I'm running at 10 speed right now to see if that makes a difference.
Well I was cutting as I was writing this and I had a fire, can't cut 1/8 at 10 speed to slow will just burn up the wood.Hopefully i did not damage other then melting the wires to the red dot.
But the question still stands can I raise the table to get a deeper cut?
