I just finished loading the new products being released in May on the Tool Home website. I will enhance the content with some more pictures, etc. later but all of the salient data is there now.
There have been several questions today about the changes in the saw. Here they are:
Flat housing for flush-cutting
With a flat housing offset to ½”, you’ll make straight cuts perfectly parallel to any edge, further increasing your range of applications with the TS 55 REQ.
Easy-to-read, dual-depth scale
The large, readable scale indicates depth setting, for cuts on or off the guide rail. Included in the kit is also a self-adhering Imperial scale.
Micro-adjustable depth control
An integrated micro-adjust knob enables precise depth adjustment, so the depth of cut can be fine tuned.
Better dust control
The dust channel has an improved design that further enhances dust extraction efficiency.
Greater bevel range
This saw has positive stops at 0 and 45 degrees plus a detent-override that extends the bevel range from -1 to 47 degrees.
Improved Riving Knife
The riving knife now emerges before the saw blade for easier positioning in existing cuts lines.
Streamlined Splinterguard
The splinter guard also has an improved design.
They are all launching May 1. I am taking pre-orders and as usual, credit card authorizations will expire after 30 days so it doesn't make a lot of sense to run the card until April. If you want to get on the list for May 1, all you have to do is call or email me.

Just for Fun, here are the ones you might not have seen or felt...
