G'day Joe and Thanks for the Input smile

I agree with you, it's probably a runout sale, the hard part is that these days price isn't indictive of quality and performance.

I'm leaning towards the latter, mainly because it mentions 3 bearings, I figure they will give better support and wear less as a result.

The guy in the Bunnings Tool Shop said that as far as he was concerned the only difference was the Motor, better or worse he didn't know and he recommended the former as the one I should pick, he has never led me astray before so I'm a bit torn between his pick and what my heart tells me I should pick.

I know the cheaper brands such as Ryobi aren't as accurate and nicely built as the Top End Brands, but I can't justify $800-$1,000 for something I'm not using everyday (Translation = The wife would kill me).

I've read that the Ryobi scales and accuracy leave a lot to be desired, I'm willing to live with that, making sure I measure twice, lightly score, cut and stuff it up, then get it right on the second attempt wink

Well I'm off to Bunnings now, I will have a play with them both, twist and turn to see how much freeplay each has and read the Motor labels if I can, then make my decision. I will post back and let you know what I decided.


Thanks again
