jet708315btc.jpegIf you need a good, portable table saw that won't break the bank, the JET 708315BTC is a good option. The JET 708315BTC is a 15-amp table saw that weighs 52 pounds and a has surprising rip capacity of 24-1/2 inches.

The JET 708315BTC also features a Smooth Speed™ Belt Drive Transmission with Poly-V belt as opposed to having a direct-drive motor. What this does is eliminate vibrations to the blade and extend life of motor which also provides quieter operation and a better transfer of power.

Dorian Gluckman from JLConline.com did a hands-on review of the JET 708314BTC and said: 

"It comes assembled from the factory. I discovered quickly that checking the fasteners is a good idea — many were loose on my tool. Most of the adjustments for truing the saw are straightforward, but a few require getting to fasteners that are only barely accessible. As a result, the process took me more than an hour. Happily, once the tool was dialed in, it stayed that way. For general carpentry and nonprecision work, I consider the Jet’s low price, minimal vibration, and excellent portability big pluses."

The JET 708315BTC table saw rips up to 24-1/2 inches wide with a Rapid Wing Extension that expands your work surface up to 41" (with single extension) or 55" (with two extensions) for additional support. Weighting 52 pounds with Contoured Side Handles that allow for easy lifting, the JET 708315BTC is easily portable to most jobsites.

Other features of the JET 708315BTC include a dust collection adaptor port that connects either a 2-1/2" shop vacuum or a 4" dust collection system (located on the underbelly of the machine), precision machined miter slots, a dual function hand wheel and rear Outfeed support that also converts to a left side extension.

The JET708315 has on-board storage for convenient storage of the power cord, rip fence, miter gauge, saw blade and wrenches and is available at Toolking.com.
