Brandon,

“?the best plan I could come up with was to pull the rip fence all the way towards the infeed side and align the sheet to that. The first pass I could clamp the infeed side to the table so that was ok.”

Regarding your comment in bold italics: Since you do not mention the outrigger or referencing to the xcut fence, it appears you used the rip fence as reference. If so, do not clamp material to the sliding table when using rip fence - I assume that is what you clamped you, as I can’t think of an alternative.

If my assumption is correct, then be aware that while using rip fence, slider can be used for support but not for guiding the material. If properly adjusted the trajectories of the rip fence and the slider are diverging. From infeed side the trajectory is a narrow “V”.
