My new Steel City Saw vs. KingKong
My new Steel City small 10" cabinet saw arrived at the dealers today. I
can't believe the packaging this saw came in. After listening to horror stories of shipping problems I think the pictures of the way Steel City ships it's products will be refreshing. http://www.nami-savannah.org/woodworking.htm I know this saw resembles the Sears Orion saws but the quality of the fit and finish is way more than I expected and it was available with a 3 hp motor and 2X heavy duty belt for the same price as the Sears saw. After using a 1958 Sears contractor saw for over 45 years ( which has had every part replaced at least once) I think this new saw will rock. |

My new Steel City Saw vs. KingKong
Not only does the saw resemble the Sears-Orion, so does the cage. My
Craftsman Zip Code saw came enclosed in a cage that looks just like it. Like you, I really didn't want to waste it so I knocked off the stubby little legs, installed some casters roughly where they were, bolted a piece of plywood to the top and mounted my bench grinder on it.

I haven't even seen any of their goods yet. The nearest distributor to me is 350 miles and one state away. -- JeffB remove no.spam. to email |
