    Table Saw Gloat

    Hello,
    Here is my favorite christmas gift! I wouldn't actually call it a gift. I managed to sell enough cutting boards this holiday season to pay for this and its accessories.
    This is a huge step up from my Ryobi benchtop saw and I am super excited about it!!

    That is just fantastic, Dennis. Beautiful saw and I agree that it is a huge step up from the Ryobi table saw (the one I started with).

    Congratulations!

    How many cutting boards did you sell? And how long did take to make them?

    Thanks for the positive comments!
    I made display models for my work and my wifes work (both teachers)and recieved about 30 orders. I make three different models which allows me to mass produce them and saves time. So, all in all, I spent about two weeks working nights and on weekends to complete all the orders. It was a lot of work, but well worth to be able to upgrade my saw.

    Welcome to a whole new level of cutting performance. Next it'll be ZCI's, fence jigs and some x-cut sleds. Whoo-hoo.
