I do small woodworking projects and repairs around the house. For me, this is perfect. Have had no problems making cuts. It's fast and easy to use.
This is a handymans saw.I like the weight and the laser sight.It can take what I can throw at it.However, I am not using it in an industrial capacity.Nice.
the 1030l replaced the 1040 model.the obvious differences are a drop from 14 amps to 13 amps, if this was it then no problem. unfortunately it's not.the 1030l is a much lesser product that they have obviously reduced the cost of build (even though retailed at the same price).The first thing is they dont include the ripguard on the 1030l - FFS it's a 10c piece of metal, why would they not include this.The second thing is that the 1030l doesn't include the spin lock button - basically this prevents the blade from spinning when you change the blade (among other things).Anyway, like i said it's still priced about right but dissapointing they removed basic things like this.Dean
Can't emphasize the utility of the on board laser. This allows you to rip a 4X8 plywood board with ease. Makes this tool as easy to use as a jigsaw. Nice feature is that the laser is powered by the cord rather than batteries.
I have really enjoyed this saw, and it has worked perfect. Highly recommend it.
