Check this one out. If I had room, I'd pursue it. After looking at the serial number and checking it on Bushton's site, it has the Fasco motor that was a problem. Not saying this one has that problem but something to think about.

Yeah, even if the motor had problems, LOL... That's how I bought my first Hawk $100 and I figured it'd give me a little taste of what the the Hawks are all about.. even if I had to put a $300 motor upgrade on it.. So far I don't have any issues other than if I change the speed while the saw is running.. it gets jumpy if I mess with the VS dial.. so it maybe going bad.. I got my money worth from it though. made about $5000 worth of inventory with it before getting the 226 Ultra.
