That’s a good observation, but, no. Same blade and it is thin kerf. I think I knocked the rule marker when I removed the fence for something. I’ll try to be more careful with that in the future. Sometimes I take the fence off the table to assemble things or paint, etc.
Pushing my measuring piece through very slowly solved the shaving/blade warp issue. That was a weird thing to find out. I kept moving the fence in very tiny increments and the measurements continued to be the same. LOL I knew I wasn’t crazy. I kept remeasuring to make sure I wasn’t just holding the caliper wrong. Haha. And now after sanding it’s 1/128th off again. I guess it will still be useful for a false crosscut fence. I think I can live with 1/128th out for 99.99% of my crosscuts. :-)
