Very nice indeed! A couple questions:
1) What is the distance from the fence to the wall?
2) How wide of an area do you need?
For #2, it looks like when you change the miter angle to it's max, that the handle extends past the left or right edge of the saw. If you measure from that extreme at the left, to the other extreme at the right, what's that distance?
Thanks for your help. I am building something similar for my current miter saw, but I want to upgrade to the Bosch at some point. Unfortunately, I can't find the saw in town anywhere so that I can take measurements.
I have the fence set 13 inches from the wall. This thing is big. The way I havr it set is god for miters but if you tilt it for compound miters it hits the back wall so I slide it out a few inches. I could only find one a good drive away at a tool shop. Went there a couple of times. My advise buy it then build the bench to fit it.
Very nicely done!
I have the same saw and I am currently planning a cabinet for it. I was wondering if you had got around to working on the fence yet? If so could you post some pictures please? I am debating a few options and I would be interested in seeing what you came up with.
Thanks.
