Don't even remember if it's a 9 or 10 inch...
Seriously, a recall on a 40-50 yo saw?!
I do recall that I got it cheap, because the guy had it at the flea market, but had driven it there without locking down the arm. The arm swung, breaking these cast iron stop-things inside the column.
All I recall, except even with a RAS, it's a PITA to cut every steenking damned cut of every damned steenking cedar clapboard on those odd angles - AND every board had to be perfect, because the building was finished in semi-transparent stain.
But oh man, was it boo-tiful!!!
If it's one with no blade guard, there's a recall. I think you get $100 for it:

I'll take the blades:whistling
The one I have in under recall, but I'm not giving it up unless it doesn't cut well, or it turns out I really need to have a TS on site. I'm thinking I can get by with the RAS and just my circ saw with guide. One trip to my truck instead of two.
