I've also got the TS2400LS, and on my recommendation, a friend of mine
who was building cabinets for his new kennel (he's a vet) bought the
TS3650. We have both been very happy with the purchases.

I have the Ridgid portable contractor's saw (TS2400LS), and I'm pleased with
it.

Positives:
* The fold-up stand makes it a breeze to get in and out of my truck by
myself.
* The blade that came with it is pretty good.
* The fence is nice and sturdy. It doesn't wiggle left and right if I put
too much pressure on the wood.

Negatives:
* The top is aluminum, so I can't use magnetic accessories.
* The miter gauge is crummy, but I'm told the standard one is pretty crummy
on just about every saw.
* The top is too small to do much crosscutting.

It's good for a contractor, but not as a dedicated cabinetmaker's saw.

I'm thinking about getting a Ridgid table saw. I recently moved from
Northern VA to Maine and gave my son all my stationary ww tools (Delta and
Jet). Anybody out there using a Ridgid? Any problems or praise about it?

Seems like the Ridgid has a great lifetime guarantee.
