    Jet Contractor saw ??

    I was going through my company's back warehouse and came across a Jet contractors saw. It is the one with the stamped metal wings and 1-1/2 HP motor. Looked like it had a Bies style fence on it. Didn't get to take a good long look at. I asked our tool person about it and she said they would probably sell it for $150.00. Don't know how old it is but it looks a lot like the one on Amazon. Think it is worth that amount?
    I cut it twice and it's still too short

    Hey Gordy,
    1.5 HP isn't a whole lot of power and the stamped wings knock it down a little more. If it is a Bies, It might be worth it just for the fense. I'd say that's about the going rate.

    Is it a JWTS-10? That's what I have and I have been very satisfied with it. They are > $500 on Amazon right now.

    It isn't a cabinet saw but it is a very good contractors saw.

    Yes, it is worth that.

    I used to have one and they are great saws.



    Well worth $150, even if you have a PM66 or Unisaw and don't have the room for it! I'd take it.
