Getting ready to pull the trigger on a SawStop cabinet saw. Anyone who has bought one before able to share their experience what the deliver lead time was?

There are a couple of us. I was completely impressed with my order.
I live in Texas with an 8.25% sales tax, so I ordered mine through highland woodworking in Georgia to get around paying that. Ordered on a Monday, shipped on a Wednesday, arrived at the local freight hub on Friday, and was in my garage the following Monday. Zero damage and seamless transaction.

Another person on this bowl had some minor damage to a rail and he said that customer service was very accommodating and sent a replacement without any hassle.

I think their annual “sale” is coming up any day now, no? Free PCS mobile base or overarm dust collection setup?

Yep, I’m the one that had some minor damage to a rail. Called sawstop and had a free replacement two days later. I still have the old rail sitting around. I’m not sure what I’m going to do about it.

The annual sale has been called off this year because they can’t keep up with current demands and orders.

I’d recommend at minimum to get the 36” fence and the ICS base with conversion kit (makes it compatible with the PCS base).

Call around to as many vendors in your area and surrounding states, you might find one with some in stock. That’s the quickest way to get a saw.

Lastly, there is a sawstop owners Facebook group i highly recommend joining. Lots of good info and insights from purchasing advise to assembly and tips and tricks.

They didn’t make an official announcement, but it’s typically done in March and people who work there have said it’s not happening this year.

Also most current lead times if the vendor doesn’t have any in stock is a 4-6 weeks, sometimes more. That’s why it’s helpful to call around.

Summer intern at BCG. I've been told by a few people that you need to spend your first few cases "earning your stripes" to gain staffing optionality or be servile/loyal to a pyramid to gain access to the cooler case work within that PA. It's seemed particularly emphasized at times.

Is this the standard at McK? I'm trying to guage the staffing optionality and openness of McKinsey culture to direct your random walk.

PSA: Jet and Powermatic are having supply chain issues. Ordered a jet dust collector in March with an April delivery date. Woodcraft has pushed it back every month and their current best estimate is July 7th (though they are still advertising a June ship date). Just keep that in mind if you have any sense of immediacy around your purchasing needs.

Wanted to share some advice for anyone looking at track saws. I just bought the bare WEN 6.5” unit ($145.29) and paired it with the Powertec guide rail set ($119.89) and came away with a solid setup at a (comparatively) cheap price ($265).

I was considering the Makita ($585) or Dewalt ($790) setups since those are my normal go-to brands, but couldn’t stomach the cost.

Highly recommend it!

Anyone here own a saw stop PCS or a Powermatic PM2000? Ive been setting aside money in my woodworking slush fund for a good cabinet saw to replace my contractor saw, and I’m intrigued by the SS’s hotdog sensing technology. Eager to hear opinions from anyone who owns one of the two saws.

Anyone here ever built a guitar amplifier cabinet?

Using this as an excuse to pick up a big ‘ol bandsaw, biscuit joiner, moar clamps & a dust collection system! Taking a week off to build the majority of it and then will finish it up in the evenings.
