This is listed on eBay today as a 10ER rip fence. It might actually fit a 10ER but it is not from Magna. Has anyone ever seen one like it?

I saw that earlier today also and have never seen one before. I sent in a question to the seller to find out if it actually will fit a Model 10 table. He has a 10ER extension table for sale also. I haven't received an answer back yet.
To me the rear lock doesn't look like it reaches low enough to hook under the rear of the table.

We are talking 10ER here. There were/are no clones of the 10ER.

It looks an awful lot like the fence for my very old Craftsman table saw.
The rear lock on this one captures an L-shaped aluminum bar that is mounted (obviously) on the rear edge of the table.

This is a nice little table saw for someone who needs to be mobile (like an RVer or Snowbird except that it is very heavy.

I think you nailed it Dusty.
Now the question is will it actually work on a 10ER (I doubt it). The lister not know what he/she actually has? It will be interesting to see if Russ gets an answer to his question to the lister.

The table top is 16"x10" . FWIW: The miter bar fits snugly in the miter track, no slop; better than my Shopsmith tables.

Craftsman used to sell some really good stuff, back in the day. Do you know the vintage of your saw, Dusty?

Not exactly but it was given to me by the owner of the mobile home park I lived in from 1959 to 1962. I bought a motor for it then and that motor is on one of my power stands (2nd belt stander) now and still works.

I received an email back from the seller. It came with a Model 10ER and he thought it went with it but had not actually tried it. He has removed the listing and thanked me for asking about it.
I let him know it may belong to an old Craftsman Table Saw. Thanks Dusty for identifying it.
After so many years it is common for parts of different tools to get mixed together. I have quite a collection of non-Shopsmith parts that have come with my restoration purchases.
