I uploaded a post yesterday in hopes of helping people make their crosscut sleds more accurate. Today, I was unable to find it. In looking at my Email, a couple of people here decided it was spam, it wasn’t. Apparently, it was deleted also. If you have ever looked at this method on YouTube, you will find the main complaint is the math involved. I wrote a rather slick program that requires only the measurements of your cut. It figures the error and even tells you which way to adjust your fence.
What a wast of time that was. Not everything is a scam guys. Perhaps look at it first before doing that to someone else.

If something is tagged by a user as spam it just marks it for review. The moderator will then take a close look and make a decision. Users cannot delete another user's posts. Apparently the powers up above agreed the post was outside the bounds of the forum.

Xylie, that was my doing. It was your first post. It was a file my computer didn't recognize. It seemed like a no-brainer to delete. In fact, I just deleted it instead of marking it as spam in case I was wrong.

Maybe try posting it as a link to a google sheet.

I could not get the file to open. But sounds interesting.

I would never trust an unfamiliar file type to be downloaded from an unfamiliar source. Clicking on such files is just a recipe for disaster.

And your post was very vague itself.
