Suitable table saw for box making

mercredi 1 avril 2015

I seem to be making more and more mitred edge boxes these days and have for a while considered stepping up to a proper table saw, currently I have a Triton Workcentre 2000. I have built jigs that have allowed me to get the same result as a table saw but am ready to buy a table saw. It would be handy to use a dado blade so that I can make box joints and many times an angled blade would have come in handy. Looking at some options there are the smaller table saws that Bunnies sell as well as the Carbatec Contractor Saw at just under $1000 and then it steps up to the Jet at almost $1900. Now given that I tend to use the saw for boxes mainly rather than furniture these days what are others using? I do have to say that I'd prefer the quieter saws ie ones with induction motors over the noisier universal motors. Accuracy is important as you want your mitres to be pretty spot on but does that require spending a lot more. I've gotten by with hand tools and the Triton for years but I think I'd benefit from a proper table saw.
