DIY Table saw update

Since I made the DIY table saw a few weeks back from my old circular saw, I realised two things:-


  1. What a useful tool a table saw is
  2. What severe limitations my home built one had.
The man issues I discovered were as follows:-
  1. The blade was too small. The blade in a circular saw is usually of a smaller diameter than that of a true table saw, and as such not as much protrudes above the table. This seriously limited the depth of cut I could make.
  2. Raising and lowering the blade was a major pain in the ass.
  3. The accuracy of cut was not great
So, I bit the bullet and bought a real one.

The DIY table saw is now officially retired!
