hi folks...
I've got a beismeyer commercial fence on my unisaw, and I need to upgrade to
a longer rail set. The current setup is a 50" right of blade system, but
changes in the type of work I do are forcing me to more large panels and
sheet goods, so I want ot upgrade to a 96 right of fence system. Does anyone
know where to get the rail set? I;ve talked to Delta, and they don't stock
them. I keep seeing them listed in the the delta catalogue as an option, but
can't seemt o find anyone that actually knows anything about them....
Help?
--thanks

Call Biesemeyer and order them direct from Biesemeyer....they will be
most helpful and very knowledgeable. The only problem with you buying
new rails only is getting rid of your old rails. Your old rails
without a fence are worthless to most people. You might consider
buying a new 96" system and selling your old 52" system. Good luck!

What about using the old rails, or pieces of them to add a fence to other
tools like a router table?

JD,
Try this link, it has Biesemeyer accessories and should have what you are
looking for. Not sure if you are looking for just the rails or the table
and supports needed for the rails. No affiliation, just a quick google
search.
http://mikestools.com/Biesemeyer/biesemeyer_commercial_fence_syst.asp or
http://mikestools.com/Biesemeyer/Biesemeyer_table_saw_accessories.asp for
all of their Biesemeyer accessories.
They also had a 96" Unifence System

I betcha most any metal working shop could produce one relatively cheap if
you are willing to paint it.

There is nothing special about the rails. You shoulf be able to pick up
the required angle iron and rectangular stock at any metal supply place.
It's then just a matter of drilling a few holes.

==========================================
I have to agree.....the rails are sure not high tech.
A metal fabricating shop is what I would be able to make a set of
rails without any difficulty...

you can cet them from biesemeyer.com. look on their scratch-n-dent
page for deals.
you can also go to your local steel dealer and buy the stuff to make
your own for a fraction of the cost. it's all standard size tube and
angle.
