There's a Delta Sawbuck for sale on CL locally. I've never seen one or used one before, but it looks like an interesting tool and it's tempting me. Has anyone ever used one before? Any problems with them regarding accuracy, usability, or dependability?

A friend of mine swears by them. He had one for years until it was stolen. By that time they weren't available anymore. I suspect based on the construction where rails the saw slides slide on are captive on both ends that it is pretty accurate once aligned and probably pretty abuse resistant.

What?

(Maybe a spammer, copying and pasting from other threads?)

EDIT: Looks like the spammers post has been removed.

I used one 20-some years ago. Easy to transport as it has a set of wheels.& set up. Was good for doing siding work and general purpose woodworking.
