    Fox table saw

    Does anyone on the forum own the cast iron Fox table saw available from Rutlands? I have searched the forum but can't find any review and it strikes me that you get a lot of saw for your money. My budget won't stretch to an Xcalibur, Sheppach or Jet so I would like to know if other members...

    Filling gaps

    Aragorn Thanks for the advice. I fancy the dust and glue idea, the gap is very small. What glue would you recommend. I have been using polyurethane for the main build but this may be very messy when I try and mix dust with it. Cheers The wizard
