On a rock in the middle of the sea.
Such a thing of sheer beauty (no I'm not talking about Kelly Brook...!)

Came home tonight to find my newly delivered DeWalt D24000 in the hallway.

First impression was, OMG how enormous is this going to be, what a size the box is....

Notice the separate leg stand box, which is included in the excellent price at Tradetiler (which I must point out, David has said is to be increased at the end of this month, so get your orders in now!!)

Everything was packaged perfectly as to be expected from DeWalt.

Once all unpacked onto the kitchen table, I was expecting to have to get the University Professor that lives next door to come in and give me a hand assembling it:yikes:All the parts have an incredible feeling of build quality, which gave me the impression that this machine will last for years to come...

Anyway I got stuck in at precisely 4.30 pm....
First the legstand and water tray...

Next the saw itself...

The new model has an extra bolt and locating pins to secure the saw body to the rails...

So far, so good...

IMG00063-20100618-1658.jpg


All done at 5.15pm (not bad for the first time..)

The one and only thing that I cannot demonstrate in a photo, is the incredible power you experience when you turn this machine on....WOW what a machine.
Cannot wait to get started with it.
