I have an older Delta Contractors Table Saw with the 'old style' fence with round rails on the front and back of the saw. What can be done to improve the fence, without buying a better system? I'm going to try to clean and lubricate the fence tonight, but it has been hard to slide back and forth ever since I got it.
Is a sliding table attachment on this type of saw useful? I found one used for a decent price, but I'm not sure it would really be much benefit after thinking it through. It looks like it is more for cross cutting. I have a miter saw and a radial arm saw, so cross cutting on the table saw seems unnecessary. My near future plans include building some cabinets, so I may be better off building a better outfeed table instead of investing in the sliding table.
Any advice or thoughts are welcomed, since my thoughts seem rather scattered this afternoon.
Thanks,
Adam
