table saw.....

Hello all,
I'm lookin' for one of the 4" table saws like Dremel used to make..
Need location and have you used one how did you like it, do you still use it and does it make accurate cuts.... Any other info sure would be helpful..Thanks Guy's and Girls
Can you still get needed parts (blades and such)

Blades and belts are available still. (Check Micro Mark for blades) The motors are the same as used on some sewing machines, so, yes, these, too, are available. They work good.

If you are wanting one, however, why not post in the "Classifieds" with a heading of "Wanted, table saw" or some such. Then put in the body of the text what exactly you are looking for.

Sears sold those saws under the Craftsman name also.

There is a slightly smaller one sold by MicroMark www.micromark.com

And they make a bigger, better, more expensive one as well. Jarvis also makes one that uses the same size blade as the Dremel. It is a little smaller and direct drive, but US made and the price is right.

Got mine on Ebay. Dremel was spelled wrong in the header and nobody else found it or bid on it.

Woodcraft www.woodcraft.com sells a small table saw made by Proxxon model 38 070.
The latest Woodcraft catalog came a couple of days ago & ran accross this saw. Anyone ever use one of these saws?

Looks like a great little saw but for that kind of money one can buy the best table saw ever produced for the home shop. The Ryobi BT-3100.. I have it's predecessor the BT-3000, it will cut small stuff with a zero clearance throat plate and is the most accurate saw on the market for under a grand. Available at Home Depot for aprox. $300.00

I also have the BT Ryobi saw. It makes fine cuts and looks like a laser did the job. Great saw!

Yep, when I bought mine they were around $600.00 and worth every penny, now with the new model selling for less than $300.00 it's a steal.

I have a table saw that works pretty good. Not as good as the Ryobi. But for model aircraft stuff, nothing can beat the 1963 DeWalt radial arm saw. Beautiful, smooth cuts of any angle on anything 17" or less in length. Wouldn't own it if I had to pay fair market value, however.

Proxxon saw i s a really good unit I have one annd love it, my opinion they are much better than the dremel
I also have 2 of them in stock to sell
They are $189.00 plus shipping
regards

There is few over on *bay now.

Folks, I sure do appreciate all the quick replys, and the good information.
As usual this forum offers the best help...
Lenoard you really have a great forum...

Proxxon also makes another saw, referred to as a table mounted circular saw. Fair amount cheaper than the saw shown, but looks to be quite good for model airplane stuff.

Randy, have you used the cheaper saw? How is it compared to the tilting arbor saw? Was thinking of getting one (not sure which, thus the question) for my son.
