The board shear Blade cuts along one point as it falls, the blade is curved very slightly. If the blade is all the way down there is a gap of a millimeter or so between the blade and the tabletop which would make the cut just a bit longer on the new piece of board. Putting it in the center will be more accurate and average the angle if there is any deviance from the square.
This is a great series of videos; I'm learning a lot. One question: why do you put the blade down halfway on the board shear to capture a dimension? If it's down all the way, what does that do?
