alota,

 

i know nothing about ryobi besides my wife said they a bigger pieces of junk than the current delta 350, this from the returns when she was at depot working, if you need a good econimcal saw get a dremel 1800 or 1830, the qualtiy if there and they stand behind it 100 percent, if you are at home depot they push into ryobi and that is wrong, they have tried to push me into a osilating drum sander to replace my 13 year old ridgid, that is not happening or my dewalt saws all with the ryobi, check it out, the dremel will do everything any other saw can and is about 219 or so. i fully agree if you could afford a better saw you would ask why it took so long, but not all of us can do that yet, we can't and man have we found some beauities like a 2 year old hawk g4 for 800.
