I love the saw, never a problem with adjustments not holding and
adjustments can be relatively vague and it cuts fine.
I will warn you however, this saw comes with a 4.5 hp Baldor motor that
"you" have to mount, and you will have to add a cord, unless something
has changed. It is a 2 person job, mounting the motor, and the motor is
very heavy and large.
Other than mounting the motor every thing is pretty straight forward. I
strongly advise getting the mobility kit, the saw is about 465 lbs.

Making veneer is a simple procedure with the 1.25" Resaw King that
Laguna sells.

One other thing, not really a feature of the saw other than the size
blade it uses, 150". The longer blades are a snap to fold and unfold
compared to shorter ones I have folded. I can fold and unfold bare
handed. There is such low tension with it folded that tossing it on the
ground to let it spring open does not work. I'm totally in control when
unfolding.
