me too
I burned up my first dewalt (15 amp) saw before I finished my flat bed. It lasted all of 2 weeks. I let it cool down good after every 8 cuts or so, slow & easy on the cuts yadda, yadda, yadda. Got it replaced and the "newer" one is on its way out the frickin door. Maybe I just got 2 bad ones but it seams like it does not even like to cut 2x2x1/4 angle. Also neither one has cut square from the start. I had to bolt them down and shim up under the spring. I have an older Makita 13 amp that never gives up, throw it on the table and cut away.
