That’s a bonus

I have a mitre saw and a track saw but there are limitations with both. I have cut narrow strips on a thin board on the track saw but it can be a bit scary. A job the table saw should cope with easily and safely. I don’t require a large table saw but I do want quality and accuracy and that is...

Interesting thread but not the answer I was looking for, I would like to know why the DeWalt 7492 costs 85% more than the DeWalt 7485 and what extra I would be getting for my money

It will be outside and will probably stay in place for approximately 12 months

Many thanks for your response, could you enlarge on that a little. I don’t have a spindle moulder but I have a router and a miner saw I also have a CNC machine. I have been asked to produce a cross for a family member and my first thoughts were to do a simple lap joint and chamfer the edges...

Any idea how to reproduce this joint. Has it been done in 3 separate pieces? Your help would be much appreciated.
