This was 100% the best explanation I have ever seen on the “what table saw” debate. Awesome job my man.
Thanks for the very honest video. Its refreshing to see someone this your experience not telling a new woodworker that they need to go buy a $2000 table saw before they can even get started. I am also a new woodworker and started with a dewalt Jobsite saw and a track saw. I had the opportunity and space to get a cabinet saw and love it. But the cabinet saw really can't do more than I could with my little Jobsite saw. The difference is I know the cabinet saw is straight and true every time I use it. Wherewith my little Dewalt I was always readjusting and measuring. I also can feed thick stock much faster through the cabinet saw. However, I made terrific furniture with my little Dewalt and with patience and attention to detail anyone can use a less expensive saw and make almost anything they desire.
Absolutely the best explanation about the deference of table saws, it helps me a lot. Thanks so much!
The most in depth video I could find on this. Thanks for taking the time to explain everything! Liked and subscribed
I've had a Delta 1.5 horse contractor saw for 16 years. It has served me pretty good. Only the occasional bog down and breaker trip cutting thick hardwood. I am redoing my shop and am a pretty serious hobbyist. Two of the items on the long list of things I want to accomplish with redoing my shop is much better dust management and more power from my table saw. After much research I was set on a Sawstop PCS. Then a Grizzly G0690. Then a Delta Unisaw. Well, about 2 hours ago I ordered a Laguna Fusion F3. A cabinet saw isn't for everyone just like a jobsite saw isn't for everyone. Really enjoyed this video. It is chock full of common sense and accurate info. Thanks.
I have had a blue jet contractor saw for a long time and it has never had a problem now Getting a jet cabinet saw
I recently threw my jobsite saw in the trash. I wish I had seen this video before I purchased it. You just taught me more about table saws than my lecturer did at college☺👍
That was a fantastic explanation! I'm very thankful for learning all about the different levels/kinds. You are a great teacher.
This is the first time I’ve watched one of your videos… I’m really enjoying the information you convey. You’re answering a lot of questions that I feel stupid asking some of my friends who are much more knowledgeable. Thank you for a great video…I’ll be back to watch them all!
Yes thank you I'm about to buy one , sadly I will have to wait to watch it keep up the work mate
😂 I just bought my daughter an electric piano, and it got me thinking about these saws. The Jobsite saw is the equivalent of a 61 key electronic keyboard. The Contractor saw a 88 key electric piano with full hammer feel key board. The cabinet saw, a real grand piano. She got a the contractor version. 😂 As for me, finding this video comes at the perfect time. I’m looking for a saw, was thinking a contractor saw was what I need, will be building custom cabinets for my basement finish. After watching this video, I think I’ll save some cash and get the best job saw I can afford. Thanks for the information, very well explained and given with great detail. 👍
This has been super helpful. Thank you so much!
I just bought a new 5hp cabinet saw and what a pleasure to use after 10 yrs of the orange hybrid saw. Yes it is an investment but everything is that you want to enjoy. After a year I won’t think about the money spent but I sure will enjoy walking into my shop and see it waiting there for me to enjoy.
Great Video explaining the various table saws. Very well done, keep up the good teachings and knowledge sharing. I have seen videos where folks have gone and built their table saws using baltic birch plywood and have good level of accuracy like a contractor saw. My worry would be if the place where the saw is located and got wet I would thing it would end up going in the fireplace after it has been soaking for a while.
Thank you so much for this valuable video.
Terrific video on the range of table saws with a common-sense perspective. Have had all three: contractor, cabinet and job-site. My previous home workshop included a Powermatic 66 cabinet saw which was way overkill for what I did, but loved the accuracy, build quality and it was a joy to use. Now years later since moving, my home workshop is the half-garage version so everything has to be compact and/or mobile. Now have a Bosch jobsite saw on wheels ... and it does a first-class job, although for some cuts I really miss the larger table of the cabinet type machine. But I do agree that the better job-site saws have come along way and are likely a more than adequate choice for many home woodworkers or smaller shops.
Best video about table saw on line. Bravo & thanks
Thankyou for your insights sir, Im looking at saws right now, its a blinking nightmare trying to decide where to start with my first saw. You have definately helped me out.
This video is so helpful. Thanks so much!
This will become my new hobby (switching from photography which also is a high cost pursuit), and you have convinced me to get a contractor saw. I will probably never earn up to the capacity but it's nice to feel that you are in control. Thank you for sharing!
