I'm trying to be very patient with BM... Nikole just had a baby and Scott Smith is her husband, and grandpa is Nilus, so I know they're short handed as Scott is helping Nikole at home with the kids, etc, etc... But even sweet, lovable Iggy has his limits. They've had my $1700 for 2 months as of this coming Friday and I have no working saw.
Keep in mind while watching the videos, the frames per second the camera is filming changes how things look in person a little bit. The overall vibration of the saw is worse and the side to side movement of the blade is even more pronounced in person... Can you imagine trying to start a cut on a line with that blade vibrating side to side like that? I was getting a headache after an hour of cutting because the vibration was also making the piece I was cutting move so much it was "blurry" and my eyes were straining to focus on the lines I was trying to cut along.
I swear to all of you the tension is perfect. Perfect ping, no blade breakage, no flexing while cutting. If it weren't for the forward/aggressiveness pitch of the blade adjusting all by itself due to vibration, my puzzle pieces slide in and out both ways as they should. I truly appreciate the comments, ideas and input by all of you.
