"Rockwell RK7321 BladeRunner" User Testimonial
If you've seen the commercial on TV it shows a tool that does it all, but its only half true. It can't cut any wood over 1 inch thick because the blade wanders. The T square keep getting hung up in the track and the hold down device is not designed to hold round stock. Its a good machine but not a great one..Even when cutting pine the blade tries to follow the grain..The blade needs support at the top. I had very high hopes for it. Having a very small shop I thought it would be great. I wouldn't say it's junk but it's not as good as the commercials say... - By Islander
Rockwell should make it apparent that this is a table saber saw, NOT a jig/scroll saw. Calling it a "BladeRunner" is as clear as calling it a "PudBlump". Rockwell should state what type of blade shank is compatible. It needs to be the kind that has 2 crescent shaped indentations and 2 tabs above the indentations on the shank. However, there is a stenciled shape of the blade on the unmentioned tool drawer located just underneath the table top in the front.This is the only table saber saw that I've ever located. There used to be tables that would mount hand-held routers or saber saws, but they seem to be no longer sold. I was looking for an inexpensive substitute for a small band saw for making only straight cuts, but all the table scroll saws I found did not have square tables, and so, they can't have fences or even the ability to mount a temporary fence/jig for (trying to) making straight cuts.It comes with a miter gauge attachment that's definitely cheap. There are three 2-holed shim strips supplied for the gauge. I had to "tin snip" one to produce a "washer" shim which is on the angle adjustment knob. Using a whole shim results in an unacceptable gap between the fence and the table top. Even so, the gauge's fence also doesn't lie perfectly flat on the table, probably because the table top being made of sheet metal rather than being a machined-flat slab of cast metal ($$$). This makes the table surface uneven and creates gaps under the miter gauge's fence.My main reason for getting this tool is to cut 0.62 inch hard plastic (epoxy resin+fiber glass) printed circuit boards for circuit prototyping purposes. Thin stock can unintentionally slip underneath the fence which causes a miss-cut. This doesn't happen on materials thicker than about 1/10th inch. I would gladly purchase a better miter gauge, but the table's gauge slot is proprietary and won't hold a standard gauge. Why did Rockwell do this ?!I solved the problem of thin stock slipping under the miter gauge by fabricating a one-inch-on-both-sides right angle piece of sheet metal that sits between the upright of the gauge's "protractor" and the fence bar. It's about 6 inches long. See the "user's images".Overall, the unit is easy to use, is reasonably quiet, has reasonably little vibration and generally works well. The supplied blades are very poor quality. I am using Bosch T118A 24-tpi blades purchased at Lowes which were the only brand available, but work well. Most of the other brand blades sold had the other shank type which do not fit this unit. Strangely, my local Home Depot carries no blades with the right shank type.I have no intention of using the wall mount bracket at this time. I would sooner build a custom shelf/table, especially since the unit's feet are rubber and should grip a wooden surface well. The supplied wall mount seems convenient, but holds the unit with only 2 small plastic hooks that attach to the table top's lip. The bottom of the unit is free to swing out when pulled, though I guess this would never be a problem. While the wall brackets looks strong, the table attachment method to the bracket is very hokey. I would rather Rockwell excluded the wall brackets (or made them optional) and instead had a flatter table top and standard miter gauge slots. I would gladly pay more money for these two features.
