I have been thinking for a while to get setup with one of these.
One showed up used on the market so I drove out to take a look.
Industrial 5 hp 52”
Shame the not much used saw looked like it had been moved a few times by idiots and was fairly beat up as well as rusty etc.
The thing that got me though was when I showed up the seller was in a panic call to Sawstop trying to find out why the saw was faulting out and would not start.
He gets the a recording and drops the call while rummaging in the motor box which turns on the saw while he was still hands in the box crawling under the saw.... muttering something about “sawdust”.
Sooooo..
What’s the deal?
It would be a royal PITA to have a saw in a commercial shop on the fritz with gremlins.
BUT... I am still interested in getting one of these in the shop.
Anyone running one?
Thanks
