Since I made an on-the-stock purchase, I set the bevel of the vertical saw to suit my needs. There was no point in sending the saw back to you if I couldn't keep it. I was forced to improvise. Metal is 6mm thick for the platform and 4mm for the rest. The procedure was a total success. Since the original saw blade did not seem to be very effective, we swapped it out with a Makita 355x3x25.4. The end result is machinery that is nearly interchangeable with a steel saw blade and a BOSCH saw, allowing for precise metal cutting. The world is not always so straightforward. Welding a new frame and fixing any problems or distortions that crop up afterward took two weeks of eight-hour days. The bed's adjustment bolts make it possible to correct any unevenness. The next step is to use a belt grinder to smooth down the bed's surface as much as possible. It's a lot of effort, but it's well worth it in the end. After making the cut, the angle no longer deviates from a perfect 90 degrees. Metabo goods left a foul taste in the mouth. It is not possible to have faith in Chinese-made precision instruments. Unfortunately, there currently aren't any deals in this market for abrasive discs. Warps everywhere, sluggish engines, etc.
