I've since sold the Ridgid. The Dewalt is just better and feels beefier imo. I move my saw from truck to truck and job to job. After 10 yrs or so my old Dewalt got worn out and wasn't smooth anymore...so I just bought a new one, I love it that much.
I’ve had the same Dewalt 10” table saw with no stand on my cut table for like 16 years , new brushes and blades etc. This saw is absolutely awesome because of the rack and pinion fence, it’s the only one like it . I do interior’s for a custom home builder and this saw will handle it. I am Milwaukee guy but this table saw is excellent ! Just buy a Milwaukee Track Saw and you will need nothing else.
Hey I just picked up the Ridgid 4550 10 inch jobsite saw. It has a rack and pinion fence and will accept a dado and will cut a 4x4 in one pass. Extends right to 32.5 inches. I have the DeWalt 745 which is a GREAT saw, but, no dado, and I had to mod it just to get it to 24 inches right. You should take a look at the Ridgid, especially since they are on a wicked sale if you pick up in store. Great review!
I think if you’re ripping 4x4’s we’re valuing different things. But as someone who makes furniture, the rack and pinion fence, and the ability to put a dado stack in the dewalt sold me on it.
Great review. Honestly and just the facts. Appreciate you taking the time. I am up in the air over these two. You're helped me A LOT. Thank you.

@@dougfowler6898 $279 sale from $529...that IS a crazy sale!! Funny that the cheaper saw got the better system.
@@rednecktech82 brother I got if for an additional 10% off that price. It’s crazy

Ridgid also accepts up to 3/4" dado. Overall I do prefer the Dewalt so far myself...just beefier setup.
You use a jobsite table saw for furniture?
I hear you all and I think I'll be fixing my Dewalt...in my defense I got the Ridgid brand new in the box for $170 from an auction 😏.
For $170 I would be running that Rigid as well.
Rack and pinion is superior.
@@atillakandemir6439 yeah that's what it's called!...the words eluded me during recording lol
