Biesemeyer Fence Installation 

Aw man, super frustrating! Sorry to see you running into these issues. Glad that you have a workable solution, though! I'm thinking about upgrading my fence as well, so as usual, great to see you being a few steps ahead doing all the Trailblazing! As far as I can find, you're the only one doing comprehensive fixes/tweaks to your G0771 on RU-vid, so thank you and keep up the good work!

I just installed a 52” Biesemeyer on an 87 Unisaw…same problem! Pissed me off cause I spent so much time making the side table and slotting the holes for it. Why do they give that dimension in the manual? Also, mine came with a little template but it’s not tall enough! I heard they make them in china now. I’m sure that’s part of the issue! Looking forward to having it all dialed in.

Hi Thomas, I just ordered a Delta 36 T 30 T3 from Lowes. I need a longer fence to the left [ 24 " [ so I found a source for the 3x2 rectangular tubing . I need 70 " from end to end on my saw and 6 foot of the material comes out to $25.00 and the angle iorn should be about the same for front and back. Those allen head screws you have can be taken out one by one and just countersink it some more and it will stop it from banging. The fence I ordered has an aluminum face.

Glad it all worked out for you. Well done good sir,,,,

I have the exact saw, purchased the same fence and now I’m having problems mounting my start/stop switch. Any advice?

Ik you said you got different saw but did fence ever work out

What model fence? Biesemeyer makes a few...

What is the purpose of the rear rail?

Redhill counter sink holes or grade the screws down a bit.

What tablesaw did you purchase? Like it? Would you buy it again? Great video.. thanks

The one that came with my delta was a little easier to install because of existing holes in the saw itself. However, I have a similar problem with the fence getting caught in the miter slot. Thx for the tip. was also wondering if yours came with an adjustment to make the fence perpendicular to the table top. mine is a little off from square and resawing is a little off.

I just installed one of these yesterday and I’m having some of the same problems. There’s no way to adjust the fence square to the table, and I’m out of square by just a little. I’m going to try and shim the pad that rests on the tube, and I’m hoping that does it. Pretty disappointed, I was expecting more precision for the price. Also expecting more than one adjustment.

I know this is an old video, but the bolts that came with the fence and are hitting the fence in the track are probably not seated properly because the taper is hitting the straight edge of the hole in the saw table. Counter sink the holes in the table and that will solve the problem.

Exactly is the same thing that happen to me. I finally found that the sides of the fence moves up and down. I turned the fence upside-down with a block of wood under the metal and tapped the sides with a rubber hammer. Both sides move sufficient as to let the fence operate fine with no dragging. At the end I did not need any shims. I though that I was the only one with the problem. If you try the remedy you will be able to remove all the shims.

Is it worth what that thing costs?

I'm getting ready to install a bies to my jet contractors saw. The saw has threaded bolt holes that one bolt is just a smidgen off not allowing the bolt to go all the way in. I contacted Delta and they said to drill the bolt hole larger than the bolt to allow for adjustment of the rail. Anyone done this?

If you were using millimetres, you would have got that bang on! 😆

What is the music piece from 0:00 to 2:30 called, please?

Sir! I just bought my first tablesaw today. And well. I dont know what im doing. But i want a beisemeyer fence. But after all the crap you went thru. No thanks! What fence would you buy now after all this?

What did that fence run you? 800 to 1000 dollars and that's the best they can come up with. No thanks.

Was that brand new? Didn't take you very long to tear up the face of that fence. Good job though.

I used the template they now provide to set the height... Same problem. I need to shim the tube up about 60 or 70 thousandths. Washers would not provide good stability so I will get strips of metal to put under the tube near the screws. That plastic shoe thing looks poor... I left my old round tube on the back of the saw and will make an Oak block to ride on the tube.

you should check out supercooltools.com they have a fence that will go on your besemeyer rail and is a wonderful up grade

I truly suggest that all readers/ woodworking enthusiasts check out the VERYSUPERCOOLTOOLS website. Alan Little is the coolest due ever and has some amazing ideas. He has invented what i would call the best table/band saw/ router table/ anything guide related fence I've seen. His channel is ASKWOODMAN here on RU-vid. Tell him i sent you!
