I'm a total noob when it comes to woodworking but just bought my first
house and would like to put a workbench in my garage. I have nothing
to work on now but would have worked out some plans to for a bench
that I think will suit my needs but am now looking for equipment to
buy. What's the difference between a table saw, mitre saw, circular
saw, or any of the other popular saws out today that I might need to
know about or consider?

TIA,
