So the SKILSAW SPT 99-1 series gives two benefits, a higher torque to cut through harder wood and a deeper cut at 90-degrees.

A worm drive allows the motor to be mounted lower in the table saw body, increasing available cut depth. With a direct drive motor, the diameter of the motor reduces the cut depth available to you. The other benefit of this system is an increased cut depth. Torque is the rotational power or force felt at the cutting tip. This gearing allows you to use a higher rpm motor slowed by the worm drive to give a lower rpm at the blade but with higher torque. SKIL makes a big deal of their worm drive range of power tools, so what’s that all about, and does it provide any benefits over a direct drive motor as used by DeWalt?Ī worm drive is a type of gearing where a worm shaft, looking like a large coarsely threaded bolt, drives a worm wheel. Depending on your particular use, such differences may be the points that sway you one way or another. Instead, I’d like to focus on the eight differences I feel are worthy of a closer look. There are many similarities between these two saws, which we won’t dwell on. With 10-inch blades and 2.4 horsepower motors, these saws suit the construction site or higher-end home user levels. Yet, there are features on the DeWalt you won’t find on the SKILSAW, and if your use or budget doesn’t justify the SKILSAW’s extra features, you’ll find a solid performer in the DeWalt DWE7491RS. It’s beyond the range of this article to discuss the difference but in short? It’s a matter of personal preference. A 1 signifies a 24-tooth carbide blade, and a 2 a 30-tooth Diablo blade, tipped with titanium cobalt. The difference? It’s the supplied blade, with SKIL using the SPT99-1 to describe the saw model and the last dash number to describe the blade. SKIL markets the SPT99 series as either a -11 or -12 model. Those few extra dollars buy you some valuable features, enhancing capability, safety, and convenience.Ī point to note. However, I think you’re getting a lot of bang for your buck with the SKILSAW SPT99-11, and I’ve selected this table saw as providing the best value for money.

Onboard storage system provides easy access to the Blade Guard Assembly, fence, riving knife, miter gauge, wrenches, push stick, and cord wrap when not in use.The price difference between these two saws is not huge, with the SKIL table saw slightly more expensive than the DeWalt.
