Review title: Not Too Good
Product review: I needed a replacment for my Black & Decker DYI cheapy which died while cutting brick. Got the Makita. Not good. It worked well for several hours. The thin base plate kept slipping under my guide, but the alignment guide alowed me to maitain a relatively straight cut. After a couple days, however, the blade no longer tracked with the alighnment mark. I called a Makita Factory Service Center (closest one was 4 hours away)and asked if there was any adjustment for tracking. They said no, but that they could fix it. I kept going for a few more days, then gave up. After 9 days use I returned it and bought a Porter-Cable. I realy liked the balance and power of the Makita. The base plate is too thin and loads up easily. When loaded up it is difficult to maintain a smooth cut. Bottom line: Not Good, but better than a Black & Decker cheapy though.
