I'll also attest to the simplicity and durability of the Logan.
I only lend mine out with the proviso that they can only borrow it 
once, after which they have to buy their own. 9 out of 10 do get their 
own.
Only thing, the blade is good for 3 boards max. Otherwise the corners 
and some parts of the straight cut will start ripping.
