Summary: Delta 28-181 Rip Fence for 9" Band Saw -- Not the Greatest!! 2006-06-02
Comment: My experience with the #28-181 rip fence was disappointing, but the vendor Work Tough saw fit to refund my money after I explained problems with the product. The response was immediate, as was the refund. The vendor seemed to agree with my descriptions of out-of-square product, poor fit to the saw table, and a broken piece of potmetal on the front table guide!!

Comment: This product was delivered to me incomplete from UBID inc. not Amazon. The product was delivered 3 weeks later than promised.
I had to buy parts at my local hardware store to make the locking mechanism work.

Comment: This product does what most rip fences do. The only "problem" is that the table on the 9" band saw has no rule so care must be taken to set the fence where you want it from the blade and making sure it is square to your cut.

Summary: Not a quality item 2005-02-10
Comment: I honestly think a board clamped to the work surface would take about the same amount of time to set up and do as good a job, if not better. The thing does not fit properly, even after following the instructions in the manual. Not too well designed, even if it is being used on a cheap bandsaw. I can "get by with it and make it work", but shouldn't have to. Too hard to stabilize and adjust.I do not recommend this product.

Comment: I knew that this was going to be a less than great product but I did not expect it to be used. They didnt even bother to clean the sawdust out of it!
