Roger, this is an excellent buy for a new saw. I almost got a PM2000 earlier this year when PM was having a sale on the 3HP model and I believe it was running about $2200. Now they are selling for $2500. At $1700 for the saw you got a great deal. It is a quality saw and should last you a lifetime.

Actually I should say that I haven’t gotten the saw yet, wasn’t enough room in my truck after loading the bandsaw. We shook hands on it and I will pick it up next weekend. I am glad to hear that my first instinct was right though.

Thanks!

Hey Roger
Congrats on a super group of new tools I have been the owner of a 5hp PM for more than 15years and it has given me great service I hope your PM 2000 gives as good of service as mine has given me for years to come.

You can hardly go wrong with a PM…..they are a bit pricey but their tools are good quality…and the customer support has been flawless. I have a couple PM tools – 3520B lathe and a PM2800 drill press….both have been reliable and very accurate….I saw grab it fast whenever there is a deal on their tools…..

And above all…welcome to LJ’s…it is my favorite woodworking site….and a great source of inspiration and information…

I have had my 5hp PM66 for about 15 yrs, and I gave about $2000 for it then, so I say that is a very good deal.

I picked up the PM2000 today. I thought we would never get that out of the truck and into the shop! Took 4 guys to man-handle that thing. I swear I am never moving! Now I just need to get some 220v down to the shop! I also ordered the Grizzly 8” jointer last week and picked it up on Friday. I have got to find a electrician!
