wrc = Western Red Cedar

Or is it..........Whippy Radiata Crap

Western red cedar is that the cedar that they use on fence posts?well the new ones anyway. JUst a question the triton blade winder uperer can you use that on the powered saw table aswell? how much is it and can you buy it from bunnings?
cheers

Hey guys
After reading a few threads in thetriton part of this forum i have come to realise that the saw that comes with the triton powered saw table isnt of a very good quality,Is this true? I have an old aeg cs 825 heavy duty circular saw its a 210mm Would this be better then the triton that comes witht the powered saw table? and would it fit? I checked it for square and it is perfect, I checked for arbor float aswell and there was minuscule if not any.
Thanks Jack

Haven't seen it used for fence posts, but then I haven't been looking, It was often used for frame & panel doors on the past, and the width & thickness is just about right if you can find some at the right price.
Haven't seen it used at Bunnings, but you can buy it at most timber suppliers. It's a bit pricey, but you won't need much. Check it out to make sure you pick a quarter sawn bit.

Hmmmm I always thought the new fences had cedar fence posts,They use it as pickets to? can you or anyone please send a picture of their mitre sleds just so Ive got an idea of what to make?
thanks jack
