I've noticed that the saw blade torques slightly out of vertical when I'm rising or lowering the blade. After rising or lowering, I back it out ever so slightly (when it feels free and loose) to straighten it out. If I get in there and blow out the big blade screw rise thing and apply more dry wax to it will that alleviate the problem or is it another issue altogether?
On another note, I need to make several cuts at the same length. Is there a way to set a dimension on the saw so that I'm not constantly marking each piece of wood and aligning it with the blade. I've seen people use stopgaps (I think they are called) with their sleds. I have not built a sled yet. So is there a simple stopgap thing that can be built for the bt as-is.
Thanks.
