IMO probably the best constructor table saw out there for any woodworker.

• Rack and pinion fence system, front and rear fence lock and large, clear scales combine to give an extremely accurate and easy-to-use saw
• Fence system provides 825mm of rip capacity in a portable design for cutting large sheet materials to size
• Quick bevel lock with large scale for easy, accurate adjustments
• Cast table top design ensures accuracy and precision
• 26.5 kg unit weight and optimised footprint make this the most portable saw in its class

  I've had one of these for a few years and find it great. I bought it with the rolling stand which makes it a lot easier to move about and store.

  It's not cheap but if you don't have room to leave the saw set up all the time, this is useful:

    Yep the rolling stand is very useful but its a pity you can't use it while the legs are down to reposition the saw around the shop or site. I'm planning on adding a router table to mine which can use the saw's fence. There are a few youtube videos of how this can be done.
    Dewalt bundle the saw with the rolling stand in the states for a couple of hundred extra but unfortunately no such option available here.

      I recently did this with mine by repurposing an old 80’s Ryobi router, and it works well. Have wanted to get this rolling stand for a while, but looks like the handle may get in the way of the under mounted router.

  This has really come down in price in the last couple of years. Was RRP $1299 when I bought it.

  When these got really expensive I ended up getting the Hikoki C10rj instead. Comes with an attached folding wheely stand, cuts well, happy with it.

  I feel like i have watched too much SawStop table saw that i am too afraid to buy anything without that safety. I am only a hobbyist
  and DIY'er so i value my finger more than the small projects. I want to hear some options from people who have used this Dewalt saw?

    I know I've seen a cheap-ish SawStop somewhere…

      Do you like your sawstop? I am thinking I will buy one when they do 20% store credit.

    Take proper precautions, never hurry and always use PPE even for a single cut. Always use the riving knife and blade guard when possible. Use a push stick and invest in a microjig gripper.
    Yes its a dangerous tool which can remove your fingers in an instant of inattention but if you're vigilant and cautious every time you use it I believe its a minimal risk.

    You have to respect a table saw - they can genuinely do damage, and many more risks than just chopping off your fingers. They can easily fire an off-cut back at you with enough speed to do genuine damage (which a SawStop can't do anything about). The reason is that a table saw rotates towards you, not away from you.

    The biggest danger, IMO, is if you're not going to use one regularly - you lose the safety instinct and it's easy to become nervous and make mistakes in the process of trying to do the safe / right thing.

    My opinion is that if you're a beginning woodworker, or if you don't actually know whether you need a table saw or not, you're better off getting a circular saw instead. You should spend the time to learn to use that "properly" first - yes, you'll need to be a bit more patient, often building jigs or clamping down scrap pieces of wood as a guide, but since you're moving the saw through the material as opposed to the material through the saw, it's much less likely to shoot projectiles back at you or take your fingers off (given they'll be nowhere near the blade).

    For more repeatable cuts, you could then get a mitre saw, which would complement the circular saw very well.

      This is an awesome table saw. I have had this for a couple of years. Great cutting depth & really wide cuts. Supports dado blades as well. Easy to use, good quality, powerful.

      I started out with an Ozito table saw. I built a table around the ozito saw and it worked beautifully for quite a few years. Obviously the convenience of the rack and pinion system far surpasses having to measure and clamp a stop to the table.

      But to be honest I think I would prefer a really good bandsaw. I ended up with a couple of hundred kilos of douglas fir timbers which I made into boards. I used my thickness planer (ozito) and the dewalt table to do this. The cutting of the douglas fir on the dewalt was hard work.

      A circular saw is super useful and with some good cutting guides can do a great job, but the depth of cut is an issue. You can make some great guides out of aluminium. (square cut guide and also a sled guide with 2 angles)

  Did the price go back up 1099? I was about to head off to my nearest Bunnings but I’m unsure if I’ll still be able to claim the discounted price.

    Shows $1099 for me as well but it's $929 with PowerPass.

  If you can live with a 210mm table saw then this is the pick…
