It's impossible to get a perfectly straight cut with a jig saw. You can improve your results by clamping a guide board onto your work piece, but the blade can still tilt as you go along. I would highly recommend a circular saw for anything that can't be hidden with putty. A table saw works just fine, but it isn't required for most things. |

I'm half way through building my cabinet and havn't allowed for any slant (the cp is going between the sides and not on top). I'm now beginning to think this may be a problem. It would be a lot of work to add a slant now, do you think its worth doing? Heres my project: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=90472.msg949443#msg949443 |

mine is flat, and its perfect. |
| severdhed:
mine was perfectly flat for a long time, and it felt just fine to play on, however i think it looks a better with a little slant on it |
| bkenobi:
I think you're putting too much thought into it. Just mock it up and see how it feels. It has nothing to do with what was done in the past. It really has to do with what feels right to you in your playing configuration (standing, sitting, etc...). |
