Default New TS Fence w/Router Fence Attachement

Last summer I bought a new saw and sold my router fence with the old saw (Craftsman 22124 hybrid), and am just now getting around to finalizing a new router fence. My new Shop Fox W1677 came with a Shop Fox Classic Fence (Biese clone). It worked as well as my Biese but I didn't like it quite as well....didn't like the thin UHMW plastic faces, the bolt holes, or the feel of the handle,etc...mostly personal preference stuff. Anyway, I found a nice deal on a Jet Exacta II fence with the option of a router fence attachment that replaces one of the original fence faces and attaches right to the fence tube. I replaced the plywood faces that came with the router fence, and added my own tall PVC faces to the router fence. It's 40" long and only ~ 6" deep. So far I'm pretty happy with both the new TS fence and router fence setup. Still need to adjust how much the dust port drags, but so far so good.
