Svend said:...you share tips on getting your tools square.
I didn't realize that even a metal one piece square can go out of square. Drilling a small hole at the inner corner or outer corner depending on which way it's out of alignment can make it true again.
tboy said:Ya, bosch makes nice tools but you have to be careful with sliding mitre saws, they flex a bit along the slide....especially if you're cutting hard white maple or similar hardwood. Also be VERY careful of kickback....if your blade is getting a little dull and it grabs the piece, duck!
Anyhow, first thing I'd do is check to make sure it is square. To do this take a piece of anything, the wider the better (mdf works well for this) and cut it halfway through along the width. Then flip it around 180 degrees and cut the rest of the way. Run a straightedge along the cut...that'll tell you what adjustments might be necessary....

Wow I never thought about eating over the sink that would really cut down on the dishes but that would mean moving my TV closer to the sink.
The funny part is it's hard to argue the comments thus far.
Here's a question at what point do you guys spend your Canadian Tire Money? I just keep letting it pile up thinking one day I can buy something really big with it.
