Thanks John, yes I became aware that there is some conflicting in terms between grading timber and the term used for felling / logging.
What I think I have understood correctly is that if a certain grade requires 4" x 7' 'clear cutting' on say an 8ft board, then it means there must be enough...
In an effort to understand timber grading better, I often see the term 'clear cuttings' referenced in various grading criteria. Can someone explain what this actually means, and what it excludes etc?
many thanks :)

the ITech 01332 does have the twin slots you mentioned which allows for great jig versatility. As does the laguna...
Thanks for all the replies, and I had a feeling most would suggest buying an older machine and refurbish, based on perusing older threads. I just don't have the confidence / knowledge to that at the moment although down the line it would be something I would love to do for all the reasons...
I am looking to get a solid table saw for my expanding workshop and for many months have eyeing the Itech 01332 as the contender at £1150 give or take. However I am wondering if there is a huge difference in bouncing up to the next ' bracket' in the 2 / 2.5 K range. For example the Laguna Fusion...
