SawStop Professional Cabinet Saw 3HP (PCS31230-TGP236, 36" T-Glide)Professional

This is the saw for woodworkers who want the safety brake and are willing to pay for it. It fits serious hobbyists and pros running a 240V shop who want a cabinet saw that arrives well tuned and stays accurate. If finger safety is high on your list, this is the obvious pick.

• The skin-sensing brake works as promised and gives real peace of mind
• Fence and blade alignment are quick to set and hold their tune
• The T-Glide fence slides smoothly and locks square every time
• Three horsepower rips hardwood without bogging down

• The overarm dust collection could be better and many owners rig up their own fix
• The blade guards block your view of the cut
• Saws can arrive slightly out of alignment after shipping
• You pay to replace a brake cartridge if it fires, including on wet or metallic stock

Takes any standard 10-inch blade and an 8-inch dado stack up to 29/32 inch with the separate dado brake cartridge and insert. Works with SawStop overarm dust collection, integrated router tables, outfeed tables, and a mobile base, and the 36 inch rails can be swapped for a 52 inch setup.
