My table saw (a used Taiwanese import I bought used about 15 years ago)

I would really like a better saw. My cash flow is somewhat limited (a
daughter in college and I am 2.5 years from retirement) and as such I am
considering two saws at present. The rec has some of the most
knowledgeable people around, so I thought I would open it up for advice
on these two models, or other suggestions.


Steel City has a cabinet saw with riving knife where the motor has been
downsized to 1.75 horsepower so it'll run on 110. If you catch a sale it
should be about $1000.
