    I have the Kapex and it's a great saw. However it has a major problem. Having those rails forward like they are, causes a big problem when you tilt the saw over at 45. The rails are then so close to the table that the cut thickness is severely restricted. This has happened many times and I find I have to use my old Makita chop saw to do the cuts.

    Yup, thanks for the helpful video. I want to replace some wornout wood center mounts in drawers built in the 50s. My concern is that the bottoms of these drawers are only ⅛ of inch thick. So there's not enough room to screw the clips to the bottom of the drawer securely. I'm thinking that adding an ⅛ of an inch sheet of plywood to the inside bottom of the drawer would give me the room I need to screw the clips up from underneath. Do you think this is a sound idea, or can you see a problem with it that I may not be aware of? Also, I am not a carpenter. I just love working with wood and making my own repairs when I can.

    Glad I saw your video. Just purchased the Milwaukee track saw and the TSO square. Planning on adding the // guide system as well. One question, when you calibrated the flip stop w the adjustable square you only did this with one of the flip stops. Did you only do one to save time and implied that you would calibrate all flip-stops the same way?

    @@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.

    @AnthonyScolaro116 күн бұрын

    @@StephenBe that’s a very broad question that I get all the time, so this is the best answer I can give. it all depends on the area and what the going rates are in that area. For a job like this, if it’s only for one closet, I know it takes me a half an hour to do it but there’s travel, tool setup and tear down after, and is there any demo of the old closet shelving? After all that is taken into consideration, I take my daily rate and charge accordingly for how long I will be at the job, plus the cost of materials.

    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.
