Would this work on a vertical panel saw? Does it project forward at all? My saw has about 4 inches between the blade and the outside of the guard.

Just noticed this is priced at $49.99. This has to be a typo given the fact that I picked mine up from Rockler for $9.99.

I would assume it would work but not well... The laser operates by spinning, and it projects a beam across the work. It would pit a beam across the first few inches, but I don't think you would be able to see the laser line beyond that

I've got mine attached to a 12" compound slide miter saw. As such, my travel is limited, as compared to a panel saw, so I'm not sure how far forward the laser would project. I went through four of these units (purchase/return) until I got one that was "close". Accuracy in large part is dependent on three things: the type/shape of the blade you're using (the thinner the kerf the better), how flush the arbor is with the blade and how accurate and properly aligned the laser was installed during manufacturing. I figured that for $9.99 and free shipping I couldn't go wrong. I ended up removing it given the fact that it simply did not perform to my expectations.

I believe it would work for you, don't come after me if it doesn't. I have mine on my 10" miter saw and it does project to the full width of my table.

Mine is mounted on a DeWalt gravity stand and the hold downs have some adjustability, and I would think that your stand would have the same. What you could do is go to the DeWalt website and download the owners manual to see what the saw dimensions are and compare them to what your stand will accept. I would be surprised if the two are not compatible, but don't take my word for it.

The circular saw has a small slot for this fence. It should work perfectly Art

No it most likely will not work. The problem is the motor that holds the blade is stationary. It may work if you put something under it to raise it off the table but if it's to high your going to hit the motor when it slides across.

I don't think it will cut your 5 1/4" base vertical. I used it to cut 4" base with no problem. The blade rises to just over 6" clearance, but it appears that coming down the top of the base would hit the arbor before the blade cut through to the bottom. But this is just eyeballing it, not actual application.

I use one with good success on a variable speed 1/2 power drill. No idea if it will work well on your saw.

I don't know for certain, however I will say that I think that you could mount this to any saw, you just may have to drill new mounting holes in the rear rail to match holes on your saw. Front mount brackets could be repositioned to match your saw if need be by retapping the front rail.

By rotating the blade guard, you could set an approximate depth of cut. You would have to hold the saw at a constant angle to achieve a constant depth of cut. My motor burned up after third use. Don't buy!

Nope. The idea is to make the saw blade cut are your required angle relative to the work surface. Even if that surface is not level. So you first set the Angle Guage on the sufface and press Zero. Then place the Guage on the blade to adjust for the angle (true angle relative to the surface). I've found that the adjustment markings on my table saw and chop saw are not accurate enough to eliminate minor gaps in longer pieces like picture frame corners or door fronts. Very nice little device.

No expertise here... I'm a woodworker. But I find the saw tight, sufficiently powered for the small blade and easy to use. My guess is that you may want to build a jig for exact positioning. Hope this is of some helpDLH

I used it on a 31" long piece. The work piece stuck out of the top of the jig. I used a piece of plywood for additional support on the infeed side of the saw. With a little dry run practice and care, it worked fine. I wouldn't want to go much longer.

I use mine on a 4" Porter Cable grinder, which has plenty of power, minimal vibration, and I keep the guard installed. Works very well, and removes material fast!

I have a 1982 Craftsmans saw with a cast iron Bench Dog router extension on the left side and another extension on the right. My front rail is mounted to the far right of the saw and far left of th router extension. No problems on the front and one hole one the rear. It works fine much much better than the original craftsman fence. I have 30 inches right of the blade and 24 left.

Works on any saw with a 3/4" miter slot. And it is "reversible" to work on either side of the blade.

I cannot say with certainty, however I will say the fence is very versatile and quite easy to modify which is what I did rather than modify my saw. I would suspect you could make it work for your needs. Sorry for the delayed response.

Hi; I just checked it out, the guage goes right to the blade edge, if you can support the piece it should work.

If the blade works on it yes. However it's only going to cut so far into it. I'd be looking at a different type of saw if I was trying to do that.
