Hey Lenny, Glad you pulled the saw out! Nothing like a new saw. The world is a piece of lumber waiting to be cut! A good new saw blade will cost between $50 and $80 and all will be good. . Congratulations on a good deal. Keith Keith

I decided to open it before my son-in-law came over. I didn't need him. The only assembly was to screw in the locking nob/handle in front. Took all of 2 minutes. Making some small cuts I found that they are not as smooth as I would like. It came equipped with a 60 tooth combination blade. My old 8.25 had a 100 tooth blade. I will be upgrading the blade. I agree with the reviewer that the lazar is not bright enough for me. It is designed for a contractor. It has two handles placed for easy transport. I did notice that the motor has significant more torque than my old craftsman saw. Most of these motors are overrated. It is a 15 amp and is to develop 3 hp. It went through a 1x6 red oak like nothing. I found a good home for my old saw. A relative who has helped me many times will be adding it to his collection. The fact that he is sighted he will have no problem making sure that it is on zero.
