Thanks for everyone's advice. Based on the recomendations and reviews I've read, just ordered the Rage 3S:

http://www.tesco.com/direct/evolution-rage3-multipurpose-sliding-mitre-saw-orange/210-2678.prd

Found a voucher and got £10 off!

This looks like a new model, with dust bag and guides/support rails.

I will give feedback in due course, and again, thanks for taking the time to reply.

Congrats on your purchase!!!  :congrats:

Did you get the 3-S (210mm blade)

Or the 3? (255mm blade)


You mention buying the 3-S but the Tesco's link is for the bigger Rage3 at £199  :happy2:

Either one will be great!  :wink:


Going back to the Screwfix Links....I'm pretty sure they wouldn't charge £60 just for some clamps you will never use and a dust bag.
I have a funny feeling that even the £99 one would come with ALL the accessories  :ashamed:

That one looks better than the one ive got in that it looks like it will accept larger items.  :happy2:

Youll find its really good... i did these 45º mitres with it and they were perfect.

Sorry, my mistake, it is the smaller 210:

Might drop into Srewfix and take a look at the boxes! Will let you know.

Right, an update.......

After much research it seemed that there were 2 different Evolution Rage 210 3's, one with accessories and one without (possibly other differences as well). This was based largely on images and descriptions. However, after calling Evolution (v helpfull), they advised that no model comes with these, and that the only difference is that one is largely flat pack, the other fully assembled. So ended up canceling the Tesco order, and picking one up from Screwfix for £99.99. Accessory pack only £9 delivered from Evolution, so done deal!

Anyway, thanks to everyone, cheers!
