Not directed at the OP.  Just a comment on the dismal regularity this saw is bandied about.  

For the record, yes I fucking well am an artist.  I paint in gouache, oils, acrylics, draw in pastels, pencils, wax damn crayons, chalk, magic markers, india ink and brush, sharpies and anything I can get me hand on, I take photos with a "real" 35mm SLR and a digital SLR, I make stuff from modelling clay, wood, plastic, and almost anything that doesn't move.

And I also use Poser. 

Coppula eam se non posit acceptera jocularum.
