General table saw

[pirate71]

I found this General table saw on CL and was wondering if anyone had opinions about it. I am going to look at it tomorrow and if it is the 350, it looks like a good upgrade to my Delta 1.5HP/unifence.

Looks like an amazing deal. General makes good tools. You have me to thank for this (because I just placed my order for a new Griz G0691... and of course the good deals start flowing ).

I have the 5hp big brother to this one.And one thing about General...top quality machines.That's a decent price and that fence is great.
The only negative I can see is it looks like it's a right tilt blade.That's just not my preference,but it is completely workable.Plenty of right tilts out there and people are fine with them...just not my thing.
Other than that it looks like a decent deal.

I would say that it is a very nice upgrade.

He just sent me a email and it is the 350. I don't really have any problems with the power of my current 1.5HP delta. There are times when I wish I had more than a 30 inch fence. This one reminds me the catchy phrase that BAS has on his emails - "I don't need it, I just want it!!"
