with my 35 yr old Craftsman table saw. I did have to drill and tap the saw with the included drill and tap, however the drill did not make it through the first hole in the cast iron table, so I had to use my own bit. Other than having to drill and tap holes in the saw the installation was very simple and only took a couple of hours to install and set up. The fence is perfect, I could not imagine a more costly fence being any better, the rails are heavy steel and the fence is dead on every time. I installed the measured scale according to instrucions and it is dead on.I would definately buy this fence and rails again if the need should arise, however I think this heavy duty system will last for ever. I wish they made one for my band saw.

I bought this to replace the old JetLock style fence on my general 350 table saw. The saw is 45 years old, I bought it used a few years ago and those old fences with the round tube rails are completely useless. I spent more time measuring front and back of the blade than I did cutting anything. The Shop Fox rails bolted right up to my General with no need to drill or tap anything. It locks square to the blade every single time.Functionally this fence is leaps and bounds better than those old fences. It’s a Biesemeyer clone but a quality one. Though pricey I would definitely do the upgrade if you are on the fence, I regret the few years of hair pulling I put myself through. The fence arrived with 2 screws that hold the plastic faceplate broken (as if they were over torqued or cross threaded) which is why I deducted a star, otherwise 5 stars. It’s 80lbs of angle iron and square iron tube shipped in a cardboard box (plus bolts, washers, rail legs, and sticky tape), as others have said the box arrived completely beat up, torn in multiple places, straps broken and yet by some miracle everything inside was accounted for and not at all damaged.Totally recommend this product.
