I'm starting to rebuild my ww shop after being away from it for a few
years. For a TS, I'd always planned on getting a Delta Unisaw since I
want a good quality product that I can use for years into the future.
However, I've seen a few posts (on this and other forums) that suggest
the current Delta quality isn't what it used to be. Is that a fair
impression? If so, are there other recommendations?

thanks,
Paul

I reciently bought a shiney new Delta Unisaw (LE LT 3hp). It is
great. I made a 'Wooden Screen' with the 50t blade that comes with it
(I'll get to the WWII later, the 50t has been great so far). Cut just
barely past 1/2 way through a sheet of baltic birch ply. Parallel
cuts 1/8 wood, 1/8 dado... and on the opposite side at 90 degrees to
them. Took alot of precision and time but the Unisaw did it
beautifully.

It took 2 of us to assemble it easily. It was missing 2 screws. But,
that was the only flaw. TS-Aligner Jr said the blade was aligned to
3/1000 out of the box. I cannot complain.
