I'm using my record sabre 350 to cut some 50mm x 20mm  section pieces of [old] oak to length, and wanting them square. Not much to ask, surely?

(The blade isn't new, but it's cutting this stock without any issues. )

The blade guides are no more than about 75mm above the stock. one upper guide [bearing] rotates, the other doesn't,  but it's set to within a mm. They're not supposed to pinch the blade are they?

I'm using a pretty solid  mitre gauge [different make but same features as in the photo], which has much less slack than the amount of error in the cut.

It's knot-free, straight grained stock but when I cut one end, it's a mm out over the 50mm. I flip it to the other end, and it's pretty well square.

How did I flip it? Good question! I think I spun it  [like a compass needle] but I may have flipped it like a book page. If that makes any difference.

Any ideas why? Please? (Driving me nuts!)
