I am in the process of setting up a workshop for woodworking, only a diy hobby type thing! I don't have huge amounts of money to spend on tools and I can't decide whether it is better to by a decent circular saw and take some time to make some jigs etc., or to buy one of the budget tables saws? I have read a few articles and most say that the table saw is really important but the cheap ones are rubbish. I guess to begin with it will be mainly used for ripping sheet goods and the odd cross cut or bevel cuts. I'm not bothered about being able to cut tenons or anything like that as I would like to learn to do this by hand first. Which ever tool I get what spec should I be looking for in terms of power etc.?
Thanks
