Table Saws
Circular saws are fine for carpentry but when you need to make accurate cuts for furniture and cabinet projects you'll need a table saw. Table saws are by far the most popular saws in the workshop. The biggest blade diameter generally available is 10 inches although delta woodworking has 14 inch and 16 inch models available for the industrial user.
The delta woodworking lineup includes saws for the novice to intermediate home shop user (marketed under the delta ShopMaster brand) and heavy-duty units (marketed as the delta Industrial line).
The distinguishing features of the delta Industrial units are more powerful motors, bigger standard tables and wider tables on some models to facilitate cutting wide materials. A variety of fences are also available. Furthermore, the industrial models are divided into Contractor and Cabinet designs.
The contractor saws use an open leg design and are made to be reasonably easy to take to the jobsite and thence to be moved around the work area as needed.
The cabinet saws have enclosed bases with built in sawdust collecting ports. Cabinet saws are very heavy units that are used in a dedicated shop environment. They can be moved on casters but are too weighty to be easily taken offsite.
The delta ShopMaster series is ideal for the home user. They are designed to operate on standard household current. These models are designated as table saws and bench saws.
The table saws are much like the contractor style in layout, generally used in the workshop, while the bench saws are quite light in weight so they can be placed on the workbench as needed yet can moved out of the way when not in use. The bench saws are easy to take to where a job is underway as in interior remodeling or used in the yard when doing outdoor projects.
