Anyone get the new Sawstop sliding table attachment?
I would like to hear some replies from those who have one or has used one more then just a couple minutes.
1. How tight is the slider and fence (in other words is there any play when the fence is locked down)?
2. To remove the slider fence their are two screws that need to be removed.
A. How long does it take you to remove the fence?
B. How long does it take to reinstall the slider fence?
3. The fence has 60 degree movement in both directions but does not have any indents (stops) at any angle not even at 90 degree. Is this an issue? When cross cutting I expect to get a perfect 90 degree cut. To me this means when using a Sterret square you see zero light when square is placed on cut wood and held up to light source. Are you getting perfect cuts using the Sawstops sliding table or really close 90 degree cuts?
4. One thousand dollars is a lot of money for a table saw attachment. Was the purchase worth it to you?
5. Any problems, issues or concerns you can share.
My interest is to get perfect or as close to perfect crosscuts as possible. Purchasing a real sliding table saw is not viable option due to space and cost. Best crosscuts I get are from an Incra Sled. Looking for a better mouse trap. Homemade sleds using Oak quarter sawn guides are inconsistene at best. Also looking into cold rolled steel machined to fit my Sawstops miters and UHMW as sled guides.
I'm willing to spend a thousand dollars if the slider delivers perfect 90 degree crosscuts or very near perfect 90 degree cuts consistantly.
All the Best
