The Unisaw made the difference and proved to me not only its value but its place among the top table saws on the market. This project turned out absolutely perfect with amazingly tight joinery and beautiful lines. While I’ve built projects like this in the past, they always seem to have “little” adjustments here and there due to my precision (or lack thereof). Like a conveniently located push-button arbor lock for quick, easy blade changes. The legendary UNISAW has been redesigned from the ground up and is loaded with industry firsts. Get ready for something radically different. The precision of the Unisaw stood out from the onset. 3-HP Motor 10' UNISAW with 52' BIESEMEYER Fence System. Obviously, the Unisaw was a major player in the project from ripping materials down to cutting tenons and dados. The project included building cabinet boxes, drawers, doors, shelving and a wood countertop. I fabricated a large 10 foot wide by 8 foot tall built-in entertainment cabinet. Perhaps, one of my greatest challenges came recently, as I set out to tackle a large cabinet project. Delta Unisaw with Biesemeyer Fence Up-front Controlsīy this point you’ve got to be thinking to yourself, “This all sounds great, but how does the darn thing perform?!” Well, this story actually started a year ago, and over that time it has performed flawlessly.
It’s certainly very impressive, especially once you’ve seen it in person and realize how smooth it operates while still delivering substantial power. If you place a nickel on edge on the table top it will not fall over once the motor is started or is running. In fact, the saw is so smooth that it easily passes the “nickel” test. If you’re running a strictly commercial operation, you can also order a 5 HP three phase motor from Baldor.Ĭombined, these three components create a machine that sings when it’s fired up. The latter is from Marathon Motors and is built in Wisconsin. On the power side of the equation there are two primary options for the Unisaw: the standard 3 HP motor and an optional 5 HP motor. The worker was using feeler gauges as small as 0.001 inches. During final assembly, I watched with amazement as the worker tested and re-tested the orientation of the blade to the saw assembly. The Unisaw focuses on both of these via three key components, including: American Marathon Motors in 3 HP or 5 HP models, an American-made single-cast trunnion system (which greatly reduces vibrations), and the precision ground cast-iron table top.Īccuracy begins on the assembly line, and that’s where I was very impressed by the attention to detail that was given in calibrating the blade alignment. The top two characteristics that come to my mind when choosing a table saw are accuracy and power. should be a high selling point for many users. The fact that the Unisaw is built here in the U.S. I hope the folks at Delta can expand the factory to allow them to make more of their products here in the United States. Watching a first class piece of machinery like the Unisaw being built by Americans for Americans in a factory in South Carolina was a great experience. As the pieces moved around the building they were fabricated and finally powder coated before hitting the assembly line. Early in the morning the metal used to build the supporting cabinet was bent and cut from massive sheets of steel. While I was visiting the plant in South Carolina, I got to follow my actual saw as it was built from scratch. The frame and final saw assembly is done in South Carolina before they are shipped all over the world. The Unisaw is over 90% US-made, including motors and cast pieces manufactured in Wisconsin.
