ON my Delta my last is a 55 degree. I had a friend use high marks to mar 0. Just a thought, I find it easier. Dale ----- Original Message ----- From: Matt To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, January 12, 2009 3:32 PM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] what are the degrees on my compound sliding miter saw?
Hi ya, I know this sounds like a dumb question, but I've just never asked anybody to explain the degrees or numbers on each stop on my delta compound sliding miter saw. When I use it, I just throw what I am trying to copy up there and set the saw by that, or else, I'll figure it as best I can with my hands. I did go out and stick my square on there, and lined up blade so that it was at true middle or strait, or 0 or whatever you call it. Then I worked it through it's clicks to the left and right and counted. There seems to be 4 or 5 set stops which the table clicks into on either side. So you'd figure what, 10 degrees for each click? This saw also has a locking nut, which you can loosen and push it over to one side. What is that, if you have it laid all the way over? 45? 90? I read through the file from the list's web sight... love those files by the way. This was a file about cutting angles with the table saw. Still, I need more info. Thanks, Matt [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
