Leon, I have had a chance to use a Sawstop, one that was tuned up by a
factory trained rep. That saw was SWEET. Quiet, powerful, accurate,
and the fit and finish on the saw was excellent.
If I were to buy a table saw, that would probably be my top choice.
It is in a wood shop now and has been used by a lot of different
folks, and all the baloney you hear about the saw firing off in an
almost random manner isn't true. I even cut some wet pressure treated
wood on it and it was fine.
However, the manager of the shop showed me a tiny scratch on his
finger... the piece of wood he was ripping shattered (some kind of
hardwood he scrounged that was cracked) and he slipped forward and his
finger touched the blade. He said there was a loud bang that
traumatized him more than the little nick, and when he recovered, he
put the new cartridge in the saw. The blade was ruined, but the
cartridge only took about 15 minutes to install and he was back in
business.
Oh yeah... he only had a nick on his finger instead of a bunch of
stitches.
I like those machines << a lot >>.

Obviously a Neander. He not only used planes, a brace, but an old fashioned
light bulb! It is appropriate that the light bulb was stored in a heirloom
quality box.
This person has way to much time on his hands.
Maybe Karl and Leon could fire up Sketchup and design their own down home,
Texas light bulb changer! <hint, hint> ;-)

LOL! OBTW! I sold my saw yesterday morning. Now looking at probably
replacing with the SawStop
I had that saw listed for 1 week and 3 days and the guy showed up
yesterday "totally" prepared with an enclosed trailer with fold down
back gate that worked as a ramp. Right out of my garage onto the ramp
and into the trailer. 30~40 seconds tops.

IIRC we have never had to cut that much plywood before but did do about

And then the saw that I will probably end up with. At about 5:44
minutes in the video there is a good shot under the hood of the
Industrial SawStop and why it is soooo much heavier than the
Professional SawStop. Massive full width trunnion, front and back.

only neck-size before reloading.

Well, until and if you replace it, I want to hear when you have a
cutting job that only a table saw could do.
I don't know if I could do without the use of a table saw in a
workshop. At the very least, it shouts out loud and clearly to anybody
looking at your shop ~ "WOODWORKER". A tracksaw just doesn't have
enough of a presence to do that.

A true Galoot would have used a turnscrew rather than a battery powered drill
assembling the ladder.
Thanks for the video posts. I snorted (liquid) coke when I saw the demo of hand
planing a melamine top. Both vids were great.

I saw a similar article in a recent issue of Shop Notes yesterday: Where
To Put Your Hinges (spacing). Gosh, I thought, if I was able to
figure out how to build a cabinet, then I could probably figure out
where to put the hinges! : )
The article was not visually unappealing, it just answered a question
that didn't need one (IMO).

Ouuuu very good to hear Robert! Thanks for the extra check mark of
approval.
If I go back with a traditional cabinet saw it will be a SawStop. But
this saw being the one that replaces my last, "last saw", again I want
to consider all the options. About the only other saws in the hunt are
the European saws, Still looking at Laguna and now Hammer.
The SawStop that you tried out, do you know if it was the Pro version or
the Industrial version? The pro has the plastic motor cover on the left
side of the saw and the industrial has the steel motor cover on the right.
I have looked at both but not quite close enough to make a decision. I
did not want to waste a lot of time, well more than I have already done,
investigating a saw that I was not quite ready to buy. I had no Idea
that my saw would sell so quickly. I really was not in a hurry to sell
it. I do like the table size of the industrial, 3" deeper and
conducting a scientific test similar to the integrity SAG test I
conducted on the desk upper storage cabinets, the industrial was a much
heavier feel'n SOG.
Darn near all of the Euro saws that I am considering have a sliding
table, and the Laguna has a scoring blade. The biggest problem I have
with the Euro saws is that they would be more trouble to move around and
that would be a daily routine for me, and the Euro style rip fences wold
have to be removed by sliding them off the end of the round steel bar.
There would be no more lifting the fence straight off the saw. I
extensively use the "T" stile fence on both sides and that would no
longer be possible. I am sure I can find work arounds for all of these
issues but do I want to? OH and all the Euro saws are right tilt.
Any way I'll keep y'all posted. Seems there might be a new Hammer
dealer in Dallas, I might be able to touch and feel the saw.

I especially like the storage of the spare.

Watched a video recently of a pretty high end Laguna CNC sliding panel
saw. It's BIG and undoubtedly expensive, so I'm doubting it's what you
have in mind for your purchase ~ but you never know.

Yup, many times when the buddies would drop over, we'd end up in the
workshop and use the table saw to place our beers. Didn't use coasters
though. There something very manly in having several condensation
rings on your table saw surface.

Yup, beat you to it and I'm considering if I should also fly down
there and beat you in person for calling me Han. :)

Nooooo. I just sold my Jet cabinet saw on Friday. I had it listed for
about 10 days and then it was gone. I ordered the industrial SawStop
today.

So you pulled the trigger, eh? Good on ya. We expect a full report.
But you now have serious problem. How is the SawStop black going to go with
the Festool green? They definitely clash. Time to call in a decorator.

Yeah! And or all the white on the other stuff. I hope I am mistaken,
SawStop may have missed the boat on color. It looks really good when
clean. I'll add that I am not a stickler for having a pristine
"looking" shop when it comes to dust. I'm hoping that the saw will not
look 10 years old after a days work. ;~)
