The Jobsite Table Saw Field Manual Is Coming.

Rips that come out wider at one end. A board that pinches the blade halfway through. A mitre gauge you can’t trust, and a bevel that won’t hold 45°. Most of the time it isn’t the saw. It’s the setup, and the owner’s manual barely covers it.

The Field Manual is a printable PDF guide that works with any jobsite or benchtop saw, not just one model. It’s built from my own experience, the owner’s manuals, and spec sheets of about two dozen current saws.

This is everything I wish I’d known before the first cut.

Your jobsite saw can be accurate. Here’s how to set it up.

What’s Inside:

• A two-hour baseline. Nine steps, in order, that take your saw from out of the box to dialled in. Every check has a clear target and a point where it’s good enough. You’re not a machinist, and you don’t need to be.

• Problems and fixes. Start from what you’re seeing, like burn marks, drift, tear-out or a tripping breaker. Find out why it happens, what to try first, and when it’s time to stop adjusting.

• Works with your saw. Learn how your saw’s fence, riving knife, bevel stops and blade alignment are built, and how that type adjusts.

• Printable reference sheets. A tolerance cheat sheet for the saw, a spec sheet for your saw’s quirks, and a log so next year’s tune-up takes minutes.

• Plain-English diagrams of every check, drawn to look like the tools you’re holding.

• And more!
