Title: Its arrived
Post by: jimbo on June 14, 2010, 10:26:36 pm

My new saw arrived yesterday afternoon, I unpacked it, took about an hour by the time all the carton was cut down to a managable size, it was fully assemble apart from adjustable legs, today I made a stand for it and have screwed it to the top, it is a very smooth saw to use, I cut some animal families out of 27ml. thick MDF and it powered through it no trouble, the lifting top arm will also be very useful, the only thing I have found is it has no dust port, have put something on to take some of the dust away but it will need something better, will post some pics when I get time

Oh Jimbo, you just go with that.  Please pictures as soon as you can.  I got to test drive an Excalibur and see their new baby which is only 16 inches.

All rite Jimbo! Just like any new tool, you have to work with it to get to Know it.
I know you will love it.
