   I own the Osborne EB3, a recent purchase at a wood show.  Very happy with it.  A huge improvment over the stock gauge.  The standard angles are really easy to dial in, but I think some of the other gauges on the market may be a little easier to set.  I was in the market, and the price of this guy was to good to pass up: $100 Cdn.

   I have the 1000se and love it. It's dead on, and you can sneak up on a line in the smallest of increments.  I have the Incra LS fence system as well for my router table. You can't go wrong with incra stuff.  I can's speak to the other model, as I have never used one.

   RFD. I have an old contractors saw(full cast wings 1 1/2 hp) that I use with a JDS miter 18 to 34" with a flip stop . It's fit and finish was super and it is deadly  accurate. I just acquired a Delta 3hp Unisaw and promptly ordered the larger 24 to 46"       Acu-miter with the very ugly clamp, that I expect will do the job as all their stuff is engineered to a fair thee well and I can now mix and match the three units as needed on the two saws. I looked at all the hot market items and found them over advertised (you really don't need to get to a 1/2 degree as super as that sounds, your working in wood not tool steel) where they didn't really have the solid construction that would work accurately over the long term.

   My decision to buy the second miter was really not a decision - it was a reflex- just what I needed to run the new saw. They are not cheap but ya will not need to buy another one. Pat

   I have the Incra 1000, bought before the SE version was available.  I dunno, the Osborne always looked pretty awkward to me.
