NJ Phil Posted January 1, 2011 Report Posted January 1, 2011 Someone , somewhere mentioned tilting the saw. I thought I'd give it a try. I raised the rear end of the saw 3 inches. It makes a big difference in seeing what you are doing. Thank you. Thank you. Phil Quote
Marshall Posted January 1, 2011 Report Posted January 1, 2011 Phil I attached a 4" X 4" on the rear of my saw some time ago and for those long extented hours on the saw - it really help my back from getting sore ....... Quote
sullyscroller Posted January 2, 2011 Report Posted January 2, 2011 Phil i actually tilted my saw 8 inches front to rear . I was getting "pins and needles " in my shoulders , it really helped . Ron Quote
Clayton717 Posted January 2, 2011 Report Posted January 2, 2011 I have my saw raised in the back as well. only by a couple inches but it makes a difference. Quote
jjammo1 Posted January 2, 2011 Report Posted January 2, 2011 I also raised mine. It is much better other than getting all the sawdust in my lap, but I wear a long shop apron so it goes to the floor anyway. Quote
Oges Posted January 3, 2011 Report Posted January 3, 2011 Thanks for reminding me, I forgot to do this since I moved house and set the saw back up ... something for me to do tonight Quote
Travis Posted January 4, 2011 Report Posted January 4, 2011 Yup. I got a 2x4 on the back of mine. Just a slight tilt works wonders and eases the strain on your back. Quote
