Default FINALLY got the HF Miter Saw

Remember, according to posters in this group, all of your cuts will
vary by +/- 0.25 inch, so you will end up with 1/2" of uncontrolled
variability in your cuts no matter how you set everything up! They
will also not be square!

Sarcasm aside, thanks for the update, and enjoy your saw (yes I'm a
little jealous because my orange unit isn't double bevel unit).


Spent a bit of last evening reading the manual (I skipped the part that
included "no loose clothing", "do not operate in wet weather" etc.) and
learned something interesting:

With a sliding miter saw, and depth-locking capability - which this saw
has - one can make plunge dado cuts!

I guess most here would know this, or be able to figure it out with a little
use, but, to me, the idea was novel and kind of cute.
