I assume that most any fence from a similar machine would work, maybe I should just order a Grizzly replacement fence for one of their machines?
OK, figured out how to attach a picture of the shaper.
I have been toying with the idea of making one, but was wondering if there was much advantage to a "factory" type fence with the chip collection hook up and or adjustability of the two sides independently of each other?

That's what I'm using on my homemade router table. But if you're opposed to that, I'd check ebay. I've seen several OEM fences there from table saws that people are selling after upgrading to a better fence.
