[AT] OT - Harbor Freight sliding miter saw update

[ROBBRUT at aol.com]

I have purchased nine (9) of these saws over the past two years (two for my 
own use, the rest for for a couple of my sons and a few friends).
At least three went directly into commercial service, one for a roofer, the 
second for a historical building restoration company, and the third for a 
remodeling contractor.
They all worked/are working fine except one, which had a bind in the carriage 
right out of the box.
I returned it (on their nickle, since they send a return postage or UPS chit 
if you call them about a problem) and the next one was fine.
By the way, I bought 5 of the saws at one time, since I had a 10% off coupon 
they gave me because I wasn't pleased with the quality of another item which I 
also returned.
On the whole, I am pleased with the items I get from them.
