That may even be the same saw, a BT-3000? A shark fin, a decent homemade zero clearance insert, a coat of formica on its top plus a $40 CMT ATBF blade and its the sweetest saw you'll ever use though. FWIW, Snears & Takeitback has apparently bought the patterns and is selling a much improved version of it for a bit less than $500 right now. The ONLY reason I haven't dropped the card is that its now a Sears/Craftsman. You can't get parts for anything more than 2-3 years old from those ba----rds. I may go and get the aux tables while they have it though, being able to use a std miter gage on it, could be pretty handy. Other than that, I have fixed most of the originals warts over the years and its working well ATM.
