What are you all using. Materials, the good the bad , pre bought ? Anyone here making adjustable ones here ?
I made a few jigs already for my Dewalt 7491 but have not been put to a lot of use yet. I made the runners out of a mystery hard wood from slats on a bed frame. I may have to re do the jigs as I found some "out of square issues with my saw.
I think I have it squared up as good as a job site saw can be. There was some play in the motor housing I finally spotted and fixed that.
It was not terrible and not until I tried doing some more precise cuts did I notice,
I bought this saw to replace my old cheap model craftsman which honestly and surprisingly was a pretty true cutting saw the plastic base deteriorated so I needed a replacement . I was going to build a 2nd shed and found this 7491 used for 1/2 price. up front it seemed ok and some of the first few projects went fine. Then I crunched the numbers and found it not worth the savings and just bought a pre made shed.
Anyhow looking to improve my wood skills
