Purchased approximately 7 years ago at Sears. New price: $499.99. Blade upgraded to a Makita carbide four years ago at a cost of approximately $100.00. Relatively little use. Owners Manual. Works fully, flawlessly, reliably and accurately. Reason for selling? -- Upgraded to a Bosch Axial Glide. Must go to make room for the new one. All offers considered. Thanks for looking.
