Somebody at the glass shop is going to be popular. I've got the mirror already. Got from a job I did and was getting thrown out into the skip. So asked if I could have. Always good to give materials a new life.

That is great, Aaron. Mirror is not the cheapest material so it is great to be able to recycle. I would have with the old one, but the backing had starting coming off the glass in places and so it did not look great.
Looking forward to seeing your completed pics of your project.

Here is the oak being ripped to width the ksp85 KSS 400 right? That would have been a good task for the 85. You should post a comparison so others on the forum could really see the difference between the 400 and 85. Thanks for posting the videos of your projects. |

Was using the 24 I also have the 56 tooth blade just haven't got around to replacing the 12 tooth blade. I unfortunately can't use my ksp85 on site cause of stupid rules. The reason I got the 240 over the 110 it is the better saw 2250w compared to 1800 in 110 and the price was too good to miss I will be looking at the kss 80 at some point next year in 110. Then again on site I tend not to need a saw that powerful so might not. Some of the site rules gets more stupid by the day. The latest one is I've to put bean bags in for a soft landing in case I feel suicidal so fair enough. They all get clipped together. I'm jot aloud to do do it cause I've not being trained. Basically I think the sites in the uk would rather no one work cause beaueactitic rules. They are wanting us to go into more off site construction. I'm actually going to a seminar on it this week. That's my mown for the week. I did also use the erika to rip the pay in height which was approximately 125mm. Which it did no complaints just turned down the speed and fed slowly away. Unfortunately the vid didn't turn out as no space to store
