Grizzly G0478 hybrid saw

Is there a reason why you aren't just looking at a full blown cabinet saw? For the price of that Delta, you could be getting the Grizzly 1023 cabinet saw.....very nice saw and the price is very attractive. Cheers, cc

Well I'm not sure I want to spend this much either. This is a hobby for me. I built my Kitchen cabinets on a small craftsman contractor saw and they turned out amazing. I guess I'm just good at measuring.

I was also just looking at settling on the Ridgid contractors saw. I know it's not the best but 99% of the revies I've read say it's a great buy for the money.

Here is the best review of this saw that I've seen. I was looking hard at buying one myself, but have since decided to go with the Grizzly

I own the Carftsman 22114 and have beeen VERY happy with it. Ready to go right out of the box. Quet. Very little vibration. Takes standard Delta accessories.

Two big plusses:

NO shipping charges if you pick it up from any Sears store. I got mine for about $475 what with club discounts, sales, etc.

Is the 22114 a left or right tilt machine...can't tell from the poor description on the Sears website

There's certainly no shame in that! I used a Jet CS for awhile and built some pretty nice stuff. I think a lot of times, it's whose hands the tool is in that makes the difference, not necessarily the tool! Cheers, cc

I've been looking at the Grizzly hybrid too. Looking at the manual (on line) it seems the guts are hooked to the top by trunions. My understanding is that this makes squaring the table to the blade difficult. Isn't this one of the main advantages of cabinet saws (table separately adjustable)? If so, I think I'll go with the G0576.

I'd go all the way with a cabinet saw, but I'm not into lugging the thing into the basement (and then back out in a year or so).

Me too.
