I saw the flyer. The one saw they had in the same ballpark as the Grizzly
and Woodtec (under $1000)
appears to be nothing more than a contractor's saw with a fancy base. I
may be wrong but it weighs around
150lb. lighter than the Grizzly. The saw I'd love is still around $2k so
out of my budget! Thanks for the
headsup though!

Thanks folks for the opinions. I think I'll just stick with the Grizzly

and the end of the year!

General does have a sale going on right now. Dealers should have a flyer
with details, or you can view it on their website (www.general.ca I
think). I don't have any connection with General, except for just
buying a GI bandsaw on sale now. I have yet to cut anything with my saw,
but it looks to be very well designed and nicely finished (damn near
perfect).

As to Woodtek, my only contact with their stuff is a Woodtek sander that
my Dad said was the worst tool he had ever bought. It might not be
useful to judge the quality of their entire line based on one crummy
sander but I would be careful. Grizz seems like a much safer bet.
