Now I'm stuck debating whether to trust my square or spend $200 on a dial indicator, so do you guys check runout on a used saw or just work around the error?
Man, I've been trusting a $9 Harbor Freight square for years so we're probably both screwed. At this point I just cut stuff long and sneak up on it like a coward. A dial indicator would be nice but I'd probably lose it in the sawdust within a week.
