Money To Burn, HELP I need to move quick! Before LOML wakes UP!

[Clint Winterhalter]

I wanted to thank everyone for the feedback they provided.
I've narrowed the hunt to two:

• 1023sl grizzly
• 35606 Steel City.

I'm going to KICK TIRES at a few dealers and then place my order. I called my brother in law and told him to pick up my highly modified CMan. I hope I don't miss my Vega fence! I'll keep you guys posted on my decision! Thanks again for all the feedback!

Well tonight at dinner, my wife asked me a question that almost had me fall to the floor. So are you still buying a new table saw? I told her in late 2006 that I planned to buy a new saw (that was before some major home repair issues, followed by a new home build computer.) I had pretty much decided that my CMan saw was going to last another year. Like they say, strike while the iron is HOT! When she asked the Saw question, I smiled and said I was just waiting for the weather to break! I figure I can spend arround $1K. What should I buy? Power isn't a problem. So do I Delta? Steel City? Powermatic? ETC. Should I do the Amazon dance or go local. I need some advice... I've got to move QUICK, before she wakes up!
Thanks..
Clint

I wanted to thank everyone for your feedback. I ordered my saw today!
I went with a 3HP Shopfox W1677 (basically a Grizzly 1023 with a white paint job). I bought it from a local dealer. I should have it next week sometime. Once I get it assembled I'll post some pictures.

Thanks Again!

Congrats! We'll all enjoy seeing the pics.

Congratulations Clint. Buying local should get you better support. Make sure to tell us how you like the TS after you've used it.

Clint: I have had my 1023SL now for almost a year and could not be happier. It is a solid, powerful and accurate table saw. For the price, it seems to me to be the best around. With shipping, the current price is $1,088.25. I built an out feed table w/tool storage, splitter (Biesemeyer) and aftermarket guard. It should give many, many years of service.
