Makes Me Feel at Home - Family Woodworking

Rich

Tilting table or not which way the blade tilts was a bothersome thought to me for several years.

I learned on a 50's anniversary addition C-man contractors saw left tilt & my 1st TS was a 1997 model C-man saw not the same quality saw I was used to. Well a friend of mine called & he had found a left tilt early Unisaw which I purchased & fixed up.

I always worried about the tilt direction so my saw has the longest fence guide I could get & it is scooted over to the left so that I can rip a little over 24" to the left of the blade as it is tilted & I can still rip I think 43" to the right .

Just for grins & giggles keep a tally over the next year of how many times you tilt your saw to rip or cross cut material. It may surprise you at how few time you actually do tilt the blade.

I know there are exceptions where one may make a project with a lot of bevels but I don't think this is the norm.
