Re: Benchtop Tablesaws: We Want Your Feedback

I recently purchased a Ridgid R4510 contractor's saw on a cart. I needed a smaller saw as I am terribly limited on space. Suffice to say, this thing was true and square to .005 right out of the box. Unbelievable. Bought a machinist's square to verify perpendicular. I never trust stops. Bought a zero clearance insert. First test cuts and the fence indicator was spot on as well as the 90 degree cut. The only 2 problem areas are lack of infeed space and the miter gage was useless. All contractor's saws have smaller tables so I already was ready for that. I added the Incra 1000HD miter gage and the Incra Miter Express and that solved the miter issue. And, of course, I added a better blade. The only thing I haven't tried is a dado stack. But, as for all other features, I'm completely happy with my choice. It is a quite remarkable machine.
