Well I FINALLY did it!!!!! :smile:
I broke down & bot a new TS--- Delta 36-5100
2 Cast iron wings & a steel table 30inch rails
Got tired of constantly adjusting the Ryobi BT3000
Got the Delta set up & adjusted without too much issue.
But---a question
I'm mentally building a cross cut sled & understand the fact that getting 90 degrees out of the box for the rear fence/guard/support is probably not going to happen on the 1st try.
SO
was thinking that
a) put a threaded insert into the plywood base & drill an over size hole in the fence and use a long threaded rod or bolt so that I don't have to constantly redrill a hole as I try to make it square. Then when it's right just screw the fence down for good
OR
b) put a cam gizmo (SORTA like a cam lock for knockdown furniture) in the plywood to make adjustments easier. But haven't found one yet.
If you were making the sled what would you do & if you know of a cam gizmo could you enlighten me?
TIA
