- Wait a minute, you're comparing Inca's list price to the discount price you
- can get the others for. The Inca is goes "on sale" twice each year for about
- $2200. The Unisaw with 3 HP motor and Unifence is about $1700 - that's a
- $500 difference (I'd stack the Inca's standard fence up against the
- Unifence anyday). And, don't forget to add in the cost of the Delta's
- motor cover ($60) and an upgrade to the miter guage (an Accu-miter is
- about $148).
