Great feedback guys....you are bringing up some great questions and ideas. ?Jason and Mac, thanks for the recommendations!?Cliff - Height- Really good consideration that I hadn't thought of. ?hmmmm.?
Hamish Casimir- "One of the few negatives are the slots for the mitre gauge." Great intel. ?
"Also the thicker Euro shaft will prevent you from using standard US,? 5/8" shaft sized saw blades, dado stacks etc." ?
? ? ? ? ? ?Also good info. ?I don't have any standard blades having moved on from my earlier cabinet saw when I bought the felder. ?I imagine any saw I get I will need to purchase a few blades as well. ?But super helpful regardless!?

"I am not sure if your dad will work on anything large in size" - We have a ?track saw and an adjustable height table, that I picture using as an indeed or outfield support when needed. ?But I picture breaking down big stuff with the track saw before bringing it to the job site saw. ?
"Theft is not uncommon on job sites" ?This is also a great point! ?Had some stuff disappear the last time I built a house. ?That was in the city where it is the cost of doing business, but that is certainly something that is worth considering.... bummer
Bill James - I am certainly better with a table saw than a circular saw! ?Regrettably I never worked on a construction crew as a kid and feel like I never earned my stripes with a circular saw. ?
Michael- Saw stop- "But after using a slider and hold downs, when I do use it I am getting a lot closer to a blade than I am comfortable with" ?
? ? This is a great point. ?It has been a few years since I've used a traditional table saw..... that blade is going to feel very close!?
