All Saws are not created equal. They all make straight cuts. But some kinds are definitely superior to others depending on what kind of wood you have and what you want to-do with that wood. For instance, a table saw will be used foremost to cut lumber. The sliding table saw will process wood used for framing new construction. It is different than a saw used typically for cutting complex scroll jobs. Saws come in table or bench top models, but the distinction is in the handle, the blades, and the fencing that wraps around the table saw.
Anatomy of a Table Saw
Let's look at the table. This stage or cutting plane can come in several different dimensions. For larger workspaces, a model that sits on the floor will provide the surface area required for tremendous control in the cutting long straight lines. A smaller table will permit the saw to move into smaller shops and be more portable.
Miter Saw Blade
A look at the handle or arm of the saw determines the kind of cutting you can make. Saws that tilt permit miter cutting and other angling. This will allow the work to be done for trims, moldings and other decorative treatments.
The cutting edge in a table saw is exchangeable. Some blades will be course while other will be fine. The best blade depends upon the wood or other material to be cut. A ceramic tile blade is used with water. This kind of blade will often be used with a water drip to cut through brick or stone. There are saw blade designed for cutting tile and metal.
The fence is in the lead position. A secure fence is essential and will keep wood in place so that less manual effort is necessary to manage the cut. The guide may be marked or have even engraved for different angles removing a lot of the estimating from the actual cutting when trying for a perfect angle.
The motor is the part that's not seen. It's situated underneath beneath the plane. It is however extremely important. It provides the horsepower to cut foot after foot of material and never ware out the drive.
So, how do you identify which of these saws are good? How do you know which will provide safe, high value cuts for decades to come? These reviews about saws are often commissioned and produced by industry journals for prospective buyers. Nevertheless, the best appraisals are the spontaneous ones. Blogs and other online forums can provide appraisal and real world experiences from people just like you - those who are looking for good value.
Reading and contributing your own appraisal to these Internet round-tables helps force the manufactures to stay on their toes. They realize that craftsmen want to know the real truth concerning how well a saw like this will work to the rigors of limitless woodworking projects.
To recap a good quality table saw consists of a tough motor, dependable guide fence, flexibility in interchanging blades, and a sturdy work surface. Merge those with the name of a trustworthy company who has been evaluation by your own peers, and you are certain to choose a champion when you select a table saw.
