hey guys i saw a delta t2 table saw fence at lowes today it looks like the beis. fence can anyone tell me if it is a accurate fence it was only $150.00 which is perfect for my budget. i have a ohio forge 1970s built saw. i know that i will have to drill holes to mount the fence do you think that its worth the time and effort or for that price is there a fence that will fit without drilling

The T2 is a t-square design that's similar, but lighter duty than the Biesemeyer. It gets consistently high marks from owners and looks to be a great value.

I don't know of any fences that'll mount without drilling unless the bolt hole patterns happen to line up. I do know that the Vega is a fairly simple installation, but it tends to cost over $200.

The T-2 fence is the best bang for your buck out there. I had one and it is a great fence. I replaced it with a Bies but only because I got a great deal on the Bies.
