DEWALT DW7187 Heavy Duty Adjustable Miter Saw Laser System Never Stays Accurate – El Cucuy – Mexifornia
This thing needs to be adjusted EVERY TIME you move you saw. They specifically put the allen wrench on the top so you can adjust it all the time. It’s also hard to get this thing right where you want it. Once you do, the screws are so loose they will fall out if you leave it that way. I wish I could use this thing all the time, but it’s basically just a guide to have an idea where the saw will cut and not an accurate mark to go by. Usually it’s left turned off because it makes it hard to see the actual pencil mark.
Don’t waste your money! – Marcelo C. – California, USA
I wish I would have read more of the reviews before I purchased my laser from the local home improvement center. As previously stated the laser projection is too thick, you need to recalibrate it just about every time you change the angle, definitely every time you pick it up or move it, and now that I have it set up in my shop it seems as if just about once or twice a week I recalibrate it. I have gone so far as to just leave it off and eye ball the cut, tried and true method!

It really is a shame that this product isn’t as great as it should be. I thought I just had a defective unit, but no, it really sucks!

I wanted to try the IRWIN laser that mounts directly to the blade shaft, although after speaking with a friend I heard that one is just as good as this one.

Save your money. Use your eyes!
No good… – Funky Riddle –
The laser itself seems to function properly, but it’s a pain to install. Once you do, it takes forever to get the laser in alignment. Once you get THAT far, the laser moves once you make a cut or two. I guess the vibration of the saw causes that.

Considering that I only use the saw for “around the house” projects occasionally, I have found it to be much easier to use the saw without the frustration of this product.

Good luck!
I wanted to get my husband the laser for his new DeWalt saw. The box stores were 3x the price. After calling DeWalt, directly, they confirmed the DW7187 was the correct laser. It is great and works wonderfully.

Starhunter 2300: The Complete Series Aaaaugh! They didn’t finish! – Jiggy –
Being a Sci Fi junkie, I had to own a series called STARhunter 2300. Having seen it on YouTube, I was hoping to find the missing ending. It ain’t there. What a let down. The story and characters moved along nicely throughout the whole series only to abruptly end on the cliffhanger meant to draw viewers to the next season. It’s a shame corporate money hounds can’t figure out that Science fiction sells. It seems, if they don’t like it, you’re not allowed to.
But I digress.
This was supposed to be the continuing story of Dante Montana, a bounty hunter and his niece, who live in space after Earth was decimated by man and rendered virtually uninhabitable.
Dante’s family is tragically separated due to Raiders abducting his son Travis and killing his wife.
But the writers seem to think Travis Montana’s character needed to be fundamentally changed from season to season.
Once the forced gear change is made, we find Percy (Dante Montana’s niece) returned from hyperspace 15 years after disappearing and discovers that by salvage laws she has inherited the TULIP a luxury liner/spaceship her and her uncle were renting from Rudolpho DeLuna, their old boss, who is now broke and looking for a job.
Somehow neither Dante or Luc made it back from hyperspace and the family is still tragically fragmented.
For now, Travis Percy’s cousin is plopped down into the story with his partner, Marcus.
Rudolpho with his new recruit, Callista, a rival hunter joins, reluctantly at first, and tada! We have a crew.
The bounty hunting gets underway with mysteries of the universe woven into the story.
A Sci Fi junkies dream.
I give this only 3 stars because of the gaping plot hole and unfinished state of the series.
this is a great story i have thie first complete series and i think there the best well wrightin i have injoyed them both. another great seris is serinity or firefly series for they bare somewhat simular. if you like scifi these are great collections to buy and not a waste of money . Image Entertainment: In the 23rd century, humanity has spread to the stars and planets in Earth’s solar system. Civilization is a patchwork of a hundred worlds, most with weak governments and weaker laws. It is a golden age for criminals who exploit this lawlessness and use the incredible technology of the future to prey on others. A former luxury space liner, the Tulip, is now a bounty-hunting vessel commanded by Travis Montana (Sunset Beach’s Clive Robertson) who searches the galaxy in search of his father. He’s joined on his quest by comic hunter Rudolpho, plucky Percy, holographic first mate Carvaggio, sexy special services officer Callista and bad boy Marcus. Now the fight for justice is set among the stars? and the showdown is about to begin. Perfect for Fans of New Sci-Fi TV Favorites Farscape, Stargate SG-1 and Babylon 5! Episodes include: Rebirth, Star Crossed, Biocrime, Chasing Janus, Spaceman, Becoming Shiva, The Third Thing, Torment, Painless, Skin Deep, Supermax Redux, Pandora’s Box, Stitch in Time, The Prisoner, Kate, Rivals, Heir and the Spare, Just Politics, Negative Energy, License to Fill, Hyperspace I & II.

