Unisaw fence upgrade5/21/2023 Most fences that I see have a little saw blade shadow on the blade side where it got too closeĪll that said, I've never found it so much a problem that I'd want to change to something else. Also, at least on mine, there is no indexing tape measure on the left side of the blade If you need to switch from the fence on the right to the left (e.g., you are doing bevels on a right-tilt saw), you have to take the fence off and move it to the other side as it's not reversible (see con #1) Not a big deal, but you can't just slide it over the blade. Hard to get a jig that straddles the fence because there is no square back side and the guide extends beyond the fence in the near side height is somewhat adjustable, so you can raise enough to not have sawdust become a problem Lower one is thin so would work well if you are trimming a piece that has laminate or veneer applied The upgrade in materials might include the hardware that moves and locks the fence into position. Or if you want to go European mode, so fence stops at back of blade to avoid pinching if the wood has a little spring in it can pull the fence back so you can use as a cross-cut stop without it being where the blade is. I have the UniFence, since I got my saw after Biesmeyer came out but before Delta started putting them on.
