I appreciate your thoughts. I too thought the mitre guide was poor, but I have my eye on an aftermarket guide anyway, and I will also be building a crosscut sled, so I'm not fussed.

I actually...

I agree, that's the thing I look at first. This particular dewalt has the steadiest fence I've seen in this range of table saw, clips down hard on both the back and the front.

Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone owns or has experience using this saw? I'm on the verge of buying it (currently $849 at bunnings). What attracts me to it is the rack and pinion fence, checked it...

The timber in question is a foot aboveground, sits on confirmed TP bearers. Due to cladding, the worst it can be subjected to is rain hitting it and running straight off - no water will pool up and...

I might give it a coat of something, just in case. It's still in good condition. I'm guessing I cant just go to Bunnings and buy a can of CCA - any suggestions on how to best approach?

Hi all,

I've got some newish 90x45 framework in the yard. The timber has all the tell-tale signs of being treated pine (it's got a green tinge, and its dressed with that corduroy type ribbing) but...
