Never hear much about shop fox on here.
Looking to buy their cabinet saw -5 hp
any comments?


I have the 3hp left tilt with the classic fence and also the 2hp dust
collector. I am very happy with both.

Shop Fox is not made by Grizzly as some think. It's Woodstock
International line of tools. It is carried by a lot of dealers including
Grizzly. Also as someone else pointed out, why are you looking at the
5hp. If it's not a production shop with the saw running all day long
with a power feeder a 3hp is all one should need. Also it's not numbered
like the craftmans peek hp.

none-the-less.
