Great value for a small shop!
Rating: 5
Excellent value. While not for production shop work it will be a great addition to any home or light duty use shop. Will cut at 1/2 to 1/4 the speed of a much higher price production saw. Worked well out of the box. Could be improved with a few design changes and needed minor adjustments to work very accurately. Able to make consistent cuts to +-0.002".

Brilliant
Rating: 5
Works brilliantly! Attaching the legs by myself was a bit tricky, but didn't take long at all. First test a 1" diameter 6061 aluminum rod. I used a square to set the built in clamp and it cut through it quite quickly. It did track slightly off vertically, but grinding can fix that. Horizontal cut was spot on. Going to look at adjusting that. Love the auto shut off, have to mount a basket to catch the part while I'm off doing other things.
