Default What is DeWalt/B&D radial arm saw worth?

Ditto and I wouldn't part with mine either. Sure beats a table saw

Yeahbut, I so prefer my SCMS over any radial arm saw for this type
of work.


One area where a RAS beats the SCMS is when crosscutting dadoes.


Up to the point where you're working with extremely wide boards, I don't see
this being the case. I can easily set the depth of my SCMS to plow dados up
to 14" wide.
