BOW Products 46” XT XTENDER Fence - T-Track Table Saw Fence System with Multiple T-Slots for Woodworking Accessories - Fits Portable, Cabinet, and Bandsaws - XT546 (Fence Only)

I have nothing but applause for this fence. My table saw is safer and performs like a larger model. This fence combined with featherboards, roller guides, and or anti kickback accessories instills greater confidence. It is very well made (heavier than expected), with a great dark gray finish and everything attaches easily and moves smoothly. I considered making my own but when calculating the cost of quality materials and time to fabricate, I quickly realized the bow fence was a wiser option for accuracy and compatibility with other tools.

I put one of these along with the fence clamps, feed supports, and feather boards on my DeWalt contractor saw. From the first cut, the benefits were clear in terms of safety and ease of use. Feeding larger work pieces into the saw became simple and safe from the start. All the standard cautions about table saws apply but you know that already. The components are very sturdy and well-made. The instructions are clear and installation is fast and very easy. I can move mine from saw to saw with very little effort. It also works on my band saw which is a huge plus. Fully equipped the Bow fence is about $300 which for me was well worth the cost.

I wanted to review the fence of Bow Products.I just bought the fence and 2 clamps.Fast Shipping, I supposed to get it on Saturday, I got it a day earlier, on Friday.The cardboard is super heavy and stiff. From the moment you take it into your hands, you see that the Bow Products Company did not cut any corners. Looks like they want to make sure that there is absolutely zero chance for any damage or bend of the fence in the shipping. Just the packaging itself is probably worth $10.The fence is heavy and solid 1 inch thick aluminum.Quality! You are going to see it right away.I have the 10 inch metabo hpt jobsite saw ($450). The saw is stationed in the basement of my house, I have all the space I need. I am using 8 foot long outfeed table and I am currently building 4 foot infeed table.Wait! You do need to buy this fence - you have the support tables. Wrong!I also have 12 inch single bevel meter saw and circular saw with the aluminum guide for longer cuts. I am not planning to spend hundreds of dollars for the track saw - I like using my table saw. I want to be able to cut entire sheet of plywood by myself on the table saw.Installation took 5 min. Position the fence accordingly and use the clamps.I did have a little problem with my original fence. The "low fence" or "flip support" part of my original fence for wider pieces (mostly plywood) was getting in the way of the clamps and if I wanted to cut something wide, I would have to take the Bow Fence off , flip the support, reattach Bow fence - too much hassle. I am lazy, I do not want to disconnect and then connect - the Bow Fence will stay in place on my saw! I permanently disconnected flip support and I cut wide piece of 3/4 plywood, which I can slide underneath from either side of the fence for support for wider pieces.The original fence is 23 inches long. The Bow Fence is 46, so I am doubling the "travel time" of the workpiece against the fence. I am using it mostly for infeed. (21 inches on the infeed and 2 on the outfeed).In the future, I might get some upgrades for my table saw like zero clearance insert, feather boards, etc. My argument is this: "This fence should be Number 1 upgrade for any small/compact/contractor/jobsite table saw". This upgrade should be done before any other upgrades are even considered.The way that I am using table saw is probably completely different that an average person.Because I am absolutely terrified of it, I like to stand far away from the saw. I use two long push sticks (each one is about 42 inches long), plus I stand at 6'1'', so I have a little longer reach. This fence fits the bill perfectly for "far away" and accurate work.This is one of those GENIUS ideas ("FENCE IN YOUR FACE") that ALMOST no one thought about it. Get it, you will absolutely love it!

I use this on my standard table saw. It's great for adding feather boards on the top to keep the boards from kicking up.Even better, it fits on my Harvey Big-Eye fence without having to use any clamps. You simply remove the aluminum high/low fence and replace it with this one. No modifications or clamps are neededOf course wIth a normal table saw fence you will need to use the clamps.

excellent extension to smaller table saw, it definitely helps getting a more straight in feed and out for smaller saw like mine, I also like that fence width is exactly 1 inch so you can still use your saw measurement system by subtracting 1 inch. It is very easy to attach and detach with the clamps and I leave the support pieces on. Overall I am very happy with this purchase

Excellent quality. Would be a five star review if the price was less.

I wish I had bought this sooner! The longer fence and feed supports have made my jobsite table saw much more accurate.

I use a DeWalt 10" jobsite table saw due to space limitations in my shop. But this fence, along with the XT featherboards and dovetail clamps, significantly improve the saw's capabilities. The #1 complaint about jobsite saws is the short runup to register against the fence. However, this can dramatically improve that. I have been able to work with much larger sheets on a small table saw.The fence is much taller than the DeWalt saw's built in fence, so a lot more techniques are possible, too.It's no panel saw, but it can expand the small shop to some pretty incredible levels, if the operator is smart.
