Is there any reason NOT to use euro guides? I see a lot of posts where saws that come with euro guides are most often replaced with Carter guides.
I'm upgrading my G0555 and need guides as the current bearings are stuck and falling out of the guides. Making any kind of adjustment is futile as after the blade runs a few cycles the guides are already out of adjustment.
I like the idea of a euro guide because it gives more support to the blade and the blocks are easily replaced with oil soaked wood.
95% of my sawing is on logs. I've got a Timberwolf 1/2x3AS blade due any day. I'm still trying to find the best jig.
I'd like to hear all opinions on either side.
Thanks,
Burt
