Homebrew PCBs

Baxter,

Thanks for the info and link to the review. Looks like at least one guy 
is not very satisfied with his Proxxon table saw.

I've had pretty good success with the Home Depot saw and the Lopacki 
diamond saw blade. Wonder how much FR4 cutting one can do with that 
blade before it has to be replaced?

Proxxon makes superior products, but I don't think their saw is suitable for cutting dry abrasive materials like FR-4. The dust will take out the bearings pretty fast. Also, it appears that the saw is underpowered. See the one star review here,
