I have one just like it waiting in the wings for when I move to where I can use it. How do you like it so far?
Phil

looks in good shape. how is the blade? The blade seems to be in good shape. We picked it up from a guy whose dad was a rockhound. He passed away 2 years ago and the saw was just sitting there since. He was glad to see it go to someone who would put it to use. It still had the last rock that was being cut. It was kind of surreal. Like he was just using it yesterday.

Picked up one this summer. I really like it. Cuts slow, but makes for a clean cut. Saw one on Craigslist with a modification I'm gonna do to mine. The table does'nt have enough drain holes for oil to go back into resovoir. Get a lot just sitting on top. The guy had drilled more holes for oil to drain. Also on bottom of table when ya lift it up, theres a rubber gasket on bottom. Mine kinda leaks out side, dont know if Raytech has a replacement. Later Clyde

Later Clyde Definitely agree with the lack of drainage and the slow cut, but I'm not going to complain too much. Considering I went from a tile saw to this, I think I did a pretty good upgrade!

I think that is a great find and I agree, it is better to get someone that appreciates it and will use it instead of just sitting there. At least that rock can be finished now. Fran
