Craftsman 10" table saw - need fence/clean up advice - PICS!

Hi guys.

I just inherited a craftsman 10" table saw. 113.298720C

It has most of the main pieces including extensions for both sides!

I have the original fence but I don't have the fence rails or the power switch.

I can get the original fence rails on ebay, but I'm considering a 'upgrade'. The delta T2 fence kit seems to come up a lot for this saw.


ALSO...

The saw has been stored in a shed for a few years and it's had some moisture at it. The surface of the table is a little rough. no blistering. It's just a little discolored and not silky to the touch. Any suggestions on how to best clean that up?

What do you guys think?

The Delta T2 looks like a light duty Biesemeyer fence. It's far superior to the original Craftsman fence.

You could just build a Biesemeyer clone. That's what I did. A few pieces of angle, a bit of rectangular tubing, plus a little welding and you can have a fence that's every bit as good as a Biesemeyer.
