I'm putting in a shop in my basement, I have a small room in the corner.
10'-10" x 16'-3"
My Dewalt 7490RS is coming today, very excited about it, however some concerns.
I guess technically I would have enough of room to rip a full sheet, if I would stand off to one side but barely.
I guess I could cut it cross grain first and then rip the lengths I need.
I'll be making small craft items, toys, games, bird houses, frames, and occasional bench and maybe a small side table and crates and boxes.
No large pieces of furniture, etc.
I was going to get a Rigid sliding miter saw, but when I saw what people do with a table saw, wow! That did it for me.
Now that I think about it, I do have a nice size wall, maybe I could rig up my own rip guide with my circular saw to break things down... never thought that would be possible...
I want to be able to handle full sheets of wood so I can get a better price point when I buy wood.
Any advice/thoughts/ideas?
Thanks
