General - Cabinet Saw 350-1
General Canadian-made cabinet saw is a solid workhorse.
Jun 01, 1999
This Canadian-made saw had a solid overall feel and good fit and finish. The extension wings were attached at the factory and shimmed perfectly level, saving us the work. However, the dust-collection system was ill designed, and there was no internal ramp to the dust port, which sat about a foot above the floor.
For a full review on this saw, read the June 1999 article from Fine Woodworking magazine, available on the Fine Woodworking Network.

Grizzly G0495X Industrial Helical Cutterhead 8-in. Jointer
Regardless of the board’s grain, this jointer produced excellent results. Its fence was totally flat, worked smoothly, and locked well, staying in place even after jointing multiple edges. Getting the fence to 90° was very easy, but the 90° stop was a little tricky to set and the fence did not go back to square when using it. For those who would use it, there is also a digital depth-of-cut scale.
