Greg, thanks for this. I had grand plans of slicing thin veneers, etc. but I’d settle for being within 1/8” of my desired thickness, then off to the planer. My current homebrewed fence is just a tall piece of UHMW plastic on a wooden support. With big blades, I don’t notice appreciable drift. In response to your first line, I’d have to say that I don’t believe in correction more than I do. I think I’m just kind of unhappy with the performance of my saw in general; and I’m looking for a way to get me interested in fiddling with it. I tend to do this; if I can get a new toy for it, I’m more inclined to do some work with it.
