<p>Been using the ACS for about a year now.

<p>Been using the ACS for about a year now. Overall pleased with the saw and system: great portability, fits my very limited workspace, provides clean cuts, zero clearance insert in the shroud which allows for splinter free off-cuts (the main reason I didnt get the makita system), ease of cutting to a specific dimension, and repeatability. Main issue so far: I have found the CNC alignment of the dog holes on both of my ACS table tops is a bit off. Using three dog stops across the length of the table top, aligning the back of the track against the dogs, I find one dog consistently about 1/32 off. Likewise, using my TSO triangle, and 4 dog stops to test right angle alignment, I find similar misalignment of some of the holes. I have two project tables and both show similar slop. Not sure what is acceptable CNC accuracy, but expected near perfection. I found I can't just use any two dogs to align stock perfectly for cross cuts, when the track is aligned per instructions using the two front alignment dog holes. So, I just pick the two dog holes that are convenient for the cut I'm going to make, and then align the track to those holes using a precision triangle. Tool free, and easy to do, but it is an extra step. Any time you use the dog stops in different holes, just check/re-align the track using your triangle. </p> I am very interested in one -…tag:kregjig.ning.com,2019-06-19:2900167:Comment:9863472019-06-19T21:55:49.324ZPeter Watkinshttps://kregjig.ning.com/profile/PeterWatkins

<p>I was very excited to hear about the Kreg Adaptive Cutting System a few months back. I was wanting something like to as I don't have a table saw in my tiny shop. I didn't want to spend the huge price tag on the competitor's, and so I had plans to build something, then Kreg came along and saved me the hassle, with great features. </p>

<p>As for my Kreg ACS I've been using it for almost a Month. I cut out 20 + Baltic Birch 23" x 4" and 7 1/4" x 4" for a project, and I broke down several sheets, and I used it to create huge 4 Foot, 3/4" thick Circle for a sign.</p>
<p></p>
<p>It's easy to set up and take down in my shop</p>
<p>The Saw does a decent job creating splinter free cuts, but I have to work with the speed of the cut so there is no burning</p>
<p>It allows for repeatable and accurate cuts, small to large</p>
<p>I love that the blade is not sticking up in front of me like a table saw</p>
<p></p>
<p>It's been a pleasure to use and well worth the Investment for me.</p>

<p>Well, I bought one at Woodcraft in Cleveland this past weekend and although I don't have it completely together yet, I WILL say that the table is very very solid and strong in my opinion. Very well put together.</p>