Cubist Blues Redux : 10th anniversary double edition including the previously unreleased live album recorded at the Transmusicales Festival 1996, Rennes, France. Cubist blues is considered as one of the best recordings Alan Vega ever did. The combination of 3 great talents, Alan, Alex Chitlon and Ben Vaughn, who deicided to spend 2 nights in a recording studio and just follow their instincts, their inspiration, and combine the experience they acquired during their impressive careers gives a surprising and amazing result. After its critically acclaimed release, there was a huge demand for concerts. Unfortuantely, it was impossible to have those 3 busy guys available the same day, except for the Transmusicales festival in Rennes, Brittany, in decmeber 1996. It was an incredible night. Thank God it was recorded, but never released. Here it is, at last. Alex, Alan and Ben gave an outastanding performance, in front of an eccstatic audience. Enjoy! Last Call. 2006.

StableMate PLUS100 Universal Miter Saw Stand Very sturdy. – Blue Heron –
Very heavy but solid as a rock. First one of these was stolen with the chop saw. Had to replace it and chose the same thing again and not disappointed.
Easy to use – Scott Findley – Carrsville, VA
I’ve had this stand for about two years. It is very easy to use and easy to put up and break down. Worth the money.
midrange stand – Bently Frothingham –
I’ve owned this stand for about a year now, with a 10″ hitachi mitre saw mounted on it. It’s seen a considerable amount of use. Reasonable performance for the price, but definitely has some weaknesses:

- the supports will flex – a 12′ long 5/4×6 hardwood plank will cause the arms to flex by about an inch.
- easy to pull the arms all the way out – the stops are laughable
- tightening the screws that lock the arms in place puts little dents in the metal of the arms, and moves the arms about a lot between the “free” and “fixed” settings. Normally this isn’t an issue, unless you’re using the stop that’s at the end of one of the arms, and need to reposition it slightly to make it just a hair longer or shorter. The dent that the screw puts in the arm causes the arm to try to relocate itself to the original position after you’ve nudged away. Likewise, loosening the screw sufficiently to permit free arm movement makes the arm really sag, and moves the stop around a lot.

on the plus side, it’s pretty cheap, pretty rugged, and as long as you’re not trying to do precision work, functions reasonably well. Next time though, I would probably shell out for something a bit beefier.

Before you buy the Dewalt stand read this… – E. Mason – Bartlett, TN
I recently purchased a Dewalt Compound Miter saw and was in need of a stand, so I started doing a little research. What I found out was this: 1. The Dewalt stand was expensive and not all of the parts were included with the stand. For example, miter saw mounts, which by the way were plastic, were almost . 2. Several of the pieces on the stand were made from plastic instead of steel or aluminum.

I ran across the StableMate Plus100, and found exactly what I was looking for. This stand is EXTREMELY well made from steel, and it is very stable. The miter saw mounts are adjustable and made from steel, as are all the other parts, including the material supports. It folds up and stores easily, and it looks as solid as it performs. Save yourself some money, and go with StableMate!

I recently received the Stable Mate Plus and unfortunately a couple pieces were missing because the box split in shipping. I called the toll-free number inside the box and the parts arrived two days later…Bravo for customer service. I love this sturdy stand that does not rock back when I let go of my DeWalt Compound Miter. I am an avid woodworker with a complete shop. I ordered the wheel set along with the stand. Everyone should do this because moving this stand around is a cinch when the wheels are attached and they dont detract from its stability. This is one of the sturdiest stands I have experienced and would recommend it to anyone. If someone is going to use this from job site to job site, you may want to think twice. This is a solid piece of equipment and the picture does not do justice. It will withstand abuse. StableMate: PLUS100 Universal mounting ideal for all miter saws including compound sliders. Adjustable length from 46in. to 114in. Tubular steel rail table legs fold up and lock. Adjustable work supports with flip-up length stop for accurate repetitive cutting. Universal bench-top tool mounting clamps. Nonslip rubber feet for solid footing. Stands 36in. high. U.S.A. StableMate PLUS100 Universal Miter Saw Stand

