Unisaw questions

I have decided to go with a 50" Unisaw for my shop. It seems that Amazon
has a good price on the 36-844. It will run $1750, plus free shipping
and mobile base. I was wondering how much assembly is involved when it
comes, not counting calibration. Will it fit through a 36" doorway? TIA

My Jet involved attaching the right and left steel wings, fence rail, magnetic
switch, rear table support rail, lift/tilt wheels, table board and legs. The
Jet fit through a 30" door. The Delta will be similar.

As a matter of fact, one is coming to my town next month. I was planning
on looking there before I buy. A great way to compare a lot of machines.

The base need to be assembled, install the wings, side table board and fence
rail. I think it took me about 1.5 hours this past winter but I also removed
the top to go through a 32" doorway so I could go down my basement stairs. I
found the directions excellent, everything explained step by step. The
Unisaw was the the first piece of woodworking tools I purchased, I
figured....buy it once and be set for life. If I ever sell my home I don't
know how I'm going to get everything back up those stairs.....bandsaw,
jointer, radial arm saw and router cabinet.

Good Luck

Thanks for the details, John. Now I won't worry about opening up the
doorway. But on the other hand, it would have been a good excuse to buy
a new Sawzall........... ;-)
