Off topic, but I've always been curious as to which side of your line too cut. I've always assumed dead middle.... :? Pick a side, but not dead center. On the workpiece side of the line, you'll have to account for the saw kerf. If you stay on the scrap-side of the line, you don't have to account fo...

I have one of these. It works pretty good. My problem is compensating for blade width with my cuts. Do you have to use a square to align this thing or does it have something built in? I'm also curious if having excess track hanging off the end matters? I want a bigger track for larger pieces but so...

I know my drill bit device wasn't a "hit" too everyone, but this device WILL BE!! I've having a lot of trouble cutting wood too spec's but this thing is THE coolest!! The reviews I've read are amazing and it truly does the job of a table saw if you don't have one. It is a bit pricey but it...

A good blade makes a big difference in chipping and straight cuts, but a 1/16th of an inch is usually not the end of the world, depending on which cut it is... Mostly a 1/8th and some have been even more. I also think cutting on the furthest part of the line I draw is important too. I've always won...

Funny enough, I cut the wood for the cut table perfect. It's as true and square as you could make it..lol. that's what's so frustrating.

EL, not at ALL questioning you or anything but just so I'll know, why does the blade matter so much??

Avanti? I have, used it once and got a Diablo. This is definitely a case of buy once, cry once.

No..not Avanti..it's a off name brand. I'll get the Diablo.

I will say this too though I have no clue how it could matter, but the saw manual say's to use a 7 1/4" blade and what I just took off was nooooo 7 1/4" blade. The one I just replaced it with is!!

All I can read on it is 5/8th's. I did notice it "lifted" some small pieces of the ply Bill. Maybe it needs to be changed or I need too account for that 5/8th's number on it. I guess that's why ur the man bill. ~Patrick~ P.S.- I'm doing this on my phone and the file's are to big too post b...

One mistake I made was using the clip on my tape. It's NOT accurite (I measured against a straight edge). I own 3 tapes and all of the must be too cheap cause they were all off. I thought maybe my cut boards were off so I found a metal guide I determined is straight. The balde to the edge of the saw...

Hey guy's. Things aren't going well. It appears I cannot properly cut wood with a circular saw. I've burned through all my wood and I feel stupid as it is. It seems I'm always a 1/8th too 16th of an inch off. I've properly measured the distance from the saw blade to the edge of the show AND used a c...

I will say this. The cut table IS an invalueble tool. I would have lost my mind without it. Today is a new day

I now know what you mean Greg. I had a frustrating day yesterday. I ruined a half of a sheet of wood yesterday. I could not get the cuts at the right dimension. I absolutely refuse to give up and I can always get more wood. I would try to cut the top/bottom at 21 x 18 and every damn cut was off by s...