Stargate Atlantis: The Complete Fifth Season DVD Box Set – Pixie Dust – Texas
Box DVD Set arrived extremely fast! All discs in great shape – no problems playing any of them! This series is pretty good – although I never thought Tayla’s character fit very well. There will be many who disagree with that – and with my saying that Rodney is hysterical. I really didn’t like him at first, but he grew on me. Now he’s my favorite, even with all his many, many faults!
The fifth season was awesome, just like seasons 1-4. I still can’t believe they canceled Atlantis because of SGU…and to make matters worse…I hate SGU.
SGA had it all…an awesome cast and great character development. The storylines were always great…SciFi at it’s best with a solid cast to base everything on. My favorite episodes in Season 5? Search and Rescue, The Shrine, The Prodigal, and Vegas. Joe Flanigan and David Hewlett brought this show to life, and I miss watching every week. Still hoping for the movie to materialize…but last I heard they hadn’t even started production…huge mistake!
SGA was a great spin-off of a great show. Unfortunately the third spin-off…SGU..just sucks! They should get rid of SGU and get on with the movies for SGA and SG1! TCFHE/MGM: In this action-packed fifth season sparks fly when Woolsey becomes the new leader of the Atlantis team. Meanwhile, McKay faces difficult personal challenges; Teyla must balance her roles as mother and warrior; Ronan’s past returns with a vengeance, and Keller finds peril, then help, from an unlikely source. A provisional relationship with the Wraith takes a shocking turn and new adversaries test the team’s courage and resolve like never before.

As the curtain is drawn on the first of the 20 episodes that comprise this fifth (and apparently last) season of Stargate Atlantis, we’re assured that “the threat level is down” across the universe. The “sentient machines” known as the Replicators have been defeated; The Wraith, the white-haired, translucent-skinned, cat-eyed vampire dudes who have been our heroes’ principal nemeses all along, are in disarray; And while the character known as Michael, who was the subject of the team’s ongoing “”retro-virus”" experiment (designed to make Wraiths human) in Season Two and played a significant recurring role in Season Three, is still around, he too no longer inspires much dread. So, “the threat level is down,” right? Yeah, right. You don’t need to be an astrophysicist to know that rosy analysis is mere wishful thinking. Indeed, Michael’s human-Wraith “hybrids” are a serious menace almost immediately; and by the end of the season, not only have the Wraith pulled themselves together, they have constructed the mother of all “hive ships,” located Planet Earth, and begun attacking it. In between, regular Atlantis fans will witness a few significant developments: among other things, Samantha Carter (Stargate SG-1 veteran Amanda Tapping), who took over command of Atlantis in Season Four, is soon replaced by the by-the-book civilian Richard Woolsey (Robert Picardo); team member Teyla (Rachel Luttrell) has a baby; and Rodney McKay (David Hewlett), the kvetching genius scientist, and medical doc Jennifer Keller (Jewel Staite) kindle a romantic relationship. Daniel Jackson (Michael Shanks), another SG-1 veteran, appears in two mid-season episodes.

Story-wise, Season Five offers considerable variety; “The Daedalus Variations” is heady sci-fi filled with technical mumbo-jumbo about parallel universes, while “Whispers” is a zombie jamboree straight out of Night of the Living Dead, and Vegas, an “alternate reality episode” in which Lt. Col. John Sheppard (Joe Flanigan, in what is still the show’s most appealing role) plays a beleaguered homicide detective, takes place almost entirely in that city. As usual, the best stories are the ones involving the Wraith, including “The Queen,” in which Teyla temporarily transforms into one of those villainous creatures. Also as usual, the visual effects are first-rate, and the bonus material is copious (including commentaries for every episode and all manner of featurettes) and impressive. If this is indeed the end of Stargate Atlantis as a series (a feature-length movie is already in production), it will certainly be missed–but at least they’re quitting while they’re ahead. –Sam Graham Stargate Atlantis: The Complete Fifth Season

DEWALT DW7232 Miter Saw Workstation Work-Piece Support and Length Stop Came with the purchased workstation – S. B. Mael – Madison, WI Area
When I purchased my DeWalt workstation these came with the unit. I have used them and they work very well. If you think you will need them, chances are you don’t know how much you are missing them, and how much time they will save you.
Great product – Norman Gerber Jr. – Kersey, PA USA
I got it for the dewalt miter saw workstation to support long trim. Works great.
More is better – Raymond T. Driscoll – Boonton, NJ
I had the saw table run over by a customer and damaged one of the supports. I always said I was going to get a couple more and now I have. These are great to have at the very least three. I keep two on each side of the saw. one at the end of the extension and one at the end of the bench. Glad it got run over, so I had to get the extras I wanted anyway. Great product, great price. It’s the best part of the saw.
I am a kitchen and bath remodeler and use this every day for about 4/5 years and never had a problem, only the ladies car did.
have the Dewalt 708 Sliding mitre & stand which goes with these stops. Purchasing 2 additional stops allows support tor the work over its entire length and allows me to make repitive cuts of different lengths without moving the stops. It is a simple matter to flip up the stop and convert a support into a stop to make a precise repetitive cut. Note I had the older stand which has a sliding board and it did not work nearly as well as the one which works with these stops for a variety of reasons including sliding board jam due to sawdust, legs do not fold compactly. work support extensions ineffective, etc. The current stand is very well designed and I recommend it. DeWALT: DW7232 Designed for use with the DW723 Miter Saw Workstation, the DeWalt DW7232 Miter Saw Workstation Workpiece Support and Length Stop can be repositioned anywhere along the rail quickly and easily.

