Hi Paul

Welcome to Ljs

Since the table saw is the main tool in woodworking I would give up the space for a contractor saw. I’ve owned Bosch and other portable saws and they just don’t compare to a contractor saw. When you think about it even when the portable saw is folded up it still takes up 60% of the space a contractor saw will take, My students who have purchased the Ridgid contractor saws have been very pleased with them.
