Default Buying a table saw, have questions, new to woodworking

In article ,
says...
I'd like to have a table saw, but no matter how hard I try I can't find a
place where I could put a good woodworker's table saw or even a contractor's
saw permanently. I really need to be able to fold the saw up and put it
away, which is a severe limitation.

If your space limitations are really that severe, I'd look into
a combination machine like the Shopsmith. It's not the worlds
best tablesaw, mainly because the table tilts instead of the
blade which makes angle cuts on large pieces difficult, but I
made do with one for years.

Keep an eye on the local classifieds. There's usually one shows
up pretty frequently. And if you buy one used, you can probably
recover most of the cost when you get more space and upgrade to
separate machines.
