My Ridgid is OK, but I would like to cut more than a 6 inch board. So looked at about everything I can find.
A 10 inch slider would be fine, but they seem to be OPB for the better ones. The old style rear rail Makita looked like a winner.
So, 12's.
Makita many issues with guide alignment and dished cuts. Maybe just setup, but too many.
Delta too many about it being sloppy
Ridgid too many on blade wobble. ( My fence was not perpendicular on my compound)
Bosch too many complaints about too much play
So it looks like about the only decent one out there is the yellow one. DWS780. Older one is on sale at HD, but no shadow or laser.
Is this the general consensus? ( No, Festool is out of the budget question) I have not been a fan of DeWalt tools, maybe this one will bring me around? Either that, or just keep the Ridgid and make a longer sled on the TS. Cheaper, and it will cut a strait line every time. I now regret "upgrading" from my old original Delta to the compound. It was a much more precise saw.
