Looks good. Should make for a fun weekend. What caliber is it designed for?

It’s all about having fun.

Starting to warm up here. Highs will be around 80° today. Sure not ready for the summer. Looks like it will be a warm one.

Must be from the forest that the box stores get lumber from.

Starting out at a cool 36° here this morning. The old timers around call this blackberry winter.
Finely got power back on yesterday after the storms Sunday and Monday. Been a long week without it and not having internet.

Well finally got the concrete guys at the addition. Between having the pool guys keeping the job site messed up and timing issues it’s been tough getting them here.

A strong line of storms moved though last night blowing many trees down. Lots of people around have no electricity. Looking like it could be another few days before it’s restored. The only good thing is high temps are staying around 70* so we don’t need AC right now.

WOW , hopefully you guys have no damages Ron…

Powerful beast. I put it on my list for this year.

I have one. It is a beast. In the aggressive mode it will remove a bunch of material.

I did think it was something you had done Miamicuse. Not sure if you had posted in the wrong tread or not.

Congrats on the box.. Some nice stuff you got there.

Wish I could. Still waiting to get the saw myself. I remember @DirtyWhiteBoy recommending Tenryu blades. He said that is who makes the blade that comes from Makita.

This would be my suggestion as well. Looks modern.

For circular saw blades I use what ever I find on sale. But then again I don’t use one for finish cuts. Just ruff framing.
For plywood you might use a higher tooth count blade(40). It will give a better finish cut.

Block guys were busy today. Ready to back fill now.

It’s nice to see the problem with treads breaking has been fixed. This one is well over the normal post limits.
