Incra TS Ls and a yet-to-be-purchased sawstop

400 delivery fee? Is that from Sawstop to the store or to your house? Sawstop has not had a delivery fee added on to the final price in quite sometime. I bought a 3hp PCS in December and there was not an added on delivery fee that was charged to the store and passed along. I remember back a few years ago Sawstop had that practice but it was eliminated. It very well may be that in typical Woodcraft fashion you spoke with an ill informed employee.

I wish that were the case (and I’ll speak with the owner to be sure), but I called the “other” Nashville distributor/retailer (of course not mentioning the woodcraft charge- just asked them for the “out-the-door” price) and they said the same thing. Frustrating- may start calling the lousivlle stores next.

When the PCS came out they had a “promotion” for no delivery charge. Looks like its been reinstated. What really irks me is that “delivery” to them means delivery it to the Woodcraft store, not to your shop.

C’mon Sawstop! If you want an extra $400, up the price. Stop playing games.

The TS-LS uses its own rails, so if you can find someone willing to sell you the saw without the rails and fence you’ll save a bit.

The extension table is usable (you can cut/rout an opening for a router plate). Alternatively, the extension table is dispensable if you plan on getting Incra’s 28×32 table for saws or making your own.

Sounds like the delivery fee is a new thing? That really sucks.

-- Optimists are usually disappointed. Pessimists are either right or pleasantly surprised. I tend to be a disappointed pessimist.

I could see that fee if it was being trucked to your house from the vendor. As pricey as SS is I would think this will have a tendency to eat into their sales. I can buy a lot of nice saws cheaper(granted not SS technology) and not have to pay $400.00 to get it delivered.
Just my $.02.

Rock, keep calling around I think you may have better luck. I noticed you mentioned trying Louisville so I don’t know how close you are. I bought mine from the Lexington Woodcraft in December and there wasn’t a shipping add on. I never liked the Louisville Woodcraft so good luck, they are usually to busy being cranky to be of much help. Bargain Supply in Louisville did not have the shipping fee either and you can usually get along with them. Mueller Company in Cincinnati were very easy to deal with also but I doubt they are in your area if you are calling Nashville.

I can’t help you on the Incra setup but you can buy the Sawstop without rails and fence if you find a decent salesman.

Rock, I was wondering if you might be willing to update us on your Sawstop/Incra setup.
I’m in the market for a PCS 1.75, but am very unsure of which fence to go with. Ideally I’ll incorporate my router into my TS rather than having a separate router table (for space reasons). I stumbled upon this thread and now have even more options tumbling around in my head.
Did you find a Sawstop vendor that sold you your saw without the fence/rails, and what discount did you get for not buying them with your saw?
Finally, how’s the Incra system working? I imagine it’s pretty nice especially with the router extension, just wonder how you think it compares to either one of the SS fences.
Thanks

I’m in the process of setting up my new Industrial Saw Stop with the complete Incra TS-LS system. It was delivered today (with no delivery fee) and I’m about 75% complete with the set up. SawStop informed me that they will do a custom set up with the Industrial model but not any of the other models. By that I mean I was able to order the saw without the rail system since I already had the Incra Rails for a 52” extension table and left side Router Station. I absolutely love the Saw Stop Company. I’ve been a woodworker for 50 years and have never come across a better machine purchase. The packaging was excellent and the instructions for set up very clear. Incra also impressed me with the quality of their products and their customer service. My only problems so far have been my own fault. First I drilled all the mounting holes on the wrong side of the router table. I will be laminating a new piece of laminate over the existing top and hope the router inserts will be able to be adjusted to the slight height increase. The only other problem is mounting the 52” extension table from Saw Stop into the Incra Rail system. Incra instructions don’t really account for the 2 inch thick table so I’m going to have to come up with a way of attaching the Saw Stop table top to the Incra rail system.
I hope to have the new system complete tomorrow except for the electrical. Will have to hire an electrician for that.
