Kreg 20" Premium Bandsaw Rip Fence

[rkh2]

I am thinking about purchasing the Kreg 20" Deluxe band saw rip fence with the re-sawing guide and micro adjustor. The last day of the sale is July 31. I have read in some of the threads about some of you who have purchased it, however not much input on how much better than the older fence. I was very impressed with the 520 upgrade fence over the 510 one, so am really leaning towards getting the Kreg bandsaw fence. Kreg makes some real nice jigs and it looks appealing in the pictures. The last TA I attended didn't have this new fence which I was hoping for. Any responses on this fence will be greatly appreciated.

Ron:

You may have seen from my "Weekly Blog" that I just purchased this item. I haven't used it yet but one of the advantages I see in it is the extra width that can be cut using it vs the standard fence. Unfortunately the micro adjuster was not available in the timing I neede it shipped but I will probably pick this up later as I think this is also a big advantage for some of the work I do.

Good luck with your decision.
