I currently have a Ridgid TS3650 that I bought used about 5 years ago. It was not in the best of shape but I was able to clean up the top and get it running pretty well. I was thinking about purchasing a new table saw. I was looking at the new version Ridgid R4512, The Delta 36-725, but while these would be newer and have a riving knife, My current saw has never had a blade guard and I have used different splinter devices since I have had it, it is pretty much the same saw. So I started looking at the Delta 36-5100 or the Grizzly G0715P or ShopFox W1824. One thing I need to be able to do is move the saw around since I use it in the garage and when not in use needs to be pushed out of the way. So that does make the delta kind of leading the group.
I guess just trying to figure out if I should buy a new saw or if I should just keep my current and do a major maintenance and see what parts need to be replaced. I would really like the riving knife and blade guard, and I would like a better fence system. I could replace that on my current but at the cost to try and reto I fit the current saw, and I would not be able to get a riving knife on my current, would it be better to get a new saw and sell this one.
