Shop Redux

I use my TV to play DVD or VCR of woodworking shows. It's great to watch wood turning technique & the apply what you've seen.

Ok, for all the picture hounds, I figure I would put it here.

So far the height doesn't appear to be a problem. I can actually see the blade better at the downward angle. I added a 6" board to the back of the saw, as I didn't want to put miter slots in my work table. Also I am not sure where a lot of the fasteners were below the surface of it. The table comes in at around 1/8 lower than the saw, according to where you roll it, guess my floor isn't perfect flat I want to build a good crosscut sled next and a few other items for this saw. Other than that, I am one happy camper.

I have seen a lot of shop pic's here.

But what I want to know is......How do you keep them so clean? You guys got Shop Gremlin's that come in to clean.

ya lovin that saw yet steve?

[Steve Southwood]

Allen, I would marry it, if I could.

John, it is actually dirty. Little embarrassing posting that picture.

[allen levine]

my only problem with it is I dont have enough suction when I forget to close any other gate. I get alot of sawdust accumulating inside the body at the bottom. The overhead blade guard completely eliminates any dust blowing back in my face(enough that I never notice it anymore as long as IM not cutting an edge).
If I clean the dust collector daily, keep the filter super clean inside, and shut all the gates, Im ok, but Im too lazy to address the collector every day.
when I work with all the saws, Im also too lazy and too senile to remember to close the other gates.
I guess if I put in electronic gates(Im too cheap for that), Id be better off.

[Steve Southwood]

I think the electronic gates can be built cheaper than bought? I remember seeing it somewhere. I am going to do a "Walmart rig" of my DC for now. I need to always have a hose on that saw, period.
