    Pipe/tube notching

    Im notching a few thick pipes, 5mm wall thickness. Its far too thick for what im using but I had some left over. The hole saw ive got is a relatively good brand but it does have a bit of movement which doesn't sit well with me. Is this normal or should it be solid?

    Anyone have a Dewalt Dw745 table saw

    Im tempted by an amazon offer with free shipping but I cant tell if its a 120v or 220v unit.. Does anyone know if they run on either or do they have different internals for different voltages? There's no difference in appearance or part number of the 220v models which is what i need... thanks guys
