    JET ProSHOP TS / Freud Premier Fusion 40T 10"

    So I made my decision. Many of you helped me through the choice. Finally I am running my brand new JET ProSHOP 10" Hybrid table saw with the 40T Freud Premier Fusion blade. All I can say is "WOW!"

    The all cast-iron top is amazing and the fence is top notch. This blade is so perfectly sharp, the end grain of red oak comes out glossy smooth after a basic cross-cut. I ripped some 3/4" baltic birch ply today for the new mobile base and it cut through like butter. No tear out, finish quality edges. This is an amazing set up. I can't believe the difference from my trusty BT3100. I never thought I would look at my BT3 like I do now. I feel bad.

          Congrats!
          I reviewd the JET ProShop saw a while ago and really liked it. It is well made and as you are finding out, nice to use, in addition to accurate. Seems like JET finally took the hybrid idea to the right level.
          Have fun!

                  Yes Tom, Of course I'm aware of your review. If you recall, it was your review that made me finalize my decision on that table saw.

                  Thanks again for the thourough coverage, pictures and video. I'm sure your friend is still cutting away with that saw now. He's doing all of the cabinets in his new build, right?

                          Sorry, I didn't connect the scfreen name with an email. I have heard from several guys who bought that saw now and all like it.
                          I believe the guy who bought my ProShop is done with the kitchen rebuild and is contemplating stripping the shop and re-doing that now. He was over here last night looking for bathroom vanity ideas. I suspect that is another of the projects he promised as justification for buying a new saw.
