  1. Very nice job Steve.
  2. I use clear packaging tape.
  3. Very nice
  4. Sorry Carl I was referring to the OP and what he cut out instead of the picture frame.
  5. What no picture.
  6. Nice pattern and a great job cutting it.
  7. Yea 631 miles for me. A little too far but I would love to go.
  8. Mark I have a good friend that lives in Winchester. I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area. I now live in Parkersburg West Virginia.
  9. Start my bathroom remodel so I can get all of that stuff out of my shop and make more room. I would also like to add another tool.
  10. Hi Jen welcome to the Village. Sorry to hear about your loss. Sounds like you got some good suggestions. Good luck and looking forward to seeing it finished.
  11. I am always blown away by your work. Another great piece.
  12. Congratulations, I can't wait to hear your review after you use it.
  13. I cut both ways about equal.
  14. Merry Christmas from West Virginia.
  15. I tried both. It is easier to feed the blade through the top but harder to attach the blade on the bottom. So I am also a bottom feeder. I am using a DeWalt 788.
  16. DeWalt Type 2 Price 4.0 $500 isn't bad but still a good chunk. Vibration 4.5 no vibration until you get close to max speed then it's still not much. Noise 4.8 very quiet, about the same as my wifes high dollar sewing machine. Blade change ease 4.5 very easy to change blades top or bottom feed. Durability 4.0 I have only had it one year and it runs like the day I first used it. Table tilt gauge accuracy ?.? have not used it yet. Variable speed 3.0 has 6 preset speeds. Would be nice if it was like a rheostat. Table width/length 4.0 nice size table, 20 inches deep. Warranty 4.0 3 years, better than a lot of other things we buy.
  17. If it's set up like the DeWalt check the wires on the speed control behind the switch.
  18. Great idea Travis, can't wait to see some results.
  19. Very nice Kelly. I'm sure he will love it.
  20. The first thing I did when I got my saw was remove the hold down foot. Welcome I hope the saw works well for you.
  21. Spiral blades are all I use. I have a few sizes but like the new FD 3/0 spiral best. For me they are easy to control and easy to cut straight lines with. I can actually cut a straight line better with a spiral than a flat blade. Like others said let the blade do the work and don't force it. I cut three 1/4" pieces plywood stacked and 3/8" hardwood for my crosses and the 3/0's do a fine job. Good luck and I hope you like them.
  22. I got some at Harbor Freight.
  23. I stack three 1/4" pieces of plywood and cut around half speed. I have a friend that does the same but cuts close to full speed. It's whatever you are comfortable with.
  24. Very nice job. How did you like the 3/0 blades?
  25. Very nice. That makes me want to try and make my first box.
