Dan,

¡°I have not experienced the same frustrations that Imran has with his saw, just need to develop a feel for the switches that control the height..¡±

Not sure what you are saying. I agree, with powerdrive there is no issue to set height. Works fine on my Dual 51. My comment was regarding K1 powerdrive on my used K975. Aaron thought that would be a desirable build feature (presumably from cost standpoint) but I was warning him that it is impossible to set the blade to an exact height without full powerdrive. With K1 all I have is a 2-speed up and down switch. There is no way to hit a desirable blade height.

If a manufacturer just added DROs (not expensive compared to motorized motion) to the crank raise and tilt, I think many would be happy and not pay for the full powerdrive.

I have k2 power drive on my saw (long story on how I acquired a slider with k2 power drive controls and it didn¡¯t cost me a dime extra) and can¡¯t imagine having to crank a handle around all the time. I have not experienced the same frustrations that Imran has with his saw, just need to develop a feel for the switches that control the height..?

?Imran - good to know.? Maybe the K2 power drive is the only way to go if you are looking at motorized lift/angle.

PK - I wish I had your deep pockets!
