Reviews:
If you've always wanted to own Powermatic's model 66 table saw,
but you've held off because of the space it demands, then take a
close look at Powermatic's Special Edition 66, built with the home
workshop in mind. This is a piece of shop equipment that makes a
toolhound's heart beat faster. The eye-catching high-grade cast-iron
top is machine-polished to a mirror finish. The saw's table--impressively
thick and durable--has both a cast-iron wing extension and a laminated
extension (total surface: 28 by 53-3/4 inches). With one of the
heaviest cast-iron trunnions on any 10-inch saw on the market, the
model 66 virtually snuffs out vibration. The double drive-belt system--hooked
up to the burly 3-horsepower motor--delivers pretty astonishing
power. A C-flange mount takes the weight of the motor, so the blade
cranks up or down easily without the extra weight. The saw's hand
wheels are also made of cast iron and have excellent clearance.
The heart of any table saw, arguably, is the fence--and Powermatic's
Special Edition 66 sports the award-winning Accu-Fence, a system
that uses only two moving parts to create easy-gliding, precision,
no-budge fence action. The left-tilting blade tilts away from the
fence, which helps prevent kickback and binding of the stock, making
for smoother cuts. The two-sided blade guards work independently
of each other, so the blade is always covered. The guards also swing
totally out of the way to make blade changes easy. Behind the blade,
there are antikickback pawls for added safety. The saw's base has
a clean-out door, allowing you easy access to the saw body and making
cleanup a snap--no reaching around the saw components or having
to remove the motor cover. You'll also receive a load of extras,
including a dado insert, a motor cover, and an extension table and
legs. Admittedly, this isn't a cheap saw; without a doubt, however,
it is an excellent one that would make a great addition to any shop.
As with almost everything, you get what you pay for--in the case
of Powermatic's Special Edition 66, you get a fantastic piece of
equipment your friends will envy.
