Sounds like you have a good deal on the 088. Todays sale has a bunch of bigger pieces of equipment. The saw is listed as number 50 in the sale. I am going to run down to Dayton, Ohio and see what it brings. I am in the right area looking to spend 500.00. It will be a muggy 90 degree day so I probably will not stay for the whole show. Thank you for your feed back.
