** CMT 299.111.00 8" Table Saw Balance Blade & Sanding Disc Set 5/8" Bore** The CMT 299.111.00 Table Saw Balance Blade and Sanding Disc Set has garnered a mixed reception among users, primarily focused on its functionality and precision. Many users praise the product for its sturdy Construction, noting the heavy weight material that contributes to a reliable and Consistent performance. This robustness is particularly beneficial for tasks that require precise calibration, such as aligning the table saw arbor to the miter slots, which some users report doing with a remarkable accuracy of within a thou (.001"/0.025mm). While the surface finish of the disc is described as slightly rough to the touch, customers find it sufficient for calibration tasks, achieving satisfactory results. The convenience of being able to slide indicators from front to back smoothly — without interference from blade slots — adds to the overall efficiency of using the disc. However, not all feedback is positive. Some customers experienced size issues, such as receiving the wrong diameter disc for their saw, leading to frustration and disappointment. Additionally, there were reports of undersized arbor holes, causing compatibility issues for some users. Despite these drawbacks, there is a contingent of users who appreciate the versatility of the disc, with some opting to use it as a sanding disc after attaching appropriate grit. In summary, the CMT 299.111.00 is well-received for its heavy-duty Construction and effectiveness in calibration tasks, but potential buyers should be mindful of size compatibility and check that the specific bore matches their equipment. **
