Can anyone recommend a good fence extension jig or has a DW744s and has redone the fence to accept extensions/attachments?

The saw has a very simple rectangular fence and
before I started drilling and tapping holes in it I was wondering if anyone else had some good ideas or knew of an aftermarket attachment that I could copy and make myself. Since I don't have any money :(

Saw this on craigslist for the phoenix area.
Still not sure on what a great price for hardwood
is since I'm still used to HD and Lowe's...probably why I don't have any money.:p

Can't afford it. But, wanted to know if that is a good deal or not.

I don't like to buy S2S lumber because it tends to warp too much by the time it's ready for use and since it is probably already surfaced to 13/16, you would have to remove quite a bit to get it flat and straight.

HOWEVER, for some uses, it doesn't matter as much, and it looked like all together, that bunch of lumber was being offered for a pretty good price. Not a steal but less than you can buy the stuff at the going rate.
