    Thanks guys, for all your comments, however even though I have only tried the gauge this weekend, I bought it in January...so I don't think a refund would be forthcoming! I will make a custom fence allowing for the descrepancy and hope for good results! Gerry

However, upon setting and adjusting according to the instructions I find that the fence face is not at 90 deg. to the sawtable.

    Rail, Stretcher or Stile?

    Talking to woody friends about woodwork terms, the above names are mentioned regularly. None of us has served an apprenticeship in cabinet making, so can anyone explain which name should be used to indicate the part...'cross piece' and 'batten' is also a term used!! Thanks Gerry

    Chopsaw stopped working!!

    My Sip 305mm chopsaw had intermittently stopped on a few occasions, but now finally "given up"...not had much use!! Fuse checked ok...its a 1600w induction 2900rpm unit. Could it be something in the starter switch? Any advice appreciated. Gerry
