I am going to ask this in a different way since I didn't get any responses last time.
Could someone with a Jet Xacta II fence measure the rails for me?
I have the original Xacta, and am wanting to get the shorter (32" rails) to reduce the saws footprint. (I do want to keep the option of going back to the 52" fence so the hacksaw is not the preferred method).
The original Xacta fence use a 2" x 3" front rail to clamp on. I just want to verify the Xacta II uses the same dimensions before I order the short set.

Thanks

John

If I'm not mistaken, the rails on the PCS out in my temporary shop uses a 2x3 format. I measured it with the intention of buying some steel to make longer rails for it as they were cut down "a lot" by a previous owner. I suspect that the same is true with your Xacta as there really hasn't been much variation in the tee-square type fence for "eons". But I do hope someone who has one can measure to confirm for you.
