Thread: tsc-10hb table saw vs Mj2325A

Mazi,

Don't really have any answers but I too am interested to know if the TSC-10HB will take a Dado blade - I'm thinking that the answer is yes but can someone confirm?

Hope you get your other Q's answered
Cheers.

Yes, it will definitely take a dado blade.

I think you can get a sliding table as an extra. I don't have one (sliding table) though so I could well be wrong about that.

I have no idea what a mj2325a is.

Craig,

Thanks mate although the Dado blade I was interested in comes in around $545 !!:eek: ...and I don't have the saw yet!

Cripes!

That's half of what I paid for the saw. :eek: :eek:

Who makes it? Not even CMT are that expensive.

I don't think that there is a sliding table for the TSC10HB, but I've adapted mine to take the Triton sliding extension table. Takes only a few moments to attach or remove.

So if you have the Triton sliding table don't sell it but keep it for the TSC10HB.


Peter.

I thought there was one. Have a look at the Carba-tec and Timbecon sites.

A sliding table - unless it is a really big table that will take an 8 x 4 sheet - might not be an essential optional extra.... just a thought.

TSC10HB Yes you can get a sliding table and they will take a dado set up to about 18~20mm depending on the dado set.
What 8" dado set cost's $545, I got the freud dial'a'dado set for under $450 that includes importing it from Rocklers USA.
MJ2325 cant say much more that what the stockists mention on their websites. Although they come in, a b c ab cb and g configurations... take your pick!
I've checked them out at the WWWshow and find the TSC10HB is probably a more solid saw but the MJ's still will do the job quite fine and give many years of service.
I presume being from SA its the Leda saws your looking at.

Is there any difference between the Carbatec TSC-10HB and the Timbecon TSC-10HB (other than colour)?

The 2325 saw will not take a dado blade. The arbour is not long enough. Try searching this forum for 2325 and you will find out more about it. They are a 15A machine. From memory only a single belt drive as opposed to a triple belt on the tsc-10hb. Spend the extra on the heavier saw if you can afford it.

No its the same saw.

Thanks for the help guys,
Ended up with the tc-12 with sliding table.
which will do everything I want and more.

And yes I did get it from Leda and yet again got fantastic service.

Mazi :eek:

Nice score mate!

Sorry Mazi, you were initially looking at a MJ2325a 10 vs tsc-10hb (around $1200-$1600) but then you got the tc-12 (around $2700)??

Crikey! (Jealous)

I presume it's because you found weaknesses with both your initial choices?
