Proper Saw for flooring?

Tue, Oct 23, 2007, 4:08am (EDT+4) group (Steve) doth
sayeth:
If it's that small a difference, I just tip the board up (carefully).
Don't let anybody from OSHA see you do it, though. It's like ripping on
a table saw without push sticks.
This trick works fine at 90°. I saw a guy at Habitat last week doing
the same trick at 22.5° -- that didn't work so well. My buddy flips
the board over and finishes the cut from the other side. He gets it
perfect every time, but I haven't practiced enough.

No thanks, tried it once, didn't like it. I'm not just making a
"raised bed" for my mitre saw, when I finish up, I'll not only be able
to set a chunk of wook down and zip thru it at 90 degrees, I'l have
clamps to hole it if I even want any angle cuts. Even if I want to set
a piece on edge, and split it - clamps all the way. I can be verrrry
careful when it comes to keeping me away from the whirly parts, and
keeping pieces from shooting around the shop.
