Saw is back together, and appear to be great. This was a gift from a friend whom had found it in a building missing parts.thank you all again for your help.

Removed/replaced saw fence adjustable base. Four star screws held fence and single nut held base. removed and installed. Easy as that. Ereplacementparts really seems to understand that I make my living with these tools. Complete selection and RAPID shipping. Great to know. I have tossed expensive tools that I should have fixed in the past. Never again.
