so i have been on the market for a new table saw because my old craftsman just was not cutting it! no pun intended. so i found myself browsing CL and stumbled upon this!!

http://inlandempire.craigslist.org/tls/999386162.html

what do you guys think of this table saw and router?? i know they are not the best in the world but let me know if you have any experience with them. thx

i would say so! came with alot of stuff i dont even know what its for haha.

now i can build boxes!!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

anyone in socal need one? haha

 
From the pics it looks like its a direct-drive. I prefer a belt-drive unit, but for that price it was probably a solid deal.
i know i like belt drive as well but i couldnt pass this up! shoot if it doesn't suit my needs i shall re-sell it.

 
It will probably work fine. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
hope so! hey so i have no experience with a plunge router. do you have any good tips for me?

Hmmm. For the average box building project, there really are only a few different bits and techniques you need to understand. Roll over bit, flush bit, and a 1/4" spiral up-cut bit.
I recommend picking up those bits, then play with some test wood to practice. You'll catch on fast, its easy with the right tools.

Oh, dont forget to order a Jasper jig.
