That's a bargain!!!
I bought a similar one from Srewfix at the full price two years ago and whilst not the most accurate machine it did a huge amount of work
building my extension. partitioning, carcassing, skirtings, architraves, dado's, flooring and still going strong.
Two new blades since but I've not fitted the spare bushes for the motor yet.
Was a good deal at the full price.
I used to be apathetic but now I just don't care.

My 14" abrasive saw doesn't go that fast. You could get a spacer to take the disk centre bore down but 9" disks would be too big for
it.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

the clark chop saw in machine mart is 2.2kw and only around £50 i think - the extra power will be noticed!
