My wife is keen on me getting a Saw Stop table saw because of the safety side of things. But she wants me to wait until they have a contractor's saw available (I believe it is out now, but we still can't afford this thing for another 6 to 12 months anyway) because the cost of the cabinet maker's saw is steep. I know, I know... what's the cost of a hand or a middle finger compared to a new saw... But I'm thinking that I might be able to convince her that I could get a Grizzly cabinet maker's saw for the same price, or near about, as a Saw Stop contractor's saw. My concern is in moving a Grizzly (or something like it) around my garage. As I understand it, the big saws weigh about 400 or 500 pounds. Is it possible to have a cabinet maker's saw on a rolling base for mobility, or should they generally be placed in one position and left there? Is it smart to be moving a cabinet maker's saw on a mobile stand, in terms of twisting the frame or throwing the alignment off? Can a 170lb shrimp like me move a 400lb cabinet maker's saw without throwing my back out again? Thanks.
