First, thanks to everyone at the Creek who's answered my questions about the DeWalt MBF over the last few weeks. You were a great help!
I finally picked the saw up today. The rip pawl is missing (but I'm not going to use it for ripping) and it's going to need new motor bearings. But the arm ways seem clean, the carriage bearings all rotate freely, and all of the adjustments work. The original table is a bit abused, but still flat and salvageable. For $60, I'm very happy.
Soon as I have it cleaned up and in working order, I'll sell my Craftsman RAS and put this one on the Craftman's base.