Invasion Earth – The World War Has Begun This drama has some bite. – S. A. Faulding –
This was difficult to keep up with as a TV miniseries. It is worth seeing on DVD.
Alien invasion movies are a dime a dozen, but only a few linger in the memory. INVASION EARTH is one such. This is a BBC production and as usual the producers, writers, director and cast combine to present the unlikely as near possible. Originally shot as a six part mini-series, INVASION EARTH is a gripping drama told in occasional flasback. During WWII, a British lieutenant discovers a humanoid figure emerge from what appears a spaceship in bombed out London. He disappears from the plot only to reappear decades later (minus aging due to near light speed) as an observer who has devastating news for modern day England. At first, he is thought to be of an alien species, but he slowly convinces the military that the real threat comes from a weird spiderlike species that has mastery of multi-dimensional transportation and is determined to terraform the earth in a manner suitable for their own life form. Maggie O’Neill is Dr. Tucker, a civilian scientist who is first kidnapped by the aliens called NDs then released for a reason which I shall not reveal here. Vincent Regan is a British pilot who is her love interest and helps prepare a defense. Fred Ward is General Reese, a tough as nails American on loan to NATO who supervises the entire operation.

Each episode relies heavily on the interactions among the large cast, many of whom are quirky enough to retain our interest. FX are minimal. We see only glimpses of the NDs, who resemble impossibly high leaping spiders. We further see a few scenes where kidnapped humans are kept as prisoners while suspended in an amorphous miasma of tree-like branches. The NDs have conquered one civilization after another with the earth as the latest potential victim. All the others have gone quietly and with minimal resistance. General Reese in the final episode sets the proper tone when he notes that human beings have an ungodly habit of making life difficult for would be conquerors. The ending, of course, is the showdown, although a few reviewers have commented on what they saw as a lack of finality almost as if the series’ ending and future life on British television was not decided until late and an indeterminate closure was filmed. Such criticism, I think, misses the point that in time of a clear and present threat to human survival, a plan of defense might very likely go through the stages of disbelief, then acceptance, then grim determination that INVASION EARTH suggests might be the norm. I learned to care about the cast regardless of their fate. Only the better dramas of any sort manage to do that. A&E: The time is the 1990s. The place is the fabled Scottish highlands. The players hail from different worlds. The dimensions are countless. At stake is the planet Earth. From the BBC and the Sci Fi Channel comes INVASION EARTH, an ambitious, thought-provoking sci-fi epic on DVD for the first time. When an ace pilot and a beautiful scientist investigate a UFO crash, they discover two alien races at war with each other, the peace-loving Echos and the dimension-hopping nD’s. It seems Earth is the battlefield and Time (another dimension) is running out. It’s up to a small band of humans save us all. INVASION EARTH is sci-fi of the highest order, filled with inventive plots, startling special effects and gut-wrenching cliffhangers. Starring Vincent Regan (Troy), Fred Ward (The Right Stuff) and Maggie O’Neill (Under Suspicion) in all six episodes of the original hit miniseries. DVD Features: Production Notes; History of Alien Invasion Films; Cast Biographies; Interactive Menus; Scene Selection This ambitious miniseries, a coproduction between the BBC and the American cable entity the Sci-Fi Channel, is an unusually intelligent and demanding example of the genre. The story begins when a cocky pilot shoots down a UFO inside British air space, but the following revelations only hint at the scope of the predicament. A few soldiers and civilians, led by an American general with the NATO forces (Fred Ward), find themselves in the middle of an intergalactic war and discover they are the next target of a mysterious civilization that has already conquered most of the galaxy. Working with a limited budget, the filmmakers concentrate on creating a palpable sense of fear of the unknown while punctuating the story with sparse but startling effects: dimensional portals that open out of nowhere, a hellish otherworldly land where prisoners appear to be digested in a monstrous stomach, our first and only glimpse of the demonic-looking enemy as it lays waste to an Earth laboratory. These eerie moments only intensify the moody dread that permeates the series. Though an unconvincing romantic subplot occasionally slows the pace, the consistently smart writing and dense, delirious plotting makes this unusual epic compelling viewing right through to its jaw-dropping conclusion. –Sean Axmaker Invasion Earth – The World War Has Begun
