Can this table saw make a 45 rip cut?

Not as equipped. I constructed an auxiliary fence that holds the stock at the 45 degrees. It is actually more of an additional table rather than a fence with a strip on the bottom to be placed in the miter slide groove and then I use two small machinist clamps to hold it in place. This saw is much more stable and with far less blade wobble than any other out there. Good luck. If I can be of further assistance just ask.

No it cant. I ended up uying another model tablesaw from a company called Micro Mart small tools I think they have a 3-400.00 saw that will do thatGood Luck

Sure can. Make sure to use a high-quality ultra-fine finish blade when you rip it to width, and go slowly. You don't want to splinter the edges.

This tool needs a little surface area on which to rest in order to cut well. Yes, you can use scrap lumber to add that surface area,but that rapidly becomes more effort than using a table saw. Since I mostly use my table saw for rip cuts of less than 2", I wouldn't try to replace my table saw with this tool, but for wide rip cuts and panels / sheet goods, it should work fine.

yes, I have. Just go a bit slower. I still prefer a table saw for fine work and use this saw for jobs i can not bring to the saw.

If you can find a blade, and I'm fairly sure you can. The saw has excellent support that would be required for a clean, straight cut. All my other jig saws would fail because of lack of support. This is an excellent saw. Best in it's class. Jim

I've cut 2" sch 40 a handful of times. I believe it would do what you want no problem. As long as you don't try to cut too fast, just let the saw do the work, the blade should hold up. Cutting slow with this saw is still 3x faster than an abrasive.

Never tried - just curious, do you mean the tools that fit into the grooves built into the surface of the table ? The fence is pretty decent for this type of saw - it is not as tight (solid, steady) as a traditional saw like a Delta Contractor 10"

Sure will as well as the zero insert. I wondered myself at first as I had never used a table saw. Wow, I can build stuff now, ha ha.

I would not use it as a rip blade on a regular basis. If you have to rip a short piece or two maybe. this is a crosscut blade and will last a lot longer if used as one. use a combination blade or a glue line rip blade for ripping.

This is a tough saw and should be able to do it. I have not actually tried it myself.

Absolutely. I used the Rip-Cut on 4 x 8 MDF to build six radiators. Once it's calibrated to your saw, it's a little cumbersome at first but with a few passes you get use to the feel. It definitely makes your work fast and easy without the use of a table saw.

I'm not 100% sure what type of 45 degree you are talking about cutting, but I believe you are referring to using it to cut your corners to create a 90 degree corner. If that is the cut you are looking for then this jig will not do that.

I purchaced this attachement to rip some reclaimed maple to make a table for my wife. It worked great. I think it will work for what you want to do as long as you can follow a straight edge. I did rip some pressure treated landscaping timbers and it did work well. Let the saw do the work do push to hard and i think you will be fine. Good luck Dave

It probably would but you have to remember it only has a 2" blade so the area of cut will be very small. Especially at 45 degrees.

Yes, I use this blade on my Craftman tablesaw. But there may be some limitations using the maximum cut widths depending on the length of your mandrel and the power of your saw.

I have a DeWalt table saw, albeit a european model, but as long as the tracks are the size specified on the specifications, then it will be fine I am sure. A good piece of kit, well made and accurate. Enjoy!!

The blade is 9-1/2" wide. It would cut straight cuts on 9" as long as it no wider. But it would not cut a 45 degree cut on 9" I used it on 6" vinyl and it worked excellent.
