If you own one please tell me how you like it, is it well made and accurate?

Love mine. Rock solid, versatile, and I can baloney slice 3/64" veneer consistently. I waited it out and got mine during a $100 off promo, but I wouldn't have been disappointed had I paid full price. Laguna has videos covering set up and use on their site. Check them out if you haven't already.

It has really changed my ability to resaw accurately. I really like mine on my MM20.

It was really a significant step up over the MM20's stock fence.

It's a great addition to the saw. I picked mine up when it was on sale on the Amazon site.

If you are using a 14" BS, with crowned tires, correct the alignment. With a sharp blade, if cut is to the right (facing saw), bring blade forward on upper wheel. It cut is to the left, track blade towards back of wheel.

Rich it really does work well in moving in precise increments. And it does that VERY QUICKLY as well.

Thanks for the replies guy. Between your comments and others from some different forums I think I'm sold. I have not had anyone who owns a Drift Master say anything bad about them.
