Hello All,
I am willing to invest in a Double miter saw and an automated underpinner.
I want to upgrade from a Morso chopper and a Cassese CS89 what do you guys suggest?
Thanks!

If you are going new, a cassese 969, but if you are looking second hand the 969 is too new to find a second hand one so the 939 is a good bet.

I'll vouch for the 969, excellent machine, and if you can get a smart stop with it, so much the better

I think that is the one we had a demo of from D and J simons, it's an awesome machine, just a warning though it's 800kg , so will only stand on a solid floor!

I've got the 969 with smart stop and can't fault it.
The machine has made it way quicker to produce frames whilst increasing the quality of the joints and the accuracy of the sizing.

Just allow for a decent dust extractor, you really need an industrial type one to pull out all the sawdust.

You also need a large compressor as well as they are air hungry.My 939 keeps a 2.2KW 250L hydrovane constantly going when I am cutting.
