Titan, I have one, as long as you don't use too fine of a blade, get the speed up and go slow it works great, my opinion is, if you're gonna make lots of bows save your money and buy a better saw, I only rip about 8-10 bows out of staves a year and it works fine for me. I haven't replaced any guide blocks on it so I don't know if I can get parts or if other model parts will work, The assembly manual is not very good either. But you can't beat the price, I think I paid $240 on sale. I run a 3/4 tooth and 3/4 inch wide blade.
