@cumbriasteve so did you purchase a BSA or a stand for the saw?
He's probably in the shed assembling a saw stand to put his bsa engine on

Thats a joke! Some people in this world are unbelievable!I got neither
Decided the stand was something I would use once in a blue moon...if that and the agreed offer for the bike was gazumped but the seller did not have the decency to tell me before we drove 60 miles, we did not part friends
Wow that's a lot of saw and in another league to my budget. I saw the post for the ebay 20% deal so just got the Evolution 255mm rage3.
Enjoy your saw.
Yes and no. I will now have a perfectly decent saw for my needs at a fantastic price (thanks for the tip off), but I now have nothing to research and procrastinate over for the next week or so. ;-)
The first cut, not necessarily the deepest (baby I know )
Not a bad finish, I seem to remember hearing that Bosch now rebadge Freud blades for some saws, not sure if that's true or not.

Now set up in the workshop until I've moved some pipes in the utility room ceiling then it will be going in there for 2nd fitting and then above the utility for the youngest nippers bedroom.

No more tool buying except consumables for a long time now.....
Famous last words......
in a perfect world there should be plenty fanny .......Guide rail standardisation doesn't exist which is a PITA. Bosch rails are made by Mafell so they work together and some tools fit on multiple rail systems but not all. I have bosch/Mafell rails but a dewalt 1/2" router and the DW router base doesn't fit Bosch rails so I bought a bosch router base and modified the base and router to fit so i can now use jigsaw, plunge saw and router with the same rails.
Shouldn't have to fanny around like that in a perfect world!
