new saw

earlier i posted about my BOSCH saw nut cutting a true 90 degree cut...i looked it over, i don't/didn't see any more adjustments that i haven't seen before on the saw. still always cuts a 87-89 degree cut. it also isn't big nuff to cut a whole floor board, it leaves about 7/8 of an inch on the board, and no matter how i try to finish the cut, i always hafta gring or sand that part down, soooooo.....i went out and bought a new DEWALT slider saw. it'll cut a true 90 degrees and cut the whole floor board. also it is a 20V battery operated slider saw. guess i'll see how long a battery lasts on it! while i was shopping that day, my back went out in the store, had to keep finding places to land in the store. i could sit awhile then shop awhile, they didn't have any of them hot rod electric shopping carts there. PfffffT! and as i was waiting for the line to check out ahead of me there was a stool there with DEWALT's name on it, i landed on it while waiting. dang that stool was comfy and was the right height for me. my other stools i have are either to short or to tall, this one is adjustable and has a better seat cushion on it...guess it better have for $99. yeah...it came home with me too! just one thing the stimulas check paid for! 

Well if your new Dewalt is anything like my new 12” Dewalt slider it’s no wonder your back went out.

It’s bolted to a Dewalt stand on wheels and easy to move but takes up a lot of room. The Mikita quick releases from its stand and takes up much less room. Both big and bulky.

i almost need a forklift to move the BOSCH saw around. the new DEWALT is alot lighter, i haven't used it yet, been to cold to sit outside to use it. i don't wanna blow sawdust all over inside the cook shack. so far...as soon as it warms up a bit i gotta play with the new saw, and the new air powered brad nailer i gots too. ya'll spose i can nail the old ladys.....oooops....i mean the loving wifes shoes to the floor? did that to my boss once on a const site! lol

yes he was John! we was up ona roof and he was yelling at all us, he came to close to me...oooops....break time....we left and he was still up there trying to gits loose! neighbors heard lots of ugly words that day! he finally got down, but one of his boots was still up there! he never came back up on the roof after that!

if the opertunity arises.....
