Don't leave me out, I live here. How about an electric chain saw? Seriously, with a Jet mini and a 1642 in the shop we could reduce a pecan log to sawdust in short order.

John,
I have had this saw for several years. I have the slider and replaced the right steel wing with their cast iron wing. I am using the stock fence which is fine for me. The saw has plenty of...
Todd,
I have never broken a McFeeleys steel screw. The threads are sharp and they are strong. Some of them have a lube finish and don't need any additional wax. When I need to lubricate a screw, I...
I was in Atlanta today and decided to drop off my 1617 router as the corrosion problem had become intolerable. They had told me they would replace the housing and ship it to me in a week or so. I...

Brian, take a look at Lee Valley's version. I bought one recently and it works great! Hoses are inline, ie. in a straight line from machine to DC. Fits the 30 gal metal cans and seals well under...
I really liked that Exact-i-cut feature and did mine the same way. Now I mark my Dewalt 746 that way but use a fine point Sharpie marker on the iron. The line is a little wider than the .5m pencil,...
I refinished a maple table for my oldest son when he married and bought a house a year ago. The table was over 50 years old and the top was gull-winged when viewed from either end. I applied six...
Jim,
I may be late with this reply as you have already gotten good responses. I have had my 746 for about a year and a half and am very pleased with it. It is quiet and smooth. The sliding table is...
