    Carriage Stop

    I did mine without the handles and I usually keep a allen wrench in it, for when I want to move and tighten. In hindsight I could have done better.

    Product Evosaw380

    I have the same thing from Princess branded Pro-Point. It has been a great saw. Not a good idea to cut mystery metal with it, but HR and mild steel is great.

Electric heater thermostats are a clumsy attempt to regulate heat. EDIT Here's an all in one unit, I remembered I use one of...
