    Warped Unifence ** UPDATED **

    A few years ago, like many on here, I was able to get in on the Lowes clearance of their Unifence stock. Unfortunately, the fence is slightly bowed in the center. I haven't measured yet, but it's between a 32nd, and a 64th. Enough to cause saw marks on my stock. Looking for ideas on how to...

    Warped fence on a CMS

    Hey guys, sorry it's been so long since I have been here, I hope to be back in full effect pretty soon. I got out in my shop for the first time in several months (I know, I know) and the fence on my miter saw seems to have warped. Is there any way to square it back up again, short of adding...

    Warped Plywood

    Ok, I go to a reputable wood dealer buy nice 3/4 plywood. Bring it to the shop, store it flat, cut it up and notice that it is bowed or warped. This happens frequently. Is it something that I have to learn to deal with? Am I doing something wrong? or what?:oops: Thanks
