Shopsmith Table Saw

Post by notlem »

I just saw this post:

I didn't know Shopsmith made a standalone unit. I don't need another tablesaw, but it's interesting.

Yes Sawsmith 2000 I believe. I don't have a bit of need for one of them but I would still like to have one some time just to have it. :rolleyes: :)

I have so many saws now that it is a dumb decision making process every time I walk in the shop and want to cut off some silly stick. :rolleyes: I usually just look around to see which one has less crap laying on the table to move.
