I'm looking at buying a used DeWalt RAS. It's definately quite old, but those DeWalts have a reputation for top quality. What should I be looking for in evaluating the saw? Puckdropper -- Make it to fit, don't make it fit. I have a 230V RAS, and I almost never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever use it. Ok, it makes a fair to crappy extra table to store stuff on. If I took the saw and arm off of it then it would make a better table. So I guess I always use it. As a flat surface to store stuff on. I use my contractor table saw almost everyday when I am in the shop, and usually a couple times a week even if I am working mostly in the field. A larger blade larger table cabinet saw would be handy when working a lot with it, but the contractor saw stores out of the way easier when not using it, and allows for quickly moving it out of the way even if its not used for just a little while. But it is, by definition, almost ALWAYS out of tune, so it is pretty much useless as a cabinet-maker's table saw.. Mabee not useless, but definitely not optimal. Of course, I check my cuts with a square. The saw has jogged out of tune a couple of times and I've adjusted it. It's been a while since I've had to do that. I'm not kidding when I say that the 45 degree cuts are picture-frame ready. It amazes me. I need to buy a fine blade for it, though. The cuts with the framing blade are a little rough. Maybe I could sell the old RAS and pay for it that way. All I can say is you bought a "good" contractor saw and you don't throw it around like most contractors do if it has held it's tune that well. The cheapassed sheetmetal based "contractor saws" I generally see can't be trusted for anything finer than framing. (and I mean HOUSE framing - not PICTURE framing!! Heck, the way most houses are framed they don't anything better than a rock hatchet squared off on the back side. I've been a licensed contractor (communication) for over 20 yeas, and in the industry longer. I've seen maybe half a dozen houses TOTAL that were framed or even layed out square. Sadly, you are too true. (and the houses are not) The best houses I've seen over the last 20 years are the "factory built" houses they bring in on a number of flatbeads and erect with a crane. Generally they are DEAD SQUARE. One of the funniest things I ever saw was a whole house that was framed with all the verticals except the corners half a stud off from one end to the other. Obviously two "framers" working together. One centering on the mark, and the other butting up to the mark. I had sent one of my guys over to prewire it for alarm and sound, and we had half a dozen boxes or so to mount for various things like keypads, volume controls, sounders, etc. My guy had bought a bundle of door shims and shimmed every one of our boxes so they were level. When the house was done every other box in the house was crooked. LOL. Switches, outlets, even the thermostats. |
