Guided saw happyness

Post by reible »

A box arrived this afternoon. Hmmmm what could it be?

That is a good sign, I like most things from them. Let's get it open and see what is inside.

OH Boy it's a container!

It has a label on the outside, what does it say?

Oh good that is something I ordered. The original ship date was Oct. but now is good. This is the second run on these "one", I mean "two" time tools but I missed it the first time.

Not a whole lot to look at inside, maybe I post some pictures when it is together or maybe you could just look them up on the woodpecker site.

Anyway I think this is going to be handy and speed things up even more. Time will tell.

I'm anxiously awaiting your review. Mine came yesterday, and after playing with it for a few minutes, it looks like it will work well, but the calibration procedure seems complicated and fussy. I'm hoping someone with much more experience than I have will devise a simpler calibration routine.

I have not done the required reading but I hope to tonight.... Then put it together tomorrow to see how that all feels. Please keep me posted on what you find and I will do the same.

Did the reading and then put it all together. Looks like it will be a sweet way to go. The instructions seemed overly complex but I got the general idea. It was much clearer when I watched the video again......

So I'm all set to give it a go once I have another project ready to cut up.

The storage box is not going to be much use as I don't want to have to break it down after each use, not sure why they thought that was a good idea??? Maybe I'll convert it to something else or re-cut new foam to try to fit the parts when assembled. Or maybe it will become storage for something else.
