Is there such thing as a mini-table saw?

gsetter, which brand did you get?

None other than the popular and famous "Made in China" brand. Works good though. It could use a rip fence ( it doesn't come with one and none offered) but I just clamp a steel ruler to the table.
Here is the link to one just like it http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=2594&item=5959780254&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW

Thanks. Love the voice-over.

Have you considered a hobby bandsaw? It might do all you want and then some. Micro Mark carries one.

I have a small bandsaw for use in stained glass work. I've ordered a toothed blade for use with wood. can't wait to put it to use.

I have both the Harbor Freight Table saw and the Mini chop saw. The chop saw works great but I have not used the table saw. The Table saw table seems a bit too small for my liking and I need a blade with more teeth per inch.

My wife (she is the woodworker in the family) has the Microlux mini table saw from Micro Mark and it really works fantastic for precision cutting on small wood. I think the price is around $120.

She also has a mini chop saw from Harbor Freight. Cost about $20 and even cuts light soft metals. (brass, aluminum)

Well Fundy, like they say, great mimes do that stupid trapped in a box in the wind thing alike...............wait, that's great minds, aw forget it [%-)]

But I still stand by the line that justifies the law that you can't kill street performers in NYC "a mime is a terrible thing to waste"

I think Harbor Freight offers a mini saw as well. I know they have a small miter saw.

Dremel used to make one that took about a 4" blade. I'm not sure if they still do.

I've picked up a few wooden kits lately and I've come to the conclusion that I really don't need a "kit." Very few have been close to what I want and even fewer won't look 1890's without some work. But the parts are all just little bitty pieces of wood.

Now back in my contractor days I build structures for real, so I'm thinking if I just had a little table saw and a bunch of balsa wood, I could make everythings from mines to tressel bridges to saloons to school houses. I could make them to order and to fit and save a bunch of change paying for other peoples' figuring things out and overhead.

So, do they make an itty bitty table saw?
