x5 contractor table saw question
X5 consists of extended warranty and some BS gift deals.
If you like the non-X5 saw, get that one, and no, there
is no difference except for configuration.
The 50" fence is a much better deal if you gave the room.

I am looking at a contractor saw and focusing on the following two models
and was hoping to get some insight
Delta x5 Contractor saw with 1 cast iron extension 30 inch Unifence - $749
Delta 36-981 contractor saw (new model 4/2006)-left tilt with 2 cast iron
extension wings and 30 inch Commercial Biesemeyer fence -$789
My question-
which is better- the x5 saw which I assume is mostly the same saw as the
regular contractor saw with some parts made in the US and only 1 cast iron
extension wing or the newer 36-981 (not x5 brand) but
with the left tilt and 2 cast iron wings but made overseas?
Thanks
