He made beautiful things with that saw. The Powermatic is what does it for me. The entire package was bound to a wooden palette. It doesn't slow down under very heavy loads. Easy to transport from place to place.

Powermatic PM1000 Final Thoughts
"Everything fit perfectly."
Took me 5 times longer than suggested. It's durable plastic, but still plastic. The motor has more than enough power for my needs. Overall its an ok saw for what it is. Once finished, it is an awesome saw.
