Top Breed Big-dog Saw is always Hungry!! [Posted on 2002-10-12]
A very accurate, durable and simple design has never let me down. I worked in a truss shop for two years building trusses by hand in SW Missouri and spent many hours at the controls of my 1440. We had three LS1440 stations set up, one backup, and a radial arm saw. Our saws took the hardest abuse day in and day out. Doing floor trusses one time I made +3,000 cuts with my 1440 in a 9 hour day! Maintenance is a piece of cake, changing the brushes and after the abuse we put them through occasionally changing the return spring, in addition to a WD-40 bath over the weekends. Custom beveled carbide tipped heavy-duty blades helped also. A sound investment brand new because I bet you won't be able to find any used for sale, people just don't get rid of what is a proven racehorse in my opinion. P.S.- By the way, we used only #1 yellow pine for all components of all truss designs. And if you don't believe me just look me up!

My company purchased this saw about a year ago. It does not cut square, and has a handle that is very uncomfortable to use. When making a verticle cut through 4" material the cut is 1/32" out from top to bottom.
