Bosch Table Saw

Tony, this is a nice review. Thanks for the info on this saw.

-- With God's help all things are possible- even woodworking. Woodworking is not just a hobby, it is an (expletive deleted) expensive hobby.

Tony, I have the previous model (Bosch 4000) and I agree with your comments. The major differences between the 4000 and 4100 are the riving knife/guard system and the addition of the t-slot in the fence. Both are features I wish I had. I agree about the extensions. Not only would I recommend this saw to those who need a portable saw, but also who have small shops, like mine. Being able to fold it up and put it away when not in use frees up valuable floor space.

Glad you like the saw. Enjoyed your reading your review.

I posted a review of the older Model 4000 here: http://lumberjocks.com/reviews/23

Tony,

Like Gary, I too have the 4000 model. It is a great saw. I thought I read somewhere that the 4100 has a digital readout fence…or is this another optional add-on? I hope you get a lot of mileage out of it, I had mine for over almost 3 years already, and it has served me very well.

Shane,
The 4100DG-09 comes with the digital fence. Mine is the 4100-09 with the standard fence.

Yup, I also got a Bosch and it aint liite but is packed with nice features.
I added a router table to mine and I use it these days primarily with a dado head so It is very usefull and versitile for me.

Any body knows the different between Bosch 4100DG-09 model and Bosch GTS10 in term of features’ upgrade?

4100dg-09 vs GTS 10. I Have the GTS 10 and would say the 4100 has the new blade guard system and digital fence readout however, i think the GTS 10 is bigger and industrial class. I wish the GTS10 had the digital readout however mine is very accurate and is a brilliant table saw. i think i would have bought the 4100dg09 had my dealer had one but the GTS 10 was in stock ang i got a good deal. super machines

Tony,

I agree that this is a great saw. I use it all the time in my business. I specialize in kitchens and finish carpentry. I have purchased both the side and rear extension fences and find them very useful. I also have the Bosch 10 inch dual bevel miter saw mounted on the Bosch track stand. Both saws allow me to do predictable, accurate and safe work. I can highly recommend both. The table saw stand is sheer genius.

Thank you Jaxx, thank you Tony..
I’m more convinced now that this portable TS is a great saw.
Have been thinking to have one for jobsite use.

Thanks

Some weeks ago one of the posters here requested information on the additional router table to my saw. I want to apolojize for not being able to answer directly as I have lost that E mail. I was unable to post pictures but will attempt to do so in the near future.

Good review Tony. I hope you enjoy your saw.
