Do you have any experience using US tools and a transformer in europe?
With the transformer you can get the 220V but you only get 50 Hz, not
the 60 as in the US. I could imagine buying a US table saw, prewired
to 220V without the need for a transformer, but I am unsure how it
will work at 50 Hz.

No experiences here. May I ask why you want a US table saw? Are you
going to import one yourself?
If I had space and money for large machinery I'd always go with 400 V
in Europe.
