Doesn’t matter how you prefer the foot switch as if you didnt have one you would use the hand switch, the foot switch is a matter of convenience, I like it because both my hands are free

How do we get on in other counties where we deal through agents they will not care about spare parts and the international postage is very expensive

I have had no trouble with saw clams on the Ex it has been the main bearings that have been the problem, I use a tool to tighten the clamp

Hi Judy
I still use the Excalibur as it is the only half decent saw you can buy down under
, I'm on my second one as the first gave me no end of trouble, this one has been going 3 years and has been trouble free so far

I would like to see more of the patterns before I purchase as it would be an expense mag, for me living down under

I put my name in too but I would like to know the shipping cost.  I am in Canada and sometimes the P&H is a killer.

Too bad not available electronically.
