discussion TABLE SAW.

[MADTONY]

As you know I'm a wood modelling newbie and I just bit the bullet and bought a small table saw.
I decided I was to old to keep cutting MDF board with a Stanley knife .

Yes I am being very careful and safety conscious, but it is making things so much easier for me.
Also, I may move up to models larger then 1:43 scale or even a dolls house.

Bespoke models for grandchildren may soon be available .

Pics, we need pics....
I've always lusted after the Proxxon gear for model making stuff/tools, but its not cheap...

, but its not cheap...

Since when has that stopped you?

We need some pics too cos this sounds interesting

 

[Gern]

Yeah! What you bought?

 

[MADTONY]

OK, but don't judge me .
There are a lot to choose from and some have added extras , but I decided just to get a basic
no frills model.
Here's a screen shot of the add so you can check it out for yourselves.

Looks a useful bit of kit if you’re doing a lot of woodworking.
Not too bad a price either when you consider the cost of some of the things we get for plastic modelling

There are a number of inexpensive miniature table top circular saws on Amazon.
Look carefully at the pictures of them as the same item is sold under different brand names when you look.
Some have an adjustable saw blade height and others not. The adjustable saw blade ones tend to cost a little more as one would expect.
My son and daughter bought me one over a year ago as I was working on a mainly wooden model at the time.
Best bit of kit ever bought for me. Saves me loads of time in cutting things accurately and repeatedly. Should have got one years ago !

Proxxon was mentioned in am earlier post. Good quality but as said, expensive, being made in Austria I think.
