With in reason she said.
So, after about two decades I am finally graduating college! Wife asked what I wanted for my graduation gift. After being denied a Unimog, she said yes to an American Beauty (I quoted her $7500) or table saw. Now, I grossly overestimated the cost of a new table saw, but I'll be honest, the one I have I'm inclined to never use. It works, but not exactly a safe saw, by table saw standards. I have been looking at sawstop cabinet saws, but not exclusively. I could use some collective advice to maximize this, likely once in a life time opportunity. A little background, I have a fully functional shop (table saw, 8" jointer, bench top planer, band saw, drill press, compound miter saw, and lathe). However, all my major shop tools are Craigslist/auction purchases. None are new, all require more work to be perfectly functional. I want a life-long shop tool/tools. I am also not limited to 110. Did I mention I love my wife even though she won't let me get a Unimog?
