Basically does the same thing feather boards do, helps make straight cuts and adds some safety against kickback. I love those things, btw. I think they are about the best table saw accessory I have found. They are helpful for sheet goods, but where they really shine is in long rips of hardwood. Cutting trim pieces, for instance. 23 minutes ago, VPI said: Jealous of the whole Sawstop setup. as someone whose thumb is still whole because of a sawstop, I would pretty much refuse to touch a non-sawstop table saw. 3 Quote
VPI Posted January 11, 2021 Report Posted January 11, 2021 If I had the room, the SawStop PCS is the only one I would consider. I was leaning towards the little Pro cart one but its minimal cut capabilities did not seem worth the up charge, I guess the finger saving is the up charge. Glue Up Kit Holder for the wall. Need to run through the router and get it glued together. 3 Quote

VPI Posted January 15, 2021 Report Posted January 15, 2021 (edited) It’s a damn good thing you bought that robot driller, than would have been tough as shit to do by hand. In case anyone was wondering, I am now a Chopmaster. Edited January 15, 2021 by VPI 4 2 Quote
swt61 Posted January 15, 2021 Report Posted January 15, 2021 That is a very nice miter saw! Not familiar with that blade. Details? Quote
VPI Posted January 15, 2021 Report Posted January 15, 2021 (edited) It is the stupid expensive one that Doug recommended. https://www.forrestblades.com/chopmaster/12-chopmaster-saw-blade-80-teeth/ Found it in stock at Woodcraft along with the tiny tool bench, Forstner Bits, Glubots and blade cleaner stuff last night.

swt61 Posted January 15, 2021 Report Posted January 15, 2021 Ah, it's a forrest. They are the best blade I know of. Quote
VPI Posted January 15, 2021 Report Posted January 15, 2021 Came with a 60 tooth that was excellent at smashing, but not tuned for actually cutting. Now I need to figure out how to make a zero clearance insert without having any of the tools (bandsaw, bench top sander, skill) I actually need to make one. Quote

Why? For the chop saw? Every zero-clearance insert I've seen comes as a solid piece and you just run the blade thru. I feel confused. 2 Quote
VPI Posted January 15, 2021 Report Posted January 15, 2021 (edited) Need to build one myself. They do not sell a zero clearance that I have found. Need to cut the wood, shape it to fit, route out some for clearance and make it the proper depth to be level with the table. Edited January 15, 2021 by VPI Quote
