What kind of Table Saw?

[Showrides]

Just wondering what kind of table saws you guys use. I am picking up a new one in a few days, and want something that won't cost a ton, but will get the job done well. Let me know if you guys have any great ideas.

Thanks,

Ben

For light home-owner use Delta would be a good bet. They are not very expensive and decent saws. Otherwise Makita or Dewalt is good but more expensive.

i work at lowes in the tool department and i like the delta and the hitachi. We have a delta for 350 and it is a beast. we also have a hitachi for 199 and another for 279 they are both portable and nice also. The dewalt table saws are over priced and the delta ones are much nicer for the price.

I use the rigid table saw found at HD for 550. Best thing about it, the fence goes a full 3 feet. Only table saw under a grand I found that will do that. Has been great to me so far. I would strongly reccomend it.

I use the DeWalt 744S. It has a fence that is on a rack and pionion so the fence is always parallel to the blade. They sell it at Lowe's for $499. Yeah, a little price but well worth it because of the assured straight cuts

Not the one with the rack-and-pinion fence.

Also, how do you like the new-and-unimproved 'secured' genesis system.
