Several Regions have held meetups already, but others are being planned or are evaluating the interest. The Ontario GTA West area meetup is planned for Saturday April 26th at Greasemonkeys shop in Aylmer Ontario. If you are interested and haven’t signed up yet, click here! Arbutus has also explored interest in a Fraser Valley meetup but it seems members either missed his thread or had other plans. Let him know if you are interested in a meetup later in the year by posting here! Slowpoke is trying to pull together an Ottawa area meetup later this summer. No date has been selected yet, so let him know if you are interested here! We are not aware of any other meetups being planned this year. If you are interested in doing something in your area, let everyone know and make it happen! Meetups are a great way to make new machining friends and get hands on help in your area. Don’t be shy, sign up and come, or plan your own meetup!

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. I have found, after spending up to $200 a blade for it, the the best blades are also at PA, and I bought 5 on sale at $49 each.
The KBC version is a great price and I paid $400 for mine about 2015.

I have the evolution saw. Bought is for 335 on amazon a last year. Fantastic saw. Well made, solid.
I use it for tubing, angle iron etc, but have not tried say 4” solid bar.
Cuts are clean (surgical), metal is cool to touch. I haven’t used my abrasive cutoff since, and never will again.
Chips are sharp and plentiful, beautiful blue color.
It’s not a replacement for a band saw though. But if I were making lots of cuts and fabricating frames I’d have this saw.
