Classic Series Vertical Panel Saw With Makita Saw Motor

The choice for people who know what they want like a smooth and accurate carriage using sealed bearings and a powerful Makita saw motor.

The Compact Classic Series was developed as a lower price point panel saw for an apples-to-apples comparison with the bare bones panel saws that are on the market. They have identical accessories but the features of our machines set it apart from the low end competing panel saws. The differences are the standard features that come with each panel saw. We have features like a powder coated frame vs. a zinc coated frame, real bearings on the carriage vs. a U bolt with nylon rings, a patented alignment system that doesn't go out of square, more material rollers, nickel plated guide tubes vs zinc plated guide tubes and a two legged stand vs a one legged stand. When these are compared, we feel there is "still no comparison" and your choice will be the Saw Trax Machine. Accessories can be purchased as needed instead of the bundled accessory packages we offer in other models. This is the choice of the user who knows what he wants and not what we think he should have. Models come in Compact frames with 52" and 64" cross cuts. Both models use the Makita 5007F saw. Not just a panel saw, you can use other cutting inserts in our carriage like a router, rolling shear, pivoting razor knife and glass cutter.
