Why am I getting a "wandering" cut cross grain in dressed 4/4 hard maple?
The saw is a sharp 10 inch 60T ATB carbide (I don't remember the brand and it has been lost to cleanings and sharpenings). The total run-out wobble - arbor, collars and blade - is just under +/- .0025". Is that too much? The blade is parallel to the slot to within about .001" fore and aft on the exposed blade (I suspect that the slot isn't really cut to quite this accuracy).
The cuts are clean and smooth with no fringe but are ever so slightly "wavy" instead of a nice flat joint surface. This saw and blade has made nice straight cuts since the blade was last sharpened and nothing has changed to the setup except that the saw was put on a roller base - but I broke my back re-leveling it.
Thanks in advance for any ideas.
