I've screwed it to a piece of worktop, with a batten underneath, so
that I can clamp it in my Workmate.
The dust bag is a bit of a joke, but the saw is very rigid and
robust, and produces accurate cuts. [I can take or leave the laser
guide].
Does it have a depth stop Roger? e.g. can it do half lap joints?
Yes, it's got a screw you can turn to limit the depth of cut - so that you
can cut part-way through a piece of wood, or cut slots, etc.
Considering that some very similar machines cost several times as much as
this saw, I was very impressed with the build quality for the price.
Obviously I don't know how well it would perform if I were using it all day
every day - but for my DIY usage, it's more than adequate.
