A couple of you might remember me asking last year about getting back into WoodWorking. Well, .......... I did not buy the BT3100. I bought the Craftsman Zipcode saw........22114. Well, life got in the way and It ended up sitting in the crate until a few weeks back and I finally put it together. The size of the saw took up WAY too much space and it was finally carted away by a new HAPPY owner. I gave him a sweet deal on it.
Went to the BORG and put the money down for the BT3100 yesterday.
The box it was in, was kind of beat up and torn, but it was the last one. I told the manager that I would check it out before assembly and if there was any damage, I would make sure it was still packed right before I brought it back. He was very supportive about everything and told me that he would have a saw delivered to the store from another store if it was.
Luckily for me, every thing was in its place and well packed. I assembled the saw, and was taking mental notes of the quality as I went along. I was impressed by the engineering that went into this machine,and the finish is very good!
This morning, I'm going back out to the garage to assemble a mobile base for it, and go through all the adjustments on the saw.
My impressions so far,.... tell me this is a very nice machine for the $249.00 that I paid for it.
