Using a left tilt saw, when ripping long miter cuts ( 36" ) do you use the
fence on the left of the blade or the right and why?
I find that when I use the fence on the right I have a hard time keeping the
stock against the fence, even with hold downs and push sticks it seems that
the stock wants to ride up the tilted blade.
I have not tried it with the fence on the left - for some reason it just
doesn't look safe to me and I like my fingers.
Considering getting a good large chamfer bit that will do a 45 miter on 4/4
stock.
Any thoughts on that?

The thought you have regarding "not looking safe" should be heeded.
You might check fence alignment for the ride up thing that's
happening, and use a featherboard? Tom
