this is the f.e.t proxxon table saw. if your considering buy a table saw then I would recommend this one, Ideal for cutting your own planks and square lengths, also cuts 45 degree joints, and the blade can be set at any angle. k.

I've got the smaller Proxxon table saw, wish I'd bought the FET one now. Even so it's a superb precision saw and I use it a lot, they are so precise you can cut paper thin slices.

Nice bit of kit there Karl. I do love my Proxxon tools.

I have the smaller table saw as well & must agree with Andy, wish I had bought the larger one as well.

I did think long and hard as to whether to get the smaller one, but decided that I would be cutting my own planks, and at half the price that a 5x2mm works out at, it has all the whistles and bells to do it easily, besides it even makes a cup of tea as well.BigGrin BigGrin
