hello everyone... long time peruser first time poster here. i recently acquired a barely used BT3100 from cl. I am having trouble getting the rip fence aligned correctly. everything else has been working great. i can align the fence square but when i lock the handle down the rear end of the fence always pulls in towards the blade about 1/16". also there's some horizontal play in the fence when I move it. For instance if I start to move the handle side that side moves faster than the other end of the fence which causes it not to lock down square. same thing happens if I start to move the other end first. I can adjust the screw in the opposite end of the fence which keeps it parallel but then it's too tight and i can't slide the fence at all. I appreciate any help you all can give and thanks a lot for this forum... though this is my first post i've read tons of posts and you all seem real helpful and friendly and your advice thus far helped me build my first table saw project ever... a simple box! woo-hoo! but i gotta start somewhere i guess
Thanks
Thanks
