WOOD magazine review

General International Rip Fence F36T52

Reviewed by: WOOD Magazine

Review Summary

High points: Strikingly similar to the Biesemeyer Home Shop fence,and a strong performer in most key areas. The right face is within .002" of parallel to the left face. Low points: This fence deflected twice as much as the Biesemeyer in the MDF test due to a slight design difference in the locking mechanism. Light-color cursor can be difficult to read; and the smallish scale is marked only in 1⁄16" increments.

…

More points: There’s no way to adjust the face perpendicular to the tabletop,but we didn’t need to—it was perfectly square to the table out of the box. Also available in a beefier commercial version.
