Jet enters the miter saw market
So i found this inadvertently. It really looks a lot like the crapsman slider.

I dunno if any of you have used the triton router b4 but heres something else i ran into

theyre router is pretty ground breaking so i wonder if this thing is of comparable quality...cuz it is sure inexpensive.
Can the aussies make decent power tools?

Wow, good eye John. Jet makes a nice looking table saw & band saw, but they kinda look like other brands too.

I had a boss that had a jet shop saw, and it was less powerful than most any half decent jobsite saw.
