The Bosch table saw works, especially since I only paid $426 out the door, but the fence does leave something to be desired. Both cost thousands of money pieces though. The CMS though also makes an awesome router table, which scores it major points.

This is great for giving the lungs a break, as they tend to take a beating in this line of work. The DWE7491RS features a 2- 1/2 inch dust port at the back and another 1- 1/2 inch port on top of the blade. It can easily handle cross-cutting 1X material used for dados, rabbets, mortise, and tenons.ĭust is another common problem that we all hate when doing some woodworking. That should be good for some pretty big jobs, and you can rest easy because this saw has a rail extension to stop the board from breaking or tipping over the saw, which would be a disaster.Īnother noteworthy feature of the DWE7491RS is the cross-cutting capability. The DWE7491RS has a 32- 1/2 inch rip capacity! Ripping large boards on this unit is like nothing else. The cover is a great addition if kids are anywhere nearby. To turn the DWE7491RS back on, you have to press the green “on” button that is covered by a safety flip cover. The saw will shut off automatically and not come back on when the power comes back. For example, someone kicks out the extension cord on the job site, or there’s a power outage. Regarding safety, the DWE7491RS has a remarkable power loss reset feature. It can even be locked and unlocked with just one hand to make any necessary adjustments! You don’t have to worry about that with this saw as it has to have the sturdiest one on the market. We all know it’s dangerous to have a crappy pinion fence. One highlight of this table saw is the quality rack and pinion fence. Then when finished, it can be picked up and chucked in the back of the pickup. It only weighs 110 pounds, too, so it can be rolled quite easily from different parts of the job site. PortabilityĪre you a contractor on the move? If so, you will like that the DWE7491RS can be transported around with the rolling stand. If at a 45-degree angle, it can make cuts at 2-1/4 inches. If cutting at a 90-degree angle, the DWE 7491RS can cut 3-1/8 inches. The powerful 15 amp motor, built with quality parts, can slice through wood like butter.

This saw comes in at 26 x 22 inches making it a good size for most jobs.
