I've had mine for little over a year now and yes, the fence can be very persnickety. I've adjusted to it so it hasn't been a huge issue for me. Other than that, I love it, especially for the price, as you said. I spent a little extra on a good gauge to help keep things aligned. Always a good idea for any table saw, but maybe more so with this one. Keeps me happy with the saw.

Totally agree with this video. Just moved across the country and had the good pleasure of putting this thing back together again. The fence is just terrible for all the reasons you said, and the two point fence makes it hard to have a good out feed table if you use a cross cut sled. And yes, the wings are terrible too. I will be selling this in the future.

I have the same saw. First thing I did was wire it for 220 volt, second thing I did was through the fence out and replaced with different one. It wasn’t for the saw but I only had to drill 1 or 2 hole to make it work. The only other problem I had was the switch burnt out on it. It was $30 to charge it out to a better one.

I was having problems with the torque on cutting. I thought it was the motor at 1st so I upgraded it to 220. But the problem is not the motor. It’s the fence off throwing the wood off and cause pressure on blade. I keep on having to adjust the fence it get to the point of annoying that I have to constantly double check my tape front and back. I have all same issues.

Sorry to hear that! I have learned a little trick to stop the problems with the double point fence. Pull back towards you before pressing the fence handle down, and it will really help with the angle consistency.

Hi friend. Looks like this saw has the same typical flaws of all saws in this price range. But I would have liked to see more about the fence. How is it bad that the fence has 2 securing points? I think it's ideal that the fence be locked from behind and front. Maybe you meant that the locking mechanism doesn't work?
@MaydaysCustomWoodworks
@MaydaysCustomWoodworks 3 жыл бұрын
No sir. if it used the front and back to lock into place then that means it can be skewed slightly by the friction of the back lock. If you see a beisemeyer style fence thats on all the top of the line saws, it is only a single point fence. that two point fence is literally an inferior design... at least the way Rigid has done it.
@leonardorojas1781
@leonardorojas1781 4 жыл бұрын
I'll be checking out this saw personally in the store when we are allowed to travel again after this coronavirus pandemic... I like its size, table and weight. But, if I'll be having to fix this typical flaws... maybe I would be fine just buying one like the Makita MLT100 which has essentially all the flaws but can be fixed, for half the price. What do you think? :)
@MaydaysCustomWoodworks
@MaydaysCustomWoodworks 3 жыл бұрын
Makita makes great tools. The Makita MLT100 should function just fine, but its a compact saw. you might have a difficult time ripping big sheets of plywood or other super heavy stuff. other than that, it should work great!
