The JTAS-10 comes in both a left-lilt and a more standard right-tilt model. The price starts at about Si .400.00 for a reasonably equipped model. j "The table is highly polished and the powder coat paint is reported to be 30 times harder than regular paints. 1 had no real problems assembling the saw, which was my first indication that il was well-made," said Charles, adding "In fact, I'd have a hard time finding a real gripe with this unit." But Does It Cut Wood All in all. Charles said. "JETs JTAS-10 is a mechanically superior table saw." Of course, features are one thing, but the real question is how does the saw preform over time, with day to day use. And according to Charles, the answer is "very well indeed." "Over a year of woodworking, I really put the saw through its paces. I ran dado cuts in particle board, hardwood and MDF: no problem. Of course, that's exactly what you would expect for a saw that costs about $1,400! I also ripped and crosscut a variety of materials, and the saw worked like a champ," Charles reported after his testing was complete. Recommendation Cabinet saws are not for everyone. Not all of us have the space for them — or mavbe even the skill level to make the best use of their considerable heft and quality. On a practical level, the price may simply be a non-starter for many. But as a result of an entire year's worth of bread and butter woodworking (under a fairly critical eye), we are happy to pronounce the JTAS-10 a real woodworking value. And. for all the reasons noted by our tool tester. Charles Self, we are pleased to present JET Equipment and Tools with our "Tools that Endure" award._/' 0 CNC under 55,000 -ShopBotL.
