    I have a Reuge movement and plan I purchased through Rockler. They don't sell it anymore. I think you can still get the movement through Reuge.

    Like some of the others, I have had mine for 3-4 years and purchased it without the fence. Does the website list the fence under accessories or as part of the saw?

    I'm thinking either saw will provide a lifetime of service. Trunnion design might play a factor in a commercial shop but for the average woodworker, you aren't going to notice the difference.

    I've had mine for a number of years and haven't had any problems. I don't use it much, but when I do it does what I want it to do. Pretty basic stuff.
