Solid. Well made. Highly recommended. Looks good. Easy to use. Comfortable and fast to use.
First of all, what a tool. I set it up in about an hour or so and installed a set of wheels (get the wheels this saw weighs over 150 lbs. The first one got damaged in delivery. I called Milwaukee CPO here in California and they assured me the new saw would be on it's way ASAP and the old one would be picked up.
I also have the extensions which I discovered I needed with 8' panels to stay accurate. and moves like a load bearing wall.). Too easy. I know there are less expensive ones (and plenty of more expensive ones) out there but it is a Milwaukee with a Milwaukee Saw Motor. I wish I had had one earlier. This is my 2nd panel saw from Milwaukee.
I had a project involving t-111 and oak plywood (brooder boxes) and went right to work. A luxury for a small shop but a nice tool.Milwaukee 6480-20 15 Amp 8-Inch Complete Panel Saw System with 50-Inch Crosscut It was the Thursday before Good Friday and no one was around back east where the saw originated. It came about 10 days later in great shape.
I wasn't sure I needed it, but I wouldn't give it up now for anything. Like all Milwaukee tools, this saw is simply the best. That being said though, it is very durable. The only negative is that if you have it delivered, I recommend that you have at least two people to move it, it is pretty heavy. It is as accurate as you are, and doesn't even take up as much space as one would think. For anyone who has ever cut a 4x8 sheet of plywood on a table saw, you NEED to get one of these.
That's enough for me. When you need a panel saw, nothing else will do, and though you can have sheet goods cut at the lumber yard, doing it in your own shop is a lot more convenient. This panel saw, according to my son, whose saw it is, is convenient and precise, more square than the original sheet goods, he says.
