have you sorted the fence out on yours ? if so was it after market or self made ? that sheppach is out of my price range i think. just had expensive car bill so money not what it was. do you know if the bigger charnwood has similar trouble with the fence ? polewood is a great site by the way :-)...

I really wish i could get that model as i did want the extra hp but i am hard pushed to make the budget for the smaller one but i am sure it will be really good anyway. i will have to see your review as well :-) should have it next week hopefully. i will post some pics and let you know how it...

I think i read your thread before you took the plunge :-) and that is one of the reasons it's on my list. now you have said that about the fence that is a bit of a concern but after market fence could be used. and the only other thing is the 8 inch blade. but i could live with that i think ? i...

well a bit of both really :) i like the grizzly and i am swayed towards that if i am honest as it has a 2hp motor and i hear great things about there fence system as well which is important as i started with a clarke 10 inch (enough said) but we all have to start some where :-( but i have taken...
