That's scary. It doesn't look sturdy enough be be either accurate or safe.

Brings to mind the sport of power belt sander racing -- that thing looks
like it's set to take off across the room.

Actually, I don't think it looks that bad, although it would be
reassuring if they had some sort of fence...

Is that a genuine Milwaukee on there or a "Chicago Electric" clone?

Sounds like fun - just remove those end stops on the bars, get a long
extension cord, and 3 2 1 go!
It does look like it'd be a better circ saw launch pad than "radial
arm saw". Why not just make a sled? I usually use a right angle
cutoff guide, but I've been planning to make something like this:

It isn't much worse than the one Ryobi makes (made). It didn't give me good
feelings either, but the aluminum siding guys liked them.

Somehow I don't trust that clamp based on the cost of this jig.

For the same reason we would not sell some clown a large lot of arms,
tracks and rollerheads for "his special machine resale application"
Lets see, who has the deep pockets in that product liability

Boy, o, boy, I just don't know. I'm not sure I'd trust it with a 3-bit
molding head or a dado blade. That vertical support, even with the
added support from the height adjustment, doesn't look all that solidg

And, yeah, damned if that doesn't look like a genuine Milwaukee logo on
that blade guard. That's another thing, if they take the blade guard
and base off that saw it wouldn't be quite as heavy and maybe the
vertical would be sufficient.g

Hey! I've GOT one of those things! DOL's uncle
bought it on a whim, never put it together and
decided the space it occuppied in his garage
- still in its box - could be used for something
else. Left it on the end of my workbench while
I was out and about - with a note "Thought you
might get some use out of this thin."

So now I'm trying to figure out a way to use
it to hold a SMALL router on my JET mini-lathe
for fluting and maybe spiral cutting.

Thanks for the reminder.

These things have been available in one form or another for 30 years that
I know of, I wouldn't be surprised if they weren't first invented shortly
after the handheld circular saw.

The concept isn't that bad, but the execution might be a problem. And
at that price probably is.

Oh goodie, goodie gumdrops.

Check the specs:


Saw capacity: 7-1/4'' and 7-1/2'' circular saws
Table length: 24''
Love this oneMaximum cutting thickness: 12-3/4''
Maximum miter & bevel: 45°
Rip capacity: 15-3/4'' that's a lot of meat.
Height: 22''
Weight: 23 lbs. That'll hurt when it hits you...


There ought to be a law.

The above link for the miter saw is now dead, I guess you guys bought
them all up.

This sanding attachment for a drill press looks like it might actually
work if you put something in the middle.

Isn't that the law that our legislators are always trying to nullify?
