Hey Ken,

I am also in Michigan (Houghton, in da U.P.)

I have a couple of nice Craftsman mitre saws in my stash. On your mitre box,
measure the distance between the bottom of the saw guides and the bed to
determine the ideal height of the saw plate. I'll then measure up my saws to see
if there is a good match.

GGG's,
When my family and I moved here from Michigan some years ago, I think
the saw that came with my miter box (an 80's vintage Craftsman) failed
to make the move.  I went to the Borg and bought a "miter saw" but it's
only 14" and just not long enough to get a decent stroke in the box.  If
any Galoots have one they can part with, I'd be willing to pay a fair
price for it.

Ken
