Craftsman Miter box saw question

["Gary Smith"]

I just bought the below linked saw at a yard sale for $10 and at the time I thought I got a buy. I go the the sears site to pick up a new blade and it is no longer available, I was hoping that someone here could point me in the right direction or tell me the saw isn't worth my time!
Can any body give me their experiences with this saw?
Model 881-3643
I really can't believe that Sears doesn't have blades for it...............wonder if I could return it because I'm not satisfied!

That looks like the miter saw that i bought for my father back in the eighties. It worked fairly decent (better than wood or plastic miter boxes). Maybe you could adapt a [URL="http://www.toolsforworkingwood.com/Merchant/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=toolshop&Produ ct_Code=GT-BOW12.XX"]bow saw blade[/URL] to fit it? If not, you could always hold your own yard sale and see if you could get your $10 back.
