Sawstop cabinet saw is very impressive.
Sawstop cabinet saw is very impressive.
Poor dust collection, lacked a riving knife, the rattling of the hand wheels drove me crazy for starters
This has not been my exerience
Maybe 20 years ago. Not today. I have owned PM, Jet, Steel City, Delta, etc
After owning one I would agree
As far as resale value of PM.... It should have a higher resale value because you pay about 2-3x as much. The 10% increase in quality/fit'n'finish doesn't equal the huge price increase.
I suspect the fit and finish is a bit nicer on the PM1000, but with twice the power the G1023RL should be the more capable saw when the going gets tough. Both are nice saws. It's a personal preference, but since the G1023RL is no slouch, I'd take the added power.
Happiness is like wetting your pants...everyone can see it, but only you can feel the warmth....
