Crosscut king, October 5, 2009
This review is from: DELTA 33-400 14-Inch 3 Horsepower Radial Arm Saw, 230-Volt 1 phase (Tools & Home Improvement)
I have owned this saw for 6 months now and am quite pleased with it. I use it in my small cabinet shop to crosscut prefinished panels and doors. Bought it for the 30" crosscut ability. Saw is very accurate and is adjusted to have zero play in column and turret index stops. Industrial machine with power to spare. All parts are accurately machined and ground.
It is the third Radial arm saw I have owned, from Craftsman 10", to Delta 2hp 12". Found both prior to be underpowered and lacked large crosscut ability. I do not rip on this saw. One positive thing with this saw verses my past saws is that electromagnet brake works very well, stopping large blade in 5-10 seconds - much faster than others.
One negative is that long turret is in the way of your shoulder so it forces you to stand on one side or other of machine while in use. Also if on left side hard to hit power button. Won't be without this saw in my shop.
