    Yeah, which fence? Rip or miter?

    If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to treat all problems as if they were nails.

      For miter fence on sliding miter table:
      There is a guy selling slides on eBay for the sliding miter table. He has both slides listed but you can also buy the upper slide (no longer available though most parts sources). The upper slide is part no 661844001.

      for rip fence:
      the same seller (mowermon) has had replacement tips - complete assembly or just the main tip part listed on eBay.

      FYI, you might just get more action from your post if you are more descriptive of your problem and not just state ‘bt3000’. Just say something like ‘rip fence won’t lock’ or ‘miter fence not accurate’. After all this is a section of the forum dedicated to the bt3000 - That is either an engineering marvel or a piece of junk and believe thee me, I have called mine both at various times.

      It sounds to me that your problem is with the rip fence and the part that should lock to the rear rail.

        Thanks for the answers. Have been out of town sorry did not reply sooner. the guides i speak of are the rip fence and they are at the t handle end. two plastic pieces that screw in and are adjustable. bought new clamp for opposite end that was broken from mowermon. last i checked he didn't have the guides at t handle.

              Do you have Ryobi service center near you? That's where I go to get Ryobi parts. The one in town is actually an appliance repair shop, but they can order parts tey do't have in stock.
