Bill Schwab is an unknown quantity at this point
I wanted to add one thing. If you do alot of double sided walls, or raised patios, it would behoove you to invest the $4,500.00 for a 20" saw. I built our first two, so we had a saw we did not need to use a machine to move around like other 20" saws, but lemme tell you. Having the ability to saw completely through up to an 8" block with one perfect 90° and taking 10 seconds to cut what typically takes 5 minutes, assuming you align both cuts perefectly, shaves time off the jobs.

The blades are costly, dancing around the $300.00 mark, you need a minimum of 14 horsepower, and the saw bed has to be larger. You will never regret the larger saw if and or when you gain the need to own one.
