10 inch cabinetmaker's table saw

I haven't kept up with the Sears line of saws for a long time, but $912 new? For years they continued cheapening their saws to maintain a price point somewhere in the $300-400 range. That $400 he's asking strikes me as just about what he paid for it. To me it looks like about 1980s vintage, too.

Wait a minute. I just saw that's a Canuckistani price. In that case, it might actually have been $912 depending on how bad the exchange rate was at the time he bought it. However, $400 is way high now whether it's USD or CDN.

Looks like junk to me. First of all that's not a cbinetmakers saw, it's a low contractors table saw.

I sold one just like it a few years ago and was tickled pink to get $100US for it. The sears fence was a complete piece of crap and the tilt mechanism was "anchored" to the sheet metal side which flexed badly. Run away. Now. Art

While Sears sold this saw by Emerson as a "Cabinet Makers" it was really = a "Contractors" saw which came in 2 varieties and maybe more depending = upon the fence.

The Cheap version to which you refer is the one in the picture, The = better(?) version cost a hundred more and came with an "extend-a-rip" = fence (a poor mans Beismier - not sure about the spelling). Sears even = tried selling them for $1400 but found no takers.

I have the latter version and am totally happy with the results it can = deliver. Parallel and tuned, this saw delivers really true and clean = rips.

If the pictured saw is acquired, the only things needed would be, a new = carbide blade, an upgraded fence, and serious tune up.

This is a cheap contractor table saw. The $400 could be better spent.

It could be a cabinetmakers saw. What it's definitely not is a cabinet saw.

Well it may have been a Cabinet Makers saw but certainly not a Cabinet Saw.

Not a Cabinet Saw, but very could have been a cabinet makers saw.

I know it will kill you to conclude something about minds thinking alike, but I posted exactly the same sentiment about three hours earlier.

I only posted it once, though.

LOL, I was too busy straightening out the misunderstanding to read all the comments first. You won the race.
