Whatever happened to that tool? It was pushed hard when It came out and now nothing. Seemed like a good idea but I think track saws killed it.redwood said:I like the feather board setups. It kind of reminds me of this. Probably a little more money though.
I have that and use it for hardwood installsI like the feather board setups. It kind of reminds me of this. Probably a little more money though.
Playing devils advocate here, maybe it's retarded to carry 4 saws instead of one?Sorry but that's retarded. We have these tools called radial arm saws, and miter saws. I wonder if they know that. Oh and table saws, and track saws.
As far as I know it's still available. I got one at Lowes a number of years ago for $ 100. It's actually a decent flooring saw. Rips and crosscuts, right in the room with you.Whatever happened to that tool? It was pushed hard when It came out and now nothing. Seemed like a good idea but I think track saws killed it.
I saw it at HD or Lowes a couple of weeks ago.redwood said:As far as I know it's still available. I got one at Lowes a number of years ago for $ 100. It's actually a decent flooring saw. Rips and crosscuts, right in the room with you.
Well I had the Delta Sawbuck as well. It was the precurser to the sliding miter saws. The difference with that Skil is that you lock the saw in place, rotate the fence, and you can rip with it. The Skil really is only of use for flooring, maybe siding. It has a very limited depth of cut.The skil reminds me of the delta sawbuck, but obviously smaller and more portable, but the concept is the same.
