I don't have as much shop space any more, as my shop now has to share

So between a bandsaw, jointer, planer, RAS, table saw, and circular saw,
what tools can be combined to cover the basic operations we need to do?
Crosscut, rip, and maybe resaw. I'm not sure I trust my RAS to rip,
it's missing important pieces like the anti-kickback pawls.

I was just talking about this on Hobby Machinist in a thread titled
Least Used Machines.

I'd probably let the RAS go first. Bandsaw would probably be the LAST
machine to go. I happen to have 4 bandsaws and I use all of them. LOL.
Second to last would probably be the table saw. If its a cabinet saw
with leaves or built into a central workstation it can do everything all
the other saws can do except curved cuts and cutting steel.
