Q for Left-tilters: Is LT really that much more beneficial than a RT
blade, or is it just a tad more safe?

Safer on one just one cut IME (narrow angled rip), but then you can
effectively do the same on many RT/fence combo's by moving the fence to
the left side of the blade.

Other than that it is more of a personal preference ... strictly my
opinion having used both.

Great, thanks. LTs generally cost a couple hundred bucks more.


Howsoever, it is easier to clean my LT out because the cover is on the
left outside and not under the extension table.

What? Pop the ol' blow gun under the hood with the DC on and you're
done in 30 seconds. Drill a 3/4" hole in the panel, wherever
convenient, and tape it over in between blowjobs, eh? No worries!
