I just got the Kreg Precision bandsaw fence I ordered and realized the fence can not accommodate having a table blade slot being parallel with the fence. All the directions and photos of it show the blade slot being perpendicular to the fence, which I didn’t even consider when I bought it. I called Kreg and they basically said I’d need to remove the fence and rail to change a blade. Seriously?
Both my bandsaws have the orientation of the blade a lot parallel with the fence.
I guess I need to make some standoffs to bring the fence rail away from the table to allow the blade to go by. Or send it back but it’ll cost $20 probably to ship it.
Seems like a major design flaw by Kreg. And they don’t have an adapter kit available. Guy on the phone basically shrugged his shoulders.
