A friend gave me an old Craftsman Radial Arm Saw that just scares the crap out of me. I think it's cause when I was a kid, we had one in our basement and my dad used to tell me "Don't play with that one Judy, it's very dangerous and can hurt you". This radial arm saw is like a looming, blood-sucking monster huddled on the floor in the corner of my garage just waiting to be plugged in to do it's nasty duty. I know that's really strange but I've found that there are much better options for ripping and shredding.
My friend Chip, who's a custom cabinet maker, told me to get a nice
15-amp table saw. "Get one", he said, "that has a gravity-rise wheeled
stand because those are the easiest to move and store." So - - I asked
the guys at the Toolking store what they recommended and Patrick told
me, hands down the Bosch 4000-09.
The Bosch 4000-09 is 10 inch worksite table saw with, you guessed it, a
gravity-rise wheeled stand. It has a 15-amp motor that drives the 10"
blade at speeds up to 3650 rpm. Special to the Bosch 4000-09, is that
the torque demand is monitored by a response circuitry so if the power
falls short, additional power is delivered to maintain a constant speed
under load.
The Bosch 4000-09 worksite table saw has a soft start motor that
enables a quieter start and thus a quieter work environment. It comes
with a miter gauge that fits the saw easily, and an Arbor Lock which
facilitates single wrench blade changes. The Bosch table saw has a
Fence that can be expanded up to twenty inches. This precision rip
fence has a patented technology that ensures accurate cuts.
The Bosch 4000-09 Worksite Table Saw has the largest table top in
its class - 29 inch x 21-1/2 inch and is capable of handling large
stock. The permanently attached folding gravity-rise stand can be
automatically expanded and locked to set it at the height that you want
to work. The stand is sturdy and well-built, and comes with 8 treaded
pnuematic wheels so one person can easily move it around the jobsite.
You can get the Bosch 4000-09 at Toolking for $499!
