have you ever wanted to just shave off a little. This method helps do that in a somewhat more controlled manner than relying on eyesight.
with the chop saw in the lowered position, but the saw NOT RUNING, slide the end to be cut up against the blade blank (that part of the blade that has no teeth). hold the piece in place and allow the saw to raise to it's upper position. make the cut with the piece still in that position.
This principle works because the teeth of the blade extend farther to the side than the blade blank. so by registering the stock against the blank, the cut will remove the difference between the teeth and the blank.
i use it often. try it you'll like it.
