I've got a cheap Pro Tech table saw that I've used for years. It's okay for general contracting work, but for a good straight cut, it's a bit lacking and for wider cuts it's about useless.
I'd like something that's close to "cabinetry" grade if ya know what I mean. Something that can handle a wider cut and has a good fence. I'm going to be doing some trim work on the patio using LP Smartside to wrap posts and beams on my patio project so good straight cuts on longer boards will be a necessity. I have to spend time with a square to make sure the fence on my current saw is square to the blade. I'd rather not spend that time if I can avoid it. Plus the fence on the saw I have doesn't lock down the best even when I tighten the handle in a bit.
I'm thinking the Delta 36725T2 will fit the bill. The fence isn't quite Pro grade but it appears solid. The saw accepts a dado blade and has an optional extension table to make wider cuts. I found one on FB MP for $700 that comes with the router table extension, router, and some other nice bits and pieces.
Thoughts?
