Re: New Makita SCMS


looks like they picked up the older Delta design...a nearly vertical motor with a cut out housing...

Re: New Makita SCMS


I hate their SCMS that are newer than 5 years old. The old ones with the rubber condom around the slide rails was the last good saw they made. I had 2 fall apart after 6 months or so. One had the whole head assembly fall off, while I was using it, eeck!!

I have a Makita 10" that has lasted for years of heavy use and cuts like butter. Great SCMS's in my opinion.

This one looks very nice can't wait to here from someone about it.
