Leo - a solution to your sheet goods "challenge"

Nov 12, 2007 0 Replies

Saw your response to "Which Saw" and noted that you do sheet goods too and therefore "need" a table saw. Even with a decent sliding table, cutting up 4x8 sheets of ply is a PITA. The solution - the Festool plunge circular saw with it's zero clearance straight guide. Put the guide ON THE LINE, no need to deal with an offset for the distance between the edge of your circular saw's "shoe" and the closest side of the saw blade, set the depth stop to a hair more than the thickness of the ply and cut a nice straight, square to the face, edge - with NO chip out - on either face of the goods. And if you want to make cabinets no site - in an occupied house



-get their Dust Extractor (theirs and the Fein ARE NOT vacuum cleaners and NOTHING like a ShopVac or its cousins - members of the SCREAMERS family of Deafining Devices).
