There is a much less expensive Euro alternative.

 Laugh, and the world ignores you. 
 Crying doesn't help either.

Certainly not as good if you watch this:

This has a much better alignment design.

One Mafell tool that really peaks my interests is their self
propelled track saw. It's been talked about here before, but I think
it deserves repeated mention. At $2500 it's not cheap, but there you
go.

Yeah, but that's with the guides which need some weight to hold the
pin points in place. ~ Anyway, much lighter than hauling your
contractor's saw out to a job site.

Considering my circumstances, it would be something I'd seriously
consider under the proper conditions. Have to see if I can find some
real user opinions on the thing.
