I got myself this machine, because there is no machine with the power for this price. I have therefore built a carport and unfortunately I had to realize that the specified cutting depth of 85 mm not hinhaut in wood, it creates just as beams with a thickness of 60mm, optimally would bar with 58 mm have been. But the power of this machine speaks for itself. The size and weight, very well help the long straight cut, by the weight it does not jump back and forth. Unfortunately, the keyless chuck is gone at the first saw blade break with hops and it could be change no longer saw blade. But thanks to Amazon, the money was refunded to me after only 3 days for this machine. Now I wanted to set a Bosch me, however, after long, here at Amazon, I decided to do it again the Kawasaki to buy because wiegesagt for the price there is no other with the performance. I just hope that the keyless chuck holds better the next time. I would recommend the machine each seeking a jigsaw with weight, so they do not jump back and forth. All other settings on the saw are perfectly adequate for the DIY use.
