I purchased a r4512 in january of 2013 and although ridgid has sent me new rail components and a complete new fence it still is pretty difficult to get a straight rip. The delta has a better fence and a better track record than the r4512 imo anyway.

Could be interesting in the long run even post warranty because the motor in the delta isnt your standard motor that youd find at harbor freight or tractor supply or any other old contractor saw.
