My original table saw was a Craftsman contractor series.  I used it for seven years.  I spent way too much money on upgrades trying to make a "Delta wana-be" out of it.  I finally purchased a left tilt Delta Unisaw shown below.  The only thing that I added to the package was the out-feed table.  Again, it's on a mobile base so I can move it out of the way.

Using this saw has been a pleasure.  Like the Craftsman, it saws wood but so much better.  There are little things like using two wrenches to remove the blade instead of a jam stick and one wrench.  The raising and lowering is so much easier as is tilting the blade.  Since it's a cabinet saw, the dust collection is more efficient.  All in all, I am very pleased with the saw.

	It finally arrived.  After much consternation over how to get it down the walk-out stairs, we finally got it in place without damaging the saw.  I removed the cast iron wings and motor.  Now that's a motor!
	The wings are re-attached and leveled.
	Now what do we do?  :-)
	Here's Max, our dog, inspecting all the parts.  Hope he doesn't see them as a fire hydrant!
	The rails of the Beismeyer fence are now attached and leveled.
	Checking for level.
	Tweaking the fence for parallelism.  The Beismeyer is very easy to set up.  More importantly, it's rock solid and accurate.
	Routing the wiring.  I attached two duplex outlets on the right wing, one in the front and one in the back.  Now I have power to run tools, as I use the table saw for my construction platform.
	This is the out feed table.  There are two folding legs allowing it to drop down during relocation.
