The ONE to buy
What has impressed me with this saw is when I had used it to cut through 2 1/2'' aluminum round bar. It did so with ease and did perfect straight cuts. Compared to a chop saw, the mitre on this has repeatable accuracy. While the saw looks and feels to be very solidly built I wish the vise jaws extended closer to the blade for cutting smaller pieces. I noticed a lookalike model featured an automatic or manual mode on their version which would be a nice feature but the price is also much higher. If you are looking at the competition, make certain you are comparing apples with apples. This one is priced lower than the others with the same capacity. If you are looking for a capable portable bandsaw, this the one to buy. So far I am quite happy with my purchase.
