Re: Benchtop Tablesaws: We Want Your Feedback

I bought a RIDGID Heavy Duty 10 In. Portable Table Saw With Stand in 2008 and am very happy with it in terms of power, accuracy, dust collection, and portability. It was important to be able to wheel this saw through smaller doors. The Bosch had a larger wheelbase and was a hundred bucks more, so the choice was logical.

Most woodworkers will find workarounds for deficiencies in any tool they like, however, this tool has done everything I need from it out of the box. Since my shop is small and L shaped I use a workbench with outriggers (and a Porter Cable trim saw)to cut plywood. This actually is preferable to trying to use a small tablesaw for cutting sheet goods. I use the RIGID primarily for sizing boards, and the intricate cuts needed for cabinetry. GOOD TOOL!
