I finished the rebuild of the DeWalt RAS a few weeks ago. I then started on the Unisaw and haven't done any woodworking to speak of. Just spent some time on the lathe. Work is slow and I had the day off so I decided to start on the garden gate.
Of course I had to finish the extension table fence. Then decided I might a well build a new table for the saw. :rolleyes: I ended up spending most all day on those odds and ends.
Finally late this afternoon I actually started working on the gates. Ripping on the table saw and cross cutting on the DeWalt. Man is that thing sweet! I am so impressed. Lots of power, stable and smooth. It has a Freud blade on that that is no telling how old, but it does a good job cutting. No way do I want to go back to the Craftsman! They are going out of the shop in the morning for good! Nothing like this old iron!
