Rockytime Posted July 12, 2019 Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 They look great. Nice cutting but how do they hold a candle? OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks neat. lawson56, new2woodwrk, JimErn and 5 others 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to try the Hawk but I still need to get acquainted with it a bit better so I went back to the EX. That saw sings. So smooth.

One tiny slip and you have to toss it in the bin. These two are going to be a lot better than my first one. I told my wife that but she said she wouldn't trade it for any of these. Oh well........I've learned a lot since then and learning a lot more on these. kmmcrafts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
