Grizzly G0478 hybrid saw
I am looking at upgrading my small contractors saw to a Hybrid. The
ones I am looking at are the Craftsman, The new Delta 36-717 Hybrid, the Delwalt and then I found that Grizzly has a new Hybrid, the G0478. Can anyone tell me about this saw? or any of the others. Good and Bad. The woodcraft store was pushing the Delta at $949 with 10% off. But the Grizzly is listing at like $780 with shipping. But since the Grizzly seems new, I cannot find any information on it. It's got a 2 Hp motor on it too. which I like. I've read some positive reviews on Grizzly products in general but have never seen one in person. Any help would be greatly appriciated. Ben |

Ben Is there a reason why you aren't just looking at a full blown cabinet saw? For the price of that Delta, you could be getting the Grizzly 1023 cabinet saw.....very nice saw and the price is very attractive. Cheers, cc |

Grizzly G0478 hybrid saw
Well I'm not sure I want to spend this much either. This is a hobby
for me. I built my Kitchen cabinets on a small craftsman contractor saw and they turned out amazing. I guess I'm just good at measuring. I was also just looking at settling on the Ridgid contractors saw. I know it's not the best but 99% of the revies I've read say it's a great buy for the money.

Grizzly G0478 hybrid saw
Here is the best review of this saw that I've seen. I was looking hard
at buying one myself, but have since decided to go with the Grizzly 1023SL. Hope this helps... http://groups.google.com/group/rec.w...82ecf5ed3eec66 |

Grizzly G0478 hybrid saw
I own the Carftsman 22114 and have beeen VERY happy with it. Ready to
go right out of the box. Quet. Very little vibration. Takes standard Delta accessories. Two big plusses: NO shipping charges if you pick it up from any Sears store. I got mine for about $475 what with club discounts, sales, etc. Is the 22114 a left or right tilt machine...can't tell from the poor description on the Sears website |

There's certainly no shame in that! I used a Jet CS for awhile and built some pretty nice stuff. I think a lot of times, it's whose hands the tool is in that makes the difference, not necessarily the tool! Cheers, cc |
