not a big fan of sears power tools either. its frustrating to need parts to find out they're obsolete or it will cost you more to repair than replace.i started buying delta when i started replacing shop tools years ago. am very happy with quaility and parts availability.they even had some parts for the 1962 contractors saw i bought for $30.00 a buddy was able to make three pins from brass that were originaly nylon and discontinued. saw works great and i love it....dave
