Saw feels really solid, and the solid stops for the vice is a very nice touch. Motor has plenty of power and hasn't been tripping the breaker like my last saw

This saw works extremely well for cutting 2 X 3 X .120 wall tubing and 1 1/2" square tubing w/.120 wall. I've also cut other solid steel stock with no problems at all. Also, this saw has an acme thread which is what you want over a standard thread. I also added a few drops of oil onto the threads to prevent galling. I used a small square to make sure the jaw was at a right angle to the blade because the movable spring-loaded pin has too much slop in it to repeat correctly. Other than that I have no complaints and I'd buy it again. This bench is 12 feet long, TIG welded with the legs painted silver and top painted teal color.

So far, so good. Cuts easily and cleanly. Cuts are quite square considering the size of the saw base. It should give good service to me as a hobbyist. I do not handle it roughly but have successfully cut 1 1/4 square annealed 4140. Not sure how long it would last in a production shop.

I had the original 380 and was pretty happy with it. There were a few issues that I had with it that seem to have been addressed based on user feedback. I have to say that’s rare and keeps me coming back to Evolution.

I have been needing a saw that can mitre and cut angles on metal tubing and angle iron, and found youtube videos that claimed this saw was the best thing since sliced bread and now I'm wondering if it can slice bread. It also shipped quickly and arrived in time for my work table project. ( https://youtu.be/6CEFkZm_wBA )

Great saw with a sturdy cast aluminium base. I like the 0 and 45-degree position stops in the vice fence. I use these the most and they are accurate and quick to set.
