    I figured out the non-square fence of my powermatic bandsaw problem....

    So, I figured out why it was out of square. The pad on the right touches the guide rail and the pad on the left does not. Its like the entire attachment part of the frame is out of whack.

    It holds square when locked in place but I was ripping a few sections of a 6x6 to get a 4x4. The pressure I was using to keep the stock against the fence tilted the entire fence. If I do the with a 3/4" piece of wood, the pressure I put is at the bottom so it won't tilt the fence.

    And here we have it. The thing is bent somehow. #Dont buy the floor model unless you know what you're doing. I bought this a decade ago.

    Do you have a picture of just the bottom of the t-square head?

    Seems like something else is going on. More information is needed.
