  What is the best sliding table saw for wood cutting? If you are a professional or at least an intermediate level player, definitely you would want to get the best. This is what you need to avoid any inconvenience in your work and to save time as well. However, you have to know that this can only be determined by testing and trying out the different kinds of these table saws before you make your purchase decision. Here are some of the factors to consider in choosing the best sliding table saw.

   

  Tested on this feature - The best table saw with sliding bed should be able to allow multiple cuts and it should also come with a trigger. This feature enables the motor to automatically adjust the angle of the blade as soon as the stroke is taken. It reduces human error in guessing where the cut will start and finish. When it comes to this feature, if a certain machine has it, then you can rest assured that it will give you consistent, high quality cuts every time.

   

  Easy to use and easy to maintain - Another feature to look for is its size. It should be large enough to accommodate a lot of turning circular strokes. Likewise, it should also have a light weight so that you don't have any difficulty in moving this around. This can greatly help you as you move around your workbench or to other places in your home to make use of this table saw.

   

  Versatile and comfortable - The best sliding table saws should not only provide you with convenient operation but it should also be comfortable to use. Make sure that you can sit for long hours on its table and not feel sore even after hours of operation. Another thing that you should consider is the ergonomic design. Make sure that it's designed in such a way that it makes you feel comfortable while operating it. Ask for opinions from family members or friends who've used this particular product before you decide to purchase one.

   

  Miter Gauge capability - Probably the most important thing that you should look for in these saws is their miter gauge. A miter gauge is the ability of this saw to cut at different angles while using different thicknesses of materials. The best sliding table saws will have a minimum of 40-mm capacity while larger capacity saws can be found in the hundreds of millimeters. You should choose your miter gauge by its weight as the lighter the saw, the better for you as it can perform multiple cuts without much effort.

   

  Motor capacity - It's best that the motor has a capacity that matches the number of strokes you'll be doing. If you're frequently making cuts on a wide variety of materials, it's best that the motor has more capacity. This is especially true if you're using it at home as you may be using it more often compared to a professional shop that uses only professional grade saws. Some computer panel saws use motors that have a higher capacity than the maximum capacity of the saw itself which makes the motor work harder thereby increasing the overall cutting time and preventing you from cutting yourself accidentally.
