I took a look at Felder.

5300 bucks for a saw that can't break down a sheet of plywood?Â* I'm
afraid that they need to learn a bit about the American market before
they try to sell those things here.

You will have to tell us exactly which Felder saw you looked at
that cannot break down a sheet of plywood.

The one that has a 30 inch rip limit and costs 5300 bucks.

Any pro shop "breaking down sheets of plywood" will have a panel
saw for that purpose.Â*Â* Silly to use a tablesaw for that.


Totally agree if this type of panelsaw, which is a table saw.

Â*Â* The panel saws that you see in Home Depot for cutting plywood are
IMHO not the best set up.Â* I do not like the horizontal cuts that they
make.Â* the top portion of the cut piece pinches the blade near the end
of the cut.


They are great for breaking down sheets to rough sizes, but that's about
it.
The ones at HD are not kept up very well, always have dull blades and
the operators are hit or miss.



I suspect the dull blades are because of the pinching and burning at the
end of the horizontal buts. ;~)
