Hi,
I just received a telephone call cancelling our reservations for the Gathering.
Apparently the Sheraton has sustained too much hurricane damage and won't be
operating during the month of October.
I guess you can all expect to get similar calls.
I was unable to get through to Phil on his
Hi again,
Apparently Phil and company are out beating the bushes so to speak to find us
another hotel. Three are apparently interested so although the venue is likely
to change it seems all will proceed.

Hi,
I am contemplating my next saw purchase. I have a 10 inch table saw.
It seems to me a radial arm saw would be superior to a sliding compound
miter saw because of its greater capacity and flexibility.
The sliding compound miter saw would likely be less expensive.
What other pros and
hi the size.
the radial saw is larger on a stand and all and probebly more power.
if you don't have the space then the compound saw is the way to go.

Ladies,
Well, I know I haven't updated much, but we have to return to a sense of
normalcy sometime!
I am back to work today, and I have tons to do!
Our basement got about 6 to 8 inches of water; we were very, very close to
losing our washer and dryer, along with the furnace and water tank! We
A sliding compound miter saw is a lot more accurate. If you already have a
table saw which is also more accurate than a radial arm saw for ripping and a
lot safer then about the only thing you will use a radial arm saw for is cross
cutting.
Now that some miter saws also have depth control for
My radial saw is stationary, and my sliding compound miter is portable on
wheels. Both are fine and cut the same width, but the miter saw is more
versatile. I can't rip a long board on the miter as the radial I can set at 90
degrees and rip length wise. It depends what you all want to do
Hi Claudia,
I think you should contact the nearest FHA and HUD office to see what sort
of benefits you're entitled to, as I know that there are programs you can
access to help you with the funding of such major home renovations and
repairs.
I would also imagine that the state department has
Hi, Ralph:
Another function that the radial arm saw can do is the ability to add an
adjustable chuck to it and use as a drill press or add a buffing wheel or
wire brush wheel to clean and polish things. I had a Craftsman 10 radial
arm saw and it did all that.

Would you please elaborate on what makes a radial arm saw less accurate
than a sliding miter saw? One major reason I am considering these two saws
is that I have an aweful time cutting accurate miters with my table saw.

I think I've got the greatest family in the world. Not only do I have three
wonderful kids, one of whom has given me my first grand child (the most
beautiful little girl in the world),
but they gave me a table saw for Christmas.
I had to wait till July to get it, because it wasn't in production
The reason there is less accuracy with a radial arm saw is the saw blade
motor is suspended on a beam, which is turn is mounted to a vertical shaft
which cranks up and down. The motor also slides back and forth on the beam.
All these various support items for the saw itself contributes to less

I've had both and now only have the sliding miter saw. I don't know if I'm
giving up much width with the miter, I can cut about 16 inches with mine. If I
have to get much wider than that I'll either use the table saw or the circular
saw.
I am one that doesn't buy into the danger of one
Just to add to what Tom has said here, you can certainly cut very accurate
angles on a table saw but not usually with the standard miter gauge sold with
the saw or even an after-market or third party gauge unless it is a fairly
expensive one, in the range of a couple of hundred bucks or more.
What the hell is all of this about?
I couldn't find anything to fix and the only thing broken was the rules.

That is a great group of kids you have. We saw that model at the Woodworking
Show in Charlotte earlier this year. Only puts a small crease on the hot dog

There is an over ride switch on the saw for cutting treated or wetter woods.
Because it is sensing moisture as in
