Went a took a look at a number of saws today, one I did not see was the General 50-260, does anyone have it or checked it out?
Saw the General 185, 220, and the 650. Delta Unisaw, the X version of a cantractors saw and a few lesser models. The PM 66, and also stopped next door at Sears and checked out a few of theirs. The 185 and 220 were a bit less saw then I care to get while the 650, 66, and unisaw cost more then I can handle (at least so far :D). It'd be a tough call between them, very nice units. The Delta X contractors saw was very nice but getting it to be somewhat dust free would be a real challange, it's on the maybe list. Hate to say it but I was suprised by the pro craftsman model, probably on par with the Delta X contractors saw, if you balance out their pros and cons, about the same price too. Too bad I still have a bad impression for Craftsman stuff.
A year or 2 ago (well at least it seems like that long) you could get a Unisaw for about $1500, anyone still see deals like that?
