I have been using my Dewalt for close to 20 years. I have replaced a few parts through this time as well. However, it has surpassed my expectations and am very satisfied with it. The big thing I like about this saw is the ease of setting the blade tension.

That's true. That is one of the first questions I always get, how many holes.
-
The main thing to remember is, let the blade do the work. Don't add a lot of presser

What you are exspeircing is sawing across the grain. Some wood is harder to cut like that so you need to slow down you feed speed and possibly use a more courser blade. Go slowly with either blade. Let me know if this helped you or not.

Thanks for all the kind complements on my latest venture. We sure have a nice bunch of folks in this group.

I know what you mean. If we counted them, we probably wouldn't do it. ha.

I think I do. I'll do some searching. The clock works are very small.

I made the clock about 15 years ago. It was about the most challenging piece I'm made. 2 pieces of walnut as base parts and the rest is 1/n red oak. About 200 hours start to finish. Thanks for asking.

Thanks. You can put your hat back on. ha Seriously. I appreciate your comment.

Thanks. It did turn out nice. Not everything comes out so good. I have been half way done with a board and something goes wrong and in the garbage it goes. Ha.

Here is what I have been working on for so long. Started out with rough cut hard maple that had been stored for a few years. It wasn't the best wood but I was able to resaw it and get enough to make this plaque. It measures 24 inches wide and 32 inches high. Wood was planed down to three sixteenths. Didn't keep track of the hours. It was a challenge but, worth it. Made it for my grandson. He is putting it in his classroom

Thanks for the kind complement. Feels good to be making some saw dust again. -

Little tough to make but worth the time and effort.

This bowel was made out of Hard Maple and Purple heart. As you know Purple Heart is a hard wood but, beautiful when the project is done.
