IMHO you are still going to want a table saw for cutting hardwoods. There are some things that are going to take you 10 times longer to do on the CNC. Want to rip down some boards? 4 seconds to setup and 4 seconds to cut on a table saw, vs the 10-20 minutes it¡¯s going to take setting up and cutting on the CNC. Want to rip 1/8¡± strips of hardwood? Not going to happen, or at least not well on the CNC. Hobbyist here as well with a 5¡¯x10¡¯ machine and no way would I get rid of my table saw. Also doesn¡¯t replace a jointer/planner though it can plank down large boards. ?
