The Delta Cabinet Saw…. Any serious woodworker recognizes that the most important tool in the workshop is a good heavy duty table saw. There are many good table saws on the market that will perform admirably in the home shop, but for me, the Cabinet Table Saw is the Cadillac of them all and the Delta Cabinet Saw also known as the Unisaw is the best.

The Delta cabinet saw is a workhorse. It is made to run all day long and is the best overall choice for the hobbyist or small shop owner. While more expensive than portable, contractor, and hybrid table saws, the cabinet saw has plenty of advantages.

The motors in these saws have plenty of power for just about any job in the shop. They are typically equipped with a 3 to 5 horsepower motor which will provide enough power to handle any wood up to the full cutting depth of about 3 1/8 inches.

The Delta Cabinet saw is built around a stout main frame and enclosed cabinet base. The trunnion assembly is heavy duty and mounted to the frame separately from the table top. This makes adjusting the alignment of the blade and miter slots very easy and convenient.

The best of the cabinet saws are heavy with cast iron or steel table tops. This extra weight means less vibration and more rigid blade mounting resulting in smoother cuts.
