Ya it's a great saw. Iv just had mine in for repair. Slowed down so much it wouldn't cut a 2x1. The replaced a few bits and bobs in it. It was out of warranty but they dis it for free.

They even gave me one on loan for free while mine was in for repair :-) Great company to deal with.

Do you use yours with a 5kva transformer?

Well done Peter.
Any thoughts of including a sliding board jack or a deadman on the left side to support long boards held by the face vice?

Enjoy it in good health.
