Bosch Professional Table Saw GTS 635-216 (1.600 W, Incl. 1 X Circular Saw Blade, Optiline Wood, 216 X 30 X 1.6 Mm, 22, in Cardboard Box)

Product Information

Let’s talk about price first. The TS 254 M and 635-216 are direct competitors with both costing about €325 currently. This means they can be compared purely on quality.

Where the GTS 10 XC does have a clear advantage, however, is in terms of power. Its 2100 Watt motor will help with cutting tough hardwoods like oak and maple. Especially when you get close to the maximum cutting height, the extra 500 Watt compared to the 635-216 (1600W) can be really helpful.

Specifications

That being said, the Bosch does seem to be the most plastic-y of the three. But it also has more body, while the other two have more of an open body design. Safe and easy transport due to low weight (22 kg), ergonomic handles, and protective onboard storage Special event, club or membership offers, third party promotions or prices not available to the general public

Build quality is always hard to judge from the outside, and can really only be proven after using a machine for a few years. Given that all three saws are quite new, we’ll have to wait some time to see what actual users report when using the machines for some time.The TS 254 M actually comes with such a support bar included, made of the same material as the table top. It is sloped so you can use it for angled cuts as well. Another thing it has over the other two saws is that it can be adjusted for play. There are two screws or bolts that you can turn to make it slightly wider or narrower. This makes it fit exactly in the miter slot, eliminating any sideways movement. Tuto pilu rozhodně doporučuji všem, kdo pracují se dřevem, protože výsledky práce jsou skvělé a poměr cena / výkon více než dobrý. To find out exactly how they all differ in a meaningful way, I’ll compare them along three categories: Accuracy, size and power, and build quality. Accuracy Compared to the PTS 10 T, it is made from higher quality materials, more accurate, and slightly more powerful. It is also a bit smaller, and can be much easier carried around, because it is 10kg lighter. Fence

As a result, the 635 can cut up to 70mm high, compared to the 79mm of the GTS 10 XC. This difference is actually surprisingly small. Most 216mm saws can cut less than 70, and most 254mm table saws can cut higher than 79mm. In this case, the bigger machine doesn’t have a big advantage.While the GTS 635-216‘s miter gauge is made of plastic, the DWE7485 supplies a metal miter gauge, which feels like it will last for longer. The DeWalt’s miter gauge also has some holes to which you can add your own wooden or metal bar to make it bigger and more stable. The 635-216’s gauge does not have this. The name sounds complicated, but it is actually quite simple: 635 stands for the maximum rip capacity, and 216 stands for the maximum size of the blade in millimeters. Compared to other Bosch table saws The miter gauges on these three saws are similar. They are all quite basic, and have no stops that can be set to ‘remember’ specific angles. This means every time you change the angle, you’ll need to re-measure to make sure it is accurate.
