Default Powermatic 64 Contractor Saw

I purchased my Powermatic saw about two years ago at the Houston woodworking show and love it.
My saw also came with a extension table with a router lift.
Have cut miles of wood on this saw and have never had any problems cutting anything I ran through it.
The saw is very heavy with a good size table. It definitly not a saw you want to have to move around alot.
It has a strong motor and fairly quite operation.
I recommend this saw to anyone who wants a top notch shop workhorse.

I absolutely agree with woodman. I have had mine for almost a year now and though i haven't yet put it through any really significant power trial it has been close and performed wonderfully.

Ditto kiddos...had mine for about six years and its been put to some heavy duty use. When I ordered it I took the 5HP motor option. Wasn't all that much more money and well worth it if yer about to score one.
I also have the wheel stand which also wasn't very expensive and I can roll it around pretty easily when I really need to.
