Hello. I''m looking for a fence for my Makita table saw. Do you know of any brands working on this issue? Online buying is my preference. Please guide me.

 
Looks like a 2704N. 

I gave up trying to improve mine using the stock parts.  There's a limit to how much time you can spend adjusting it, when it always seems to go 'out' again after just a couple of hours of use.  I replaced the removable fence unit once but even that didn't give me much more than a year of hobby use before it was acting up again like the originally supplied one. 

There are no direct fit replacements marketed specifically for that saw, to the best of my knowledge.  Generic options can be fitted by removing the original fence, but you'll lose the convenience of the expanding rail as you extend the right side platform etc.

You're right, it's pretty hard to find. And as far as I know, it is no longer on the market. Thank you for your long explanation and effort.

Rousseau table saw stand is your best bet.

I will consider your suggestion. I can continue to do some more research. Thank you, everyone!  :)
