I do it this way because that initial setup gives me an opportunity to quickly test the fence’s ability to lock down consistently each and every time. Once the fence is roughly aligned, I’ll move to a more accurate system for the final adjustments. I just use my finger to make sure the fence is parallel with the miter slot. When I do the initial setup of a fence, I’m not really picky. Alignment of the fence is accomplished by tightening down the 8 screws that hold the positioner in place on the far right side of the saw. Everything was going smoothly until it was time to align the fence with the blade, which I usually align with my miter slot. The kit came with a excellent DVD as well. The system was pretty straight forward and the instructions were clear.
After all, Incra has a reputation for unparalleled precision and accuracy and doesn’t want a little more accuracy. So why did I upgrade the fence in the first place? I was very happy with my Powermatic fence, but I really liked the idea of micro-adjustability and increased accuracy. They are, after all, just one man’s experience. So please take my comments with a grain of salt. But I do feel the everyday-man approach can sometimes be much more informative than the formal, over-complicated, and “out of touch with the real world” scenarios we read about in many publications. That doesn’t necessarily indicate how it will work in your hands. All I can do is tell you how a product worked in my hands. I never claim to be a real “reviewer.” I don’t have standardized testing procedures and I really don’t care to. I certainly do owe everyone an explanation.īefore I go into the details, I would first like to talk about product reviews. Many of you soon noticed that I was back to my old Powermatic fence shortly thereafter. If you’ve followed the videos in order, you will notice that in Episode 30 – Table Saw Outfeed Table I was very excited to have this high end fence on my table saw. Many of you have emailed me about my experiences with the Incra LS32-TS Table Saw Fence System.
