I bought the delta a few years ago. The set screws to adjust the slop in
the miter slot bar were stripped when I got it. Was pretty disappointed at
first, but it's fixed and works fine now. The micro adjustment is real
nice. Admittedly, the jig is used only to mass produce, otherwise, I hand
cut or bandsaw. -dave

Considering

$79 Shopfox Woodstock -

$85 Delta 34-183

$109 Jet 708111

$106 Rockler http://www.rockler.com/ecom7/findpro...=10185&clk=412

I did a Google search and read the comments about quality of the delta and
that the Jet and powermatic are identical. I have not read anything about
the shopfox or rockler. I did see some previous posts about having to
tweak
the miter guide rail on some saws. I have a Grizzly 1023 right tilt. I'm
thinking the shopfox should be as close to plug and play. Are the slot to
blade measurements the same on Griz and Delta and PM?


i got the 60$ one at woodcraft. set it up and made a couple test cuts.
seems to be servicable. when i get a chance to realy USE it i will
post some more thoughts.
