Craftsman Band Saw Rip Fence

I have exhausted all resources @ Sears and have briefly surfed the internet, but still no luck.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Two methods work well. One is what you would recognize as a fence with the guide perpendicular to the table and attached to another board clamped flat to the table. Another design amounts to a point, set your required distance from the blade. With this, you then angle your work (instead of the fence) so that the blade makes a straight ripping cut. Both work well. The latter is easier to use if you make a pencil mark down the board so you can tell which way the blade is pulling and angle the work accordingly.

I rip up to 13" thick on my slightly larger saw. I prefer the long fence design (not point) for cutting veneers, so first I need to determine which way the blade is pulling. A pencil mark on a scrap and a 3" long cut tells me how to clamp the fence to the table. Almost never parallel to the table. A little practice and it'll be a lot easier than trying to explain how to do it. Good luck.
