I seem to recall that sears once made a tilting "head" sort of saw some years ago. I happened to be in sears today and saw a new 10" version which looked halfway decent except the table was aluminum. The tilt mechanism and chassis all appeared to be cast steel.
Kind of reminded me of my fathers Delta tilting table saw in reverse. Anyway, the Sears unit was priced a little less than the new Hitachi
12" saw they have at Lowes. The Hitachi is supposed to be an excellent saw.I think I can get by with a 10" or 12" BS and I'll have to keep looking. I was hoping to find a nice 14" Delta (used) but the one I almost jumped on got jumped by somebody else before I ever got to see it. Such is life. I guess I should look at the Delta 10" and the Jet
12" as both have cast iron tables. Strange that the Delta 12" doesn't.If there's anyone in the Hartford/Springfield area looking to sell a BS and move up to something bigger/better, post a follow up here.
