    I saw the screws, looked like it was permanently mounted. I want to swap between saws. I think 2-sided will work.

    I hear ya. looking for square grinder. I read somewhere where they were using a stihl round grinder and getting surprisingly close to square. Top plate was really close but the side was slightly round. Amazing what the interweb finds.

    You'll need a tech that can read the 2 pulse flywheel. There's really no need for a tach on a mtronic saw though.
