---- those TTi laser POS. There never accurate and if you change kerf thickness you have to re adjust everything. As long as you use it to see where not to put your hand, your fine.

My Bosch is pretty good. So long as you go really slow, it cuts straight. Push hard, and the angle changes...

Quit being stupid.
For $300 you can buy a red Harbor Freight, Either Grizzly, or an Enco 4x6 or 5x6 bandsaw.

Bandsaws kill chopsaws like crazy.
