bosch 12 inch sliding miter saw problem #gcm12sd #bosch
Просмотров 1,1 тыс.8 месяцев назад
in this video I point out a problem with the 12 inch bosch sliding miter saw. #bosch #mitersaw
I almost bought this saw yesterday until I read the one star reviews on Amazon. I really wish more people would talk about it and maybe Bosch would fix it then I’d buy it. I’ve watched so many comparisons and reviews and almost nobody talks about this.
I said flat edge. I mean use a straight edge. Never use a piece of wood to check square.
@@GregDavis-c3w I posted another video in lowes with a straight edge. Same problem. 3 of 3 saws were out. The last was only out on 1 side. I switched to makita and have no complaints.
Run a flat edge across it, not a piece of wood.
Your registration point is the center table not the out side.its proud to limit blade pinch.
I understand your point. But with long pieces, you will never cut a true 90 if the tables are at different elevations. The second one was delivered to my house, the right table was perfect to the turntable, and the left table was below the turntable. So, in my opinion bosch has problems with their castings. My makita that I decided to go with after returning the bosch is dead flat across the tables. And the Hitachi that I got rod of to upgrade to this saw was dead flat across all the surfaces.
One has to account for the wear of the nylon washer under the rotating table
They were all brand new...
Love what you do
Thanks! And thanks for commenting and watching!
So clean so smooth!!! 😂
Boxes look great my friend!!! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I bought 5 of them and returned 4 of them. All of them are like that. I kept one and sand it down. Now, the gaps are within .05mm and doesn't wobble anymore.
Yeah buddy!!!
Here in the uk that would be going back. I was seriously considering one of them over one of my kapex saws. Just wanted more cut capacity.
Remove the red plate and add a custom wood one. Plane it to the dimension and problem solved.
I ordered a new saw that arrived yesterday. The left table was flat with turntable. The right side was out. Took the saw back. 3 out of 3 saws were out of whack. So off to a new brand
Game changer tools are like little miracles in time savings! 😂
Return it
Awesome, it’s all coming together!
They must have stolen the design from Ryobi.
The saws been dropped at some point. I had the same issue. The saw head is so heavy that if it gets dropped it deforms the table. Bosch used to send these on big special pallets to prevent damage but the big box stores protested too much so they just get send in a regular box now. I bought mine at HD and they refused an exchange. Eventually got a Bosch rep. To force them. Only other fix is to order a new table.
I had a bosch rep tell me the saw is designed this way, that it is a feature. Seems to be a problem on the saws produced in the last couple years. Thanks for watching.
Yes please!!! 😂
Amazing machine! One and done!!! 😂
Cool machine!!!
Weird. I bought one a couple years ago and it doesn't have this problem. I've heard a lot of complaints, but mine has been exceptionally accurate.
I bought this saw based on all the positive reviews. Other than dust collection and the table problems, it's a great saw. When I talked to bosch, their tech told me, "The table problem is a feature, and this is by design." Then he threw gas on the fire and asked me if the piece was securely clamped down. 🤔
This happens a lot in the automotive industry. One example is that Engine oil consumption is deemed normal by dealerships through the instruction of the corporate "engineers" and lawyers
Don’t blame the engineers. They do what they can with the time and budgets they have. They despise the dipshits above them as much as we all do.
and the company makes a decision to defend it no matter what. It would be too expensive to admit wrongdoing.
The way this would be by design is if you level your outriggers on your miter stand to match the center rotating table. Still doesn't make much sense. Sometimes manufacturing mistakes happen
Bosch BS. That’s all. I rather spend $2500 on a festool.
I have a new bosch coming on Monday, if it is messed up I'm onto a different brand
Or go get a dewalt dws779 or 780 for around $400 to $650 and be done with it.
Do you have a decent level that has been ground flat ? I would be curious to see if the gap is equal on both sides.
I have checked it with a straight edge. It is out. I contacted bosch, and they told me they made it this way and that it is a design feature. Which makes the saw basically useless. I ordered a new saw, and it arrives on monday. I will make a comparison video. There is a review on Amazon where that guy goes into great detail of his experience with bosch and he is on his 4th saw with this problem. His video on Amazon shows the same issue with a straight edge. If I had known of the issue, I wouldn't have made the purchase. Now, I am just trying to shed light on it. Thanks for watching.
Return it
@derschlotter5605 I am out of the return period. I bought this saw black Friday of 22, I didn't get this saw set up until this year. Bosch and lowes won't take it back. I was at lowes yesterday and they had the same saw on display with the same exact problem. Now I am trying to shed light on the problem for other buyers. Bosch told me "this is a feature". Some feature. Thanks for watching.
