September 11, 201312 yr comment_9334 UPS delivered my new saw (DeWALT 788) this morning. NICE!!!My old one I had mounted with the back about 2" higher. Does this really help with sawing?ThanksHarry BrinkBulldog WoodworkingMontana Report
September 11, 201312 yr comment_9338 Not a scroll sawer, Harry, but I would imagine that mounting configuration would provide better visibility. Lew Kauffman-Wood Turners Forum HostTime Traveler and Purveyor of the Universe's Finest Custom Rolling Pins! Report
September 11, 201312 yr comment_9337 Mine's mounted level. I imagine that Lew is correct about visibility, but my seat high enough that my knees almost touch the underside of the table. I'm looking straight down at the work. Gene'The true soldier fights not because he hates what is in front of him, but because he loves what is behind him.' G. K. Chesterton Report
September 12, 201312 yr comment_9336 Mine is mounted about 2 inches higher in the rear also. I think it does help with visibility. My old saw was mounted level and this one seems to be a little more comfortable.

September 12, 201312 yr Author comment_9335 I'm going to be working on it tomorrow. Like I said, the old "toy" was on a 2x4 and with my eye sight, I need all the help I can get. It's no big deal to put it back level and try it that way also.ThanksHarry BrinkBulldog WoodworkingMontana Report
