        Does the borg still carry the 3650? That was replaced by the 3660, which isn't in my local borg now, as that has been replaced by the new granite topped hybrid.

          Some very interesting things occurred today folks. As mentioned above, I went to the Depot this morning to discover the 3650 is gone and the granite top model has taken its place. $600. I wanted to think a bit more and went back to the workshop and accidentally discovered that the power strip I had the saw plugged into was fried and nothing worked that I plugged into it. I plugged the dead 3100 into a wall outlet to discover new life and joy in the Crockett household once again! I am embarrassed to admit that here but it seems I burned out the power strip but not the saw. Though I am embarrassed to share it I am very happy to still have the saw and for not having to spend $600! By the way I am not the Crokett who is building the new work shop and a moderator here I believe. Similar for sure in name, but I a don't think he would have burned out a power strip and declared his saw dead!
          take care

              Ah, a 15 amp saw connected to a power strip?

              I know they make heavy duty power strips, but that is a LOT of load for a power strip...

                I saw a new motor assembly in Ebay for $167 + about $27 shipping. Is that a viable option?

                    Newbie Has A Question

                    That's sad. Question: How many HP is my old BT3000? is it the equivalent of 1HP or 1.5 or what?
