Bandsaw. I would use it to rip lumber, resaw, and work curved pieces. It is safer, quieter, and less messy. As I do all joinery by hand, the only worth a tablesaw has for me is to make crosscuts, which I do with handsaws. My shop has a small bandsaw, which I will upgrade someday. No tablesaw though, I don’t need it.
