I have been thinking of mounting my miter saw on a "sled" (2 2x4s). The
manufacturer (Delta) suggests this in the manual, and the "feet" have
notches to accept a 2-by.
To make it easy to move about the house, I was thinking of mounting a couple
of lawnmower type wheels on one end of the rails. Once I get it to where I
want it, I can then lift on on saw horses, or just leave it.
Since it will be on wheels, I was thinking I could lean the "sled" with the
mounted saw up against a wall. But Will it cause the saw to go out of
alignment or anything like that? It is a fairly heavy 12" CMS.
I use it for personal use, and it could be stored for a lengthy period,
between projects.
I store my 10" Milwaukee SCMS, attached to a Delta Sidekick on it's end w/o
a problem.
