Since then I have added a Fenner Drives PowerTwist link belt, replaced the tiny toggle switch with a paddle switch and wired it for 230 V, added a Delta 50-390 removeable outfeed table hardware kit, and designed the most efficient and user friendly dust collection to it that you'll ever see.
Sliding table for delta unisaw full size#
In 1995 I bought a new American made Delta 34-444 Contractor's table saw that came with a Unifence and a full size mobile base, make it a 34-445X package. I've been a woodworker for about 30 years. However, if you can afford it, I am totally with you on the made in the USA sentiment. The new Unisaw from all reports, is an incredible tool, but from my understanding, it's about double the price of a comparable grizzly saw.

I'm gettin' real sensitive lately about "Made In USA" labels.įor what you're wanting to do, you could easily do it with a shop made crosscut sled. If that be so, I'd rather have a new Unisaw and keep USA citizens employed. Still, on pieces this size I usually find that shipping cost can all but wipe out any savings. The G0623X Cody recommended is about the same as a basic Delta Unisaw althought the outrigger sliding attachment is MUCH more than I need. Belts disintergrating and metal failure are some of the issues I remember. However I have seen a disturbing trend here on WoW of how some of you guys who've had quality issues lately. I've been a fan of Grzzly tools for a long time. Thus, the increased distance between the saw tooth and miter fence for most sliders is what I have my eye on. They tend to top out size wise at 24" x 48". The largest pieces I'd normally cut would be for squaring up large panel glue ups for doors and such. Strangely enough I only use my DeWalt DCSMS for rough cuts I could just as easily do with my Ryobi battery circle saw. I presently use the miter guage on my Dewalt 744 TS for all finish cuts. Most of my lengths are under 5' long with the vast majority under 3'. I'm trying to conserve some precious shop floor space by not having a miter or radial arm. Normally I cross cut slightly overlength and rip according to need. I do almost everything from solid (real :D) wood. When I do I usually buy a cut piece from Lowes just big enough to get the parts I need. My use of a sliding table attachment is not for sheet stock.
