How much better are the heavy stationary table saw with cast iron beds than the job site ones commonly found at Home Depot?

Also, what a 3 hp saw do that a 1.5 hp saw cannot?

Do you want to rip more than 24 inchs at a time ?

Do you want to balance a 4x8 sheet on a 24 inch table or 36 or 48 inch table.

Do you want a fence longer than a 1 1/2 feet.

I'm talking about the bigger 240v saws which do actually have 3hp induction motors

It won't trip that 15 amp 120 breaker when you're burning your way through a maple 2x12x14
