    Thank you for this review, i have just purchased this machine and as a newbie woodworker found your comments very helpful and instructive. I will follow your advice for set up.

    You may have just answered my question as to the side movement.
    Rushing home tomorrow from Gran Canaria to fix it.
    Thank you

    Thanks for the review Russell, we have a new CMS launching later this year.

    Thanks for the video Russell. I read those negative reviews too ("it's not accurate so I've taken it back") but the manual is very clearly explaining how to adjust and for the price we pay those machines I feel it's fair to spend a little time setting it up.
    Mine unfortunately will probably have to be replaced as the base is not straight and when I clamp the item it tilts on the other side :) (I'm waiting for Evolution to come back to me) but indeed I appreciate that it can be adjusted for a very accurate job.

      +tony359 Thank you for your comment Tony. I hope you have success with Evolution. They seem like a decent company. You cannot fix a twisted base! For the price I think it is a great saw.

      Yes, I had the same impression too. After all all those refurbished saws on their ebay outlet must come from somewhere! :)

      It's £45.83 at the moment in Screwfix and I've got a £40 voucher, so a 'no brainer'. Your review helped make up mind mind. Thanks again.

    hi russell, i want some straight edges for a table im attempting to make (first woodwork project) and bought this but it has a power plug for a generator, is it okay to change it for a domestic 3 pin plug, for a uk household socket

      Hi Beverley, I am sorry, but I do not understand exactly what you are asking. Are you saying that you have bought a Rage 3-B but it does not have a UK 3 pin plug? If that is the case, then it sounds like you have a 110V saw and will need to change it for a 240V. Check on the box or the machine to see what voltage it runs at. I believe the product code for the 110V version is RAGE3B2101 if that helps.

    • @beverleynewman3442
      @beverleynewman3442 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      yes now i have check the box your correct it is 110v, thanks for this i will try again at screwfix, thought it was a bargain at 4o pounds
