I'm not getting something about the BT3100. Say I want to cut a 45 deg. angle. I set up the SMT so everything is parrallel to the blade. Then I eyeball the red thingy on the miter fence to 45 deg.? It can't be done. On a solid cast table with a machined and unmoveable miter slot I set my Incra miter gauge to the 45 deg stop and off I go - no eyeballing. I guess I could buy a 45 deg precision triangle to setup the SMT fence. That will do for that one angle. If I want 30 deg/60 deg. I buy another triangle. There is no way to cover many angles without more accessories and setup time. If I want a different angle that has a stop on the Incra gauge all I do is select it.
BTW: A new SMT top plate with precision holes and a precision pair of pins on the SMT fence would be nice.
