Grizzly G1023RL 10" 3 HP 240V Cabinet Table SawSemi-Pro

This is the saw for a woodworker who wants full 3 HP cabinet-saw muscle and does not want to spend north of three grand to get it. It needs a 240V circuit and a spot it can stay put, so it suits a dedicated garage or basement shop. If you rip a lot of thick hardwood and want a heavy, stable machine that will outlast lighter saws, this is a lot of iron for the price.

• The 3 HP motor powers through thick hardwood without slowing
• Heavy cast-iron trunnions and table stay dialed in once you set them
• It runs quiet and smooth on the Poly-V belt
• Widely called the best value in full-size cabinet saws

• The included Shop Fox Classic fence is the weak spot and many owners swap it
• Freight shipping sometimes brings a warped insert or minor damage to sort out
• At 471 pounds you will want a second person and a mobile base to move it
• The warranty is only one year

Takes an 8-inch dado stack up to 13/16 inch with the included insert, and you can add long rails to push rip capacity to 53 inches. A Biesemeyer-style aftermarket fence is a popular upgrade over the stock Shop Fox, and a mobile base makes it rollable. It is already 240V, so no motor conversion is needed.
