Using a left tilt saw, when ripping long miter cuts ( 36" ) do you use the fence on the left of the blade or the right and why?
I find that when I use the fence on the right I have a hard time keeping the stock against the fence, even with hold downs and push sticks it seems that the stock wants to ride up the tilted blade.
I have not tried it with the fence on the left - for some reason it just doesn't look safe to me and I like my fingers.
Considering getting a good large chamfer bit that will do a 45 miter on 4/4 stock.
Any thoughts on that?
