How's the Delta 36-680 as a First saw?
I have a budget of $600 for a new saw. How will the Delta 36-680 stackup?
Any suggestions of other saws in my budget range? |

Mine has served me well, but I think I am beginning to out grow it now. Not enough power and a **** poor fence. Otherwise a great first saw. -- Stoutman http://home.triad.rr.com/brianmeliss...ing_frames.htm |

Or were being sarcastic Its like driving a Honda Accord, it gets you were you need to go. It's just not a Porsche. Sturdy, rock solid cast iron table. Not that aluminum crap. It gets the job done. I think I may have been a little to critical of the fence. It does ok. I checked it for alignment with a dial caliper from front to back and it did 'ok' . I dont remember the numbers. and it went over my head? |
