Erbauer sliding mitre saw
A new line and a 80mm x 300mm cut. Sounds good at £129
http://www.screwfix.com/app/sfd/cat/...21263&ts=22170 Anyone had an Erbauer saw? |

Personally, I'd go for one with a full 12" cut. More use for shelving, etc. -- *When companies ship Styrofoam, what do they pack it in? * Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |

What happend to 100% ex stock? Anyone had an Erbauer saw? Personally, I'd go for one with a full 12" cut. More use for shelving, etc. You could place the shelving to cut on an some off cut etc to make up the 5mm or so, unless te shelf is very deep (say 70mm)! |

Depends whether it means the saw is unavailable or the quantity in stock is unavailable. I'd guess the latter. |

Well we can't really be sure unless your familiar with the screwfix stock control / orders system ? I'm not sure that I'd assume the latter, as I would have though that they would have an integrated stock control / orders system (who knows though?) and thus if it was the latter then this to me would indicate a systemic problem (which does not appear to be the case looking at other power tools). Who knows, but I can't order it though ... .... not that I actually want to. Alex. |

Matt, have you looked at this saw in the real, or are making things up again? Screwfix have Ferm and now Titan, as the budget range and promoted Erbauer as the semi pro/pro range. Some of the Erbauer stuff is not cheap at all. |

I have seen Erbauer products, including those you mention and they are another bag of generic and underwhelming stuff. Whether they promote the stuff as pro or semi-pro is only relevant if they also have the service, backup and spares. -- ..andy To email, substitute .nospam with .gl |

Matt, the vast majority of Screwfixes customers are the trade and the vast majority of their power tools are pro tools. So, they must shift a lot of these to the trade. If they were useless they would not be sold. |

Screwfix sells a variety of power tools ranging from the entry level Erbauer, Ferm and Ryobi stuff to professional products such as Makita, DeWalt and Bosch. -- ..andy To email, substitute .nospam with .gl |
