Thanks so much for this video! It was very informative, and easy to understand. I am new to woodworking, especially using saws. My husband has always impressed me with his skills, and the furniture he’s made with wood so it was just a matter of time before I’d want to give it a try. Lol
I have one and I find it nearly impossible to see where the blade is contacting my stock when I have marked it the stock to a desired length. Clean squared and/or angled cuts are nice, but how about cutting something to a desired length?
Can we use the tool as it comes or is it mandatory to take everything apart to make any adjustments? Mine only came with one blade so I dont even have the option right now to change it out.
Sorry, but this seems kinda pointless. Maybe I'm missing something, but it seems to me there are easier ways to get cleaner, burr-free cuts on woods, and a Dremel seems like a more versatile & convenient option for harder materials, particularly with the cumbersome blade changing method demonstrated for this saw. There are various workbench-style adapters available for the Dremel (or other unbranded powered rotary tools) for a fraction of the cost of this saw that allow for angled cuts & a variety of other functions, not to mention the multitude of different attachments available for the Dremel that provide for functions other than just sawing.
@@Error-hc7mp Yes, there's an official Dremel product that allows for a saw attachment, but I'm not 100% sure there's an official product that can convert it into a drop saw. However, there is definitely a range of unofficial products that allow the Dremel to perform this function. Just Google "Dremel chop saw adaptor" & you'll see a number of options, even RU-vid videos with simple tutorials on how to get it done. I hate to say this here, right where the MicroMark guy is just trying to get along & advertise his product, but scale modelling can be an expensive enough hobby without buying a load of unnecessary tools.
@@bumbledouche3323 a large portion of the people using this machine are cutting rifle brass down for resizing. You just can't beat this saw with a VonZep jig. you can cut down hundreds in an hour. A dremel tool would be hard pressed to 1: keep up with the rate. 2: keep the cuts square 3: put out a quality finished product. All tools have their niche and use.... Dremel is a good tool...but this is not its forte.
