I know there was a post a few months back on the above saw but I couldn't find it. Seems to me at the time there was some good things said about the saw. Since my Milwaukie Porta Band got bar bee qued I'm going to need a replacement. If any of you fellow that got the HF model I'd like to hear about what you think of it now that you've used it for a few months.
 
NC Cooter has one and I think CREX has used one at Trackrock.
Good to hear your shoping friend. How are your spirits?
 
Ray, I have one and use the heck out of it. Like said many times, Junk the blade that comes with it and get some good ones. Its a little workhorse and hasnt failed me yet. For the money, I would recommend it. Good to see your up and at it.

Gday Ray, as per earlier post, get some good blades. I beleive I use Lennox-wavy 16tpi. I have 2 outlets here that will put my blades together from coil stock per my length needed. The machine is worth every penny and more, much succes to you.

Brian, My spirits are pretty good. I'm sure missing not having the shop and tools thats for sure.

I'm just thinking ahead on the tool situation for when the time comes. Thanks for the input!
