This is mine, it was a pile of crap when I took it home from the garage sale free pile.

EDIT: It still kinda is but it cuts well.

I just use my dad’s sawstop. Got rid of my crappy contractor one when I moved

Honestly not much I need a table saw for nowadays, I’m usually ok with the accuracy of a straight edge and circ saw

Ryobi 10". Think it was about $150 when I got it. Good enough for home use ripping plywood and LVP flooring.

When the going gets tough, the tough go cyclic.

Skil 5825, 6 1/2" worm drive. Don't have the room for a table saw, and they kinda scare me if I'm being honest.

I've got a Sears/Craftsman that was my grandfathers and a Delta that I got in payment for a job. Both 10"

Delta 10”. It’s the small one with a 24” table. Got it for free because it didn’t run. Got it home, and found the little safety key in the switch was broken. Delta sent me 2 on their dime.

This one. Not my picture. I built a router table into the opening on the right side.

Old school Delta contractor's saw...

...with upgraded fence and power switch.

I lusted after a unisaw for many years, but life happened, and I stopped woodworking as much. If I was in the market today, I would probably seriously consider a SawStop. I've had more than enough close calls for this lifetime.

I have the same lackluster Craftsman you do and I paid more for the Delta fence kit that I put on it than I paid for it, it was also next to free.

I had a pair of the Rockwell/Delta Unisaws in my hey-day. The original best table saw, just not portable.

Some cheap Ryobi. Bought it for one project: making a cover for an ugly tx line service box. Gray stained plywood tower with some half assed trim and a small solar lantern on top.

Wish they’d just tear it out, nobody uses POTS anymore.

A Ryobi portable-scissor-leg-folding-thing-with-wheels. It has a falloff extension and part of the table slides (makes cutting angles a breeze).

Bought it 15 years ago, have used it twice

Looks like this but part of the table can slide with the material.

Just no

Craftsman from around 1998. Unfortunately It’s done a lot more work as a table than a saw lately.

In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

Rockwell/Delta Unisaw and a DeWalt 8-1/4 cordless 60 volt that just keeps running. Saw has a Godly number of hours on it. It rides in the back of my truck tucked up under the tool box with the fence hanging out. What a badass little saw. Its going on 7 years old. Love that little saw.

I have the Dewalt compact 8-1/4” jobsite table saw. It’s alright but sometimes I wish I had a larger one.

Big ole heavy Craftsman that I’ve had for about 35 years.

DeWalt 10". Nothing fancy, but it's cut a lot of lumber for me.
