A look at a german table saw (Rapid PK-100)

[Phil Thien]

I find it kinda odd that it has a sliding table considering how the blade tilts. I mean I'd much rather have a screw tilting arbor than a sliding table. Weird.

I guess it is all personal preference. Me, I'd prefer a sliding table w/ decent capacity, I don't change the blade's angle often enough to make the lack of a handwheel that big a deal.

Although, I recently picked a portable table saw (Porter Cable) over others because it DID have the handwheel for angle. But that was "an all other things being equal" decision.
