Hi guys.
There is a special offer at a hardware store for a table saw.
Here are the technical specs.
Table size: 22.44" x 17.3"
Saw disc diameter 9.84"
Depth of cut at 90º 2.87"
Depth of cut at 45º 2.48"
Power: 1800W.
Initial price: 219€ (about 306$ actual xchange rate) Sale price only for this month 99€ ( about 138$)
Brand "Herkules" problably doesn't say anything to you but neither to me.
I believe it is one of those secondary or tertiary "cheapo" brands
Table top is aluminium profile (not cast).
My question is: Is it worth buying it? I have a pretty good band saw, would this table saw be of any help at all? Or should I save my money and buy a better or more professional one when I can?
Are the prices stated similar to US?
Sorry no pics until I can scan the leaflet. When it comes to buying tools I'm always stuck with this dilemma.
Any suggestion will be appreciated, thanks.
