Hello all. I have been on several sites including SMC reading up on the Grizzly G1023RL and G0690/1. Goodness there are a lot of similar requests for help deciding between the two!
However, my request is just ever so slightly different. I have been toying with the idea(s) of reconfiguring my tool selections somewhat. I currently have an old General International contractor type saw with good cast iron wings. Nice saw and does just fine in my tiny shop, but the blood lust for a cabinet saw more along the lines of what I use professionally, is proving to be quite strong. I feel that the little General saw is heading to my youngest son for continued use, and I think I would like to get either a G1023RL or G0690 for its replacement. I wonder if any of you who own these saws would be kind enough to post me some pictures of the SHOP FOX fence that comes with these saws? Any comments on the fence is appreciated also. Shoot, now that the G1023RL has been out a while, I would love to hear any comments on ownership of either of these saws too. Nothing too elaberate, just how they are holding up since being purchased.
I also think, while we are on the beloved subject of being a tool addict, that I may consider packaging my INCA 510 and the General saw for my son, thereby affording myself an excuse for buying a G634XP Jointer/Planer combo to go with the cabinet saw.....hmmmmm.....why not a General International bench top mortiser too while we are at it....
