From some of the comments, it seems that this Bosch quality may be hit or miss at this point. I love mine, with some fine tuning and a good blade it works great for my needs. Post pandemic quality is probably why so many items have issues lately. Thanks for watching.

Mine won't cut that with the fences where they are. Doesn't really matter. Thanks for watching.

The rigidity of this machine is what put it at the top of my list. I really like it. Thanks for watching.

Had to wait for the dust to settle. Merry Christmas. Thanks for watching.

It's a very nice saw that saves space. Dust collection needs some work and the factory blade is not great as with most saws. I just ordered a better blade and will do an update once it's all tuned. I think you will be happy with it. let me know how yours was adjusted. Thanks for watching.

I wore my old Dewalt 12 inch out plus it was too big so I sold it several years ago thinking the Incra sled would take up the slack. Turned out I was wrong. I saw it go on sale at Amazon and told my wife she was buying me a Christmas gift. She then found a new chair she wanted for knitting in and I got her that. It was a very easy Christmas for us. The grandkids just get money so we didn't have to leave the house to Christmas shop this year. Look the other way so your wife doesn't call me a bad influence on you 😉. Co2 laser should be here Thursday. Merry Christmas. Thanks for watching.

I've got a Dewalt compound miter saw that I bought new in 98. Just learned in the last year how to adjust it. It never cut a decent 45. I'll take it on some time in the next year to see if I can adjust it in or not. If not this Bosch would be worth taking a look at for a replacement as I'm slowly getting back in to woodworking. That's a great looking piece of equipment. Be glad to see your thoughts on it after using it for a time.

I tuned it and put a Tenryu blade on it and love it. Dust collection sucks though. Thanks for watching.

It definitely is a nice saw. I watched that video but it looked like his solution limited stock thickness when using the sliding feature. I definitely will spend some time trying to make something that won't be as fancy as his. Thanks for watching.

I did look at that saw at Lowes. Didn't like the feel of the slides on the one they had on display . Thanks for watching.

I've got both, started with the Hitachi and just bought the Bosch. Both are great saws and each has an advantage and disadvantage over the other. HPT wins on price for sure and the fine tuning screw for angles and the metal gearing is really nice. The gliding motion of the Bosch is superb and the accuracy is great once setup properly.

Thanks. It's a decent saw for the money. There's an update also. Thanks for watching.

It will be good to have a nice cutting miter saw again. I didn't thinkI would need one with the Incra sled but I was wrong about that. Thanks for watching.

It is definitely heavy and once tuned it works great. Thanks for watching.

It seems to be a very quality build. I ordered a 80 tooth -7 deg full kerf ATAFR grind blade for it. Seems to be the best solution for cutting both thick and thin stock. Almost went with 100 teeth but they cut very slow in thicker hardwoods. Iwill do an update once its all tuned. Thanks for watching.

Wow, that's a great buy. Tune it up and it's a great saw. Thanks for watching.

@@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023 Yes sir thank you I was pretty excited

It's a very nice saw. Merry Christmas. Thanks for watching.

They definitely should be able to calibrate them perfectly at the factory with todays technology. It's all about profits. It is a very nice rigid saw for the price point. I think the 120 volt power grid has a lot to do with the international tools that never make it here. With battery options I think we will se more. Thanks for watching.

I just ordered a Tenryu blade to try. It's a full kerf 80 tooth -7 degree hook ATAFR grind from Japan. Same price range. I looked at the Amana blades but couldn't find a full kerf negative hook angle on the affordable ones with 80 teeth. Always wanted to try a Japanese blade anyway. I watched that video but have a different idea of what I plan on trying. Pricing on everything is inflated to ridiculous levels lately. I was really surprised when Amazon marked this down. Thanks for watching.

No problem. Just posted another about this saw. Thanks for watching.

Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.

I don’t have any play but if you force it to one side or the other it will move. Cuts nice and square pushing it straight back. Only issue was the washers for the blade were not machined perfectly flat shown in the follow up video and I stoned them in the high spot and marked the set to solve that. Sounds like Bosch quality is going downhill because another buyer just said his turntable is .03 higher then the side tables and Bosch also said that is normal. Mine is perfectly flat so I know it isn't normal. If mine was like yours, I would have sent it back because that is not acceptable on a saw like this. I love mine except for the sawdust collection. Thanks for watching.

Thank you for your prompt reply. My table is slightly higher as well. I’ll be returning this saw and buying the Makita zero clearance. Hopefully that works better

Good luck with the Makita. So sad to see a company like Bosch letting stuff like you experienced slip through their quality system.

Mine are flush. the extensions droop some when fully extended though. Be sure the plastic blade insert is fully seated. I would contact customer support with pictures if yours is off by that much. Was the shipping box damaged? Thanks for watching

@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023 bought it at lowes a black Friday 22. Box was good. Got it up and running year so it's out of warranty. Bosch told me that is how they are designed??? I do have a video up showing the issue. It is a joined board. Even with a metal straight edge it is off.

I wonder of there is a spacer under the pivot that could have been doubled up at the factory. May pay to pull it apart and see if there is a easy way to level it. Pandemic quality and customer support were not that good. Could also place some .06 UHMW self adhesive tape on the tables.

@@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023 I will have to tear into it tonight. Hope it is that simple

@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023 pulled the saw apart. There is 1 bolt under the insert plate that can be undone. There are 4 shims that are curved and can be seen from the outside of the turntable when the saw is assembled. I removed the shims and reassembled. This led to the problem in reverse. The turntable became low by the same amount that it is high with the shims installed. I did go on Amazon and read the reviews of the saw. There is a video of the same exact issue. Bosch gave the guy the same run around as they did me. They claim, " this is a feature." So at some point, either the thickness of the shim has changed or the casting changed, and bosch doesn't want to fix the problem. So, moving forward, I ordered a new saw today. If it is out, I will switch brands. I was excited for Bosch, I like the design, the fit, and the finish. But, a saw with untrue tables will never be an accurate saw!

There are some bevel indents. Thanks for watching.

If that's one of your requirements I would look at other saws. I have never had a saw with a laser and don't really see a need for one. Biggest issues are sawdust and runout that I show in the other videos about it. Really nice saw once you tune it up. Thanks for watching.

Yes when the new blad arrives I will make one. Thanks for watching.

The pivot lock I fought with was easy to adjust. I just loosened the nut on the back some. The instructions were easy to follow for the angle tilt stops. Mine spins fairly easy. Could be that pressure plate screw under the table is snug on yours. If you can't free it up by adjusting call Bosch and see what they say because it shouldn't be binding. Thanks for watching .

Do you mean the certified machinist square. Thanks for watching.

@@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023 yep that’s what it is. Thank you

Should have gotten it a couple weeks ago. The price just went up $100. Thanks for watching.

Everything is still good. Adjusted the tension to make it easier to unlock. Love this saw. Is that something that becomes a problem over tume? Thanks for watching.

@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023 i meant the bevel range selector knob, not the bevel lock.

No issues with that either. Have you contacted Bosch?

Don't know what you said but thanks for watching.

I just watched that but am not really impressed with how it limits the cut thickness. So many companies skimp on dust collection solutions these days. I have a thick kerf blade comming and will work around the higher volume of dust it creates. Going to try and make it from laser cut parts. Thanks for watching

Thanks for watching.

I saw that but have different ideas. thanks for watching.

I watched that but it looks like it will limit the thickness cut while sliding. let me know if it works for. you. I am going to try something different. Thanks for watching.
