I think if you will go up to $500.00 you could get a Jet contractors saw
with a great fence. I just sold mine after 8 years of trouble free service.
The only reason I sold is I bought a Delta Unisaw real cheap. I also just
got a Robland X31 combination machine on Craigslist real cheap. If I like
the X31 I'll sell the Delta Unisaw. Keep looking on Craigs list for a used
Delta or Jet with a good fence.

Good luck,

cm

Ridgid's TS 2410 (portable contractor type) and the 3650 (now, the 3660)
also received very good reviews. I have owned the later for 3 years and it
cuts through 1.5" cherry with no trouble, using a better blade than the
stock one. The Cummin's traveling tool show is an approved retailer of the
reconditioned machines and I've seen the 3650 in the $450 range thru them.
They also go on sale at Home Depot for $499 several times a year. I haven't
paid attention to the 2410 but I was surprised at how highly rated it was.
Being the 'baby brother' of the two it should be selling in the mid $300
range. As mentioned, the Jet and the Grizz lines are very good saws. Best
of luck to you.
