Has anyone made this mistake?

[dltflt]

I forgot to slide my fence back to make a bevel cut.  I had been doing straight or miter cuts all day then on my first bevel cut seemed a bit tough to get through.  Then I realized what I had done.  The blade still cut good afterwards.

Upside is you wont have to slide it anymore.

[oops]

That had to hurt!

ehh no biggie just throw a new fence on there. youll cover the ugly while having better stock support.

 

[dltflt]

Yes it did hurt but life goes on.  I am planning on putting on another fence, not to cover up my mistake though.

Twice!

 

[dltflt]

I hope I don't do it twice but there is always that possibility.

Tom, that made me chuckle!  ;D

Not yet. But things happen with tools. You should see my MFT

 

[Miskini]

I did that once, with my Dewalt.

Just your title had me curious to see if there was a new mistake that I haven't made yet.  What's wrong with a zero clearance fence [wink]

Nothing as long as you don't zero it again the next angled cut.

yep - doesn't hurt much and good job you had a proper blade in there - a 24t rip blade would have turned out a bit different.
