Hi Check my post on "Cheap DW 703" Bought one and no problems, nice saw as well :D

Arrived this morning - played a bit and "tweaked" the settings. Seems to be accurate, but the 24 tooth blade will find a home in the tablesaw. Not overly loud either. 60 tooth Freud Pro now installed and cuts coving and pelmet etc. just as good as anything else I have tried. Well pleased

The Makita will not disappoint. Yesterday and today I was giving a pal a hand at trimming out a bloody awful new kitchen. The LS 1013 was top notch, easy half degrees, or less, and repeatability. Glass smooth cuts on compound angles. Superb - So good I am trying to convince SWMBO that I...

Hi You can up the BT3000 count to 3 - I have now acquired one and after some rebuilding is just about as close perfect as possible. Well pleased.

I am unsure as to the relevant legislation on the mainland; however, here in NI, anything in a retail premises is on "offer" for sale. Any retailer can decline/refuse to sell anyting to anyone - whether it has a plug or not. I suspect that similar legislation exists on the mainland. I post...
