Maybe these have been answered already, still here goes:
1. I've got the stock saw, miter clamp, and a roller stand. How long a 2x4 can I safely crosscut? 5'? nearly 6'?
2. What do the large wrench and small wrench do at each end? From the manual it looks like the slot on both of them fits the arbor shaft, then the other end of the large wrench fits the arbor nut and the small wrench fits the nuts for the blade guard? Seems like I'd want at least one to grip the arbor shaft, as standard end wrenches are too thick. But standard combination wrenches seem ok for the blade guard nuts and maybe the arbor nut too.
3. Is it worth buying one of the miter slot featherboards and fastening it between the SMT and main saw table for ripping? Will a HF cheapsky work OK?
TIA for your insights...
