I have owned a radial arm saw for about 35 years. They are simple to use after
you get them set up for the cut you desire, but take a bit more setting up than
some other styles of saws. Even though I have a table saw, compound miter saw,
etc., I still find myself using my radial arm saw a good amount of the time. I
particularly like it for making a fast 90 degree cross-cut.

Subject: [BlindHandyMan] roter zip
Hello there. what is the differents between this and a regular roter? when
we built a shed in grade 12 we took the roter to cut out the door and
window. I did it using the hand over hand method so not really sure how
someone would go about cutting a hole out of wood. It was a sighted teacher
that was really good at accomidating, or finding a way that I could use the
plainer and saws by myself. I had a braille measuring tape and used masking
tape (the one on the role that you rip off) to mark my measurements and then
did my work. The only thing that I didn't use, and would love to k know how,
was the radial arm saw.
