A 'premium' priced table saw needs to have an accurate fence, and if it doesn't it might as well be a circular saw.So let’s see how Hercules holds its own against the best DeWalt miter saw. If that's the case then they've failed to 'copy' the one feature that makes the DeWalt as good as it is. Maybe the Hercules saw does have the gear driven fence but it sure doesn't look like it in pictures. Trying to pretend they are "beating" DeWalt at copying their plastic cladding is embarrassing. HF is good for what they are when they stay true to what they are, and that's lower quality tools for a much lower price. And if that's the case it's pretty misleading marketing to make a 'premium' saw to be a visual rip-off of another, but not spend the money and R&D to actually make it function similarly. Sounds like a good marketing strategy to me! Similar to taking a Pontiac Fiero, putting a Lambo fibreglass kit on the outside, and selling it for $10k less than the Lambo.Īgain this is all assumptions based on the pictures, but several people have noted the gear drive fence seems to be missing from the Hercules. If that's the case, they basically took a $100 saw, put DeWalt look-alike cladding on the outside, and tripled the price. Copying the appearance of the DeWalt does not mean they've copied the quality or accuracy. See above, it seems like this HF saw is missing the same geared fence that the DeWalt has.
