Re: REvO work
Yes awesome Saw. I looked at RBI but the smooth system that Excalibur offered hands down was the best. Not sure where they are made now, or how good the new generation is. They were bounced around too. RBI is not made by Bushton Manufacturing. Bushton Kansas, I don't think they sell like RBI used to. Kind Regards, Timothy J.

Re: REvO work
I bought my 30" Excalibur "locally" from a lumber/tool vendor just east of St. Louis MO. Been a great saw. I used to be a dealer for RBI saws and planers, but this saw beats the RBI all hollow. Now they're made by a company in Canada I think.
