full manufactured cost for a cast iron table about $.60/lb which makes
a table for a 10" saw about $11/sq. ft. I doubt seriously if you can
take a slab of granite, machine an insert opening, miter slots, bore
holes and set inserts for cabinet attachment holes, guide rail
attachment holes and even come close to that cost.

Never claimed I could. "Not unresonable" was the phrase. A bit reading
impaired?



No, but I know if you try to put a new material on a table saw and it
adds $50 bucks to the base cost as a granite table more than likely
would then mark it up with manufacturers and dealers margin the market
would consider that unreasonable and wouldn't pay it.
