Which Delta table saw is that? I've got an old master shop Delta (14 years ) Mine has the Delta fense which is not as good as the Biesemeyer. I to build picture frames on occasion. Mostly I build funiture though. Its theraputic..Good luck on the wiring job and remember to turn off the circiut before beginning. I tried a quick fix on a plug and found it would have been wise to have turned off the breaker first. Bizzzzzt....Ouch

LOL Bob... the main for the garage hook-up isn't in place yet, so I'm safe.. if it were hooked up I'd be doing the wiring by phone to an electrician... I've had plenty of those zaps...

The Delta saw is Contractors 2000 series its about 6 yrs old now and is my workhorse in the shop... adding the Beismer and I built the wings from left over hard maple flooring... a Beismer is the way to go for no check locking and no worry fence systems...

For your picture frames did you build a jig to put them together?? I built a jig because of the pain of repeat trying to keep them clamped and the miters alligned before attaching... it makes the 8 1/2X11 and smaller allot easier and faster to complete...

usahog, I've got a jig for everything. You name it, I made one. Got to have them cuz they, as you mentioned, make repeat cuts a piece of cake..

My wood shop is my sanity I swear.

Bob I'll post some pics of the jigs I've made from scratch and one's that I did my own redition of that work for me.... I would go to woodworking shows and photo memory what I seen instead of paying that kinda money for the jigs they were selling... and many have been tweeked to fit myself and shop...

BTW where the hell is Gunflint??? he's another woodbutcherin, cigarsmokin, BOTL???
