bnaboatbuilder said:The other issue I have had so far is setting the carbide blade holders. I think it's a fine line between too far apart and too close which causes considerable damage to a blade. There was enough heat generated from friction with the carbide edges to heat one of my blades and warp it. I've since backed off the carbide width a little more. I never had the blade wedged, just freely placed but quite close.

I tested it on august 31st(barrel model)
Seems to be a good saw but I don't think it's all of what people are raving about.
The saw can only do square cuts unless you buy the tilt base.Witch some people are saying that the tilt base doesn't give you much surface leverage.I can see what they talking about.
But the question I have is about those base insert.
Are they only used with the standard base?
Can you use them with the guide rail base? tilting base?
Can you use the splinter guard with the tilting base?
Well not really what i would call a smart systemTom Bellemare said:mastercabman said:OK so I have been looking at the Carvex to see what it's all about.

The base inserts (dimpled, hard fiber, steel, and StickFix) are for use with the standard base that comes with the saw only.

Shane, can you please clarify for me - the $550.00 cordless saw, the additional $200 over the corded version gets the battery and charger, no additional parts, bases etc, correct?
You mentioned the "basic" version, is there pricing on that yet?
