Sorry... I did leave out the General table saws

The F-45 is a real piece of art.


I was wandering around the IWF in Atlanta one year and as
I came around a corner my wife was talking to a Altendorf
rep about what a "pretty" saw they built. I whispered the
price in her ear just to see the look on her face.


To just play with one will stun you. The sliding table moves with
one finger.


If you "ever" get a chance to see one....you will be amazed.


I'm familiar. A friend of mine and I took a drive to Toronto last year
to attend Woodworking Machinery Expo, just to see the Altendorf and
General (CNC) people. I thought 35 grand was a good price for that saw
(fully loaded). Altendorf is just getting better and better.


Are they fully CNC yet? *Just drop a sheet of ply on there and get all
your cuts from the press of a single button? (After a bit of
programming.

They can be had with motorized fences. Very accurate.
