I am about to plunge into the woodworking hobby and I am looking to buy
my first table saw. BRBR

My own suggestion is to buy a bandsaw, as good as you can afford first. A Delta
or Jet 14" is a good start (I have a MiniMAx 16, but it costs a lot more). Soup
it up with the kit from Iturra. To handle crosscuts get a good miter saw.

I went the tablesaw route first, as do most people--from an Artisan CS, to a
Unisaw, and am now waiting on my Felder delivery. I went 10 years without a
bandsaw -- don't repeat my mistake. A bandsaw can do a lot more than a table
saw if properly tuned.
