I recentlly bought an old Unisaw, and the Delta fence on it isn't that bad. But, the first time I had to make a real cut, other than testing the saw, I needed to cut a 2' x 4' piece of plywood, to 24" The fence only lets me lock it down, for a max cut of about 23 1/2". I could remount the rails, but it would decrease the left side cut. I Have an Jet Exacta fence, but don't have the rails for it. Does anyone know what type of 2 x 3 steel tubing should be used for the rail? I know it's 2" x 3", but don't know the wall thickness, or type of steel. Mild steel, cold rolled, seemless, etc. Does anyone have the answers for me? Also anyone know the size of the angle iron, the rail mounts on?
Thanks, I'm looking forward to making a nice saw, even nicer.
