- I just bought a 10" Sears Table saw - their Contractors saw. After reading
- the many flames regarding Sears tools, I'm wondering whether or not I should
- return it and go with something else. I preferred the Craftsman over the
- Delta, because of the cast iron extensions. The Craftsman also uses steel
- handwheels as opposed to the plastic that Delta uses.
-
- I've just about got the saw setup. I'm not crazy about the fence, but
- Biesmeyer makes a bolt on replacement should I prefer to upgrade.
-
- I'm interested in hearing the good and bad regarding the Craftsman
- Contractor's Saw. Note, I'm not interested in the other models Sears
- offers.
-
- Assuming I have $600.00 to spend, is there something else that is preferred
- over the high end Craftsman Table Saw?
