what do you do to make sure the portion of the board exiting the back edge of the saw blade doesn't make contact with the blade when you need to angle the board in a way that would push the back of the board closer to the blade? I hope that makes sense.
It actually does make sense to me lol, but I’ve never had that problem scribing boards to a wall or ceiling. but if the angle of your scribe line is that extreme where it would cause you to hit the back of the blade, either use a jig saw for that, or just cut close enough to the line with the table saw and finish it up to the line with a block plane or power sander.
Hey, 2 questions. When using the digital angle reader, does it matter if your table saw sits on a slightly slanted garage floor? I’m having a ton of trouble cutting straight lines on my table saw. I have a delta. I’ve watched UA-cam videos about zeroing.. it still cuts a bit slanted. Not noticeable unless I’m making a box, then. I get a small gap. Any tips? Thanks
It doesn’t matter if the floor is not level at all. Once you place it on your saw top and hit the zero button, that becomes the level 0 position. Then when you put it on your blade, it reads the angle in relation to the table. As far as cuts not being straight, check your blade for runout and warping. Also makes sure you are using the correct blade for the type of cuts you’re making and the material you’re cutting as well. No one blade really “does it all”. I have a video of how I set up my table saw on my channel if you haven’t already seen it, hopefully that will help.
@@kb6dxn not everyone has a bandsaw, and as I mentioned you can use a jigsaw but it’s much slower. This technique is not for everyone,however it’s a method used by pros for decades because of its speed and accuracy at the jobsite. Don’t think that bandsaws or jigsaws are any less dangerous, I’ve seen plenty of accidents on with both of those machines. Anything can be dangerous without lack of knowledge, technique or being distracted.
I know you already know this but you need a few sound deadening panels throughout the shop. It will vastly improve with the echoing.
That and more junk everywhere. The ultimate solution to echos.
Good tip thanks

The insane dust from a normal circular saw is what prompted me to buy a track saw.

@@AnthonyScolaro1 will do. Thank you!
It’s good that 99% doesn’t know the trick. It’s fast and effective but very dangerous.
Everything in woodworking is dangerous. This method is used by the best of carpenters and has taught for many decades.
Can I buy your tso mft extension table attachment you don't use?
Who said I don’t use it. It’s on my mft for a reason. Go to the description box and click on my TSO link and you can purchase one there.
You must be Italian you saw things three times and add in the hand signs
Better to use a bandsaw or jigsaw
