I feel stupid even having to ask this, but here goes... The backstory is that I inherited a bunch of tools from my grandfather a few years ago. Over time my basement has been organized into a workshop, but I still have a small pile of odds and ends that I cannot identify.
My grandfather had two of these Craftsman Rip Fences (More info HERE (http://www.searspartsdirect.com/part-number/S3299-RF/0009/124.html?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cse&utm_term=S3299-RF&sid=SPDxGPROD&gclid=CjwKEAjw_LG8BRDb1JTxm8uP_UwSJADu_8pWhvh-98mvfMSzwF10UTBAbCZ2ZbLAgsGyVhQ_wiCkGhoC5Qrw_wcB)f rom Sear's website):

The Sears website clearly says they are for use with band saws. I inherited a 14 in. Craftsman Bandsaw (http://www.sears.com/craftsman-14-inch-band-saw/p-00932607000P?sid=IDx01192011x000001&gclid=CjwKEAjw_LG8BRDb1JTxm8uP_UwSJADu_8pWBdWmFhhF x3r3OVvEt1DtLPT2qImhtoONPIEStfcquRoCeP3w_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds), but for the life of me, I can't see how these rip fences work on this bandsaw. I am beginning to wonder if they went with an older bandsaw that he replaced with the one that I inherited.
Can anyone confirm that this rip fence is for use with a different bandsaw than the one that I own?
Thanks!
