ReviewTwo precision-ground, cast-iron wings set this saw apart from average contractor-style saws with steel wings. Heavy-duty, cast-iron trunions support the sealed, ball-bearing blade-arbor housing for a smooth performance with minimal vibration. JET also uses totally enclosed, fan-cooled motors that prevent overheating and dust infiltration and result in longer motor life and less risk of a fire hazard than an open-motor housing. The stand is made of a tougher-gauge metal and has a 4-inch dust port for easy connection to a dust collector. Another user-friendly feature is the quick-connect electrical plug right on the saw that lets you change blades without having to search out the wall socket every time. The on/off switch is on the top of the saw for easy access, and the saw's durable, powder-coated finish (instead of paint) will make a proud owner of every user--from the beginner who wants to learn with confidence to the seasoned pro who doesn't have space for a full-size cabinet saw. This model includes a 30-inch Homeshop XCATA Fence II. --Nancy Gleason
