Table Saw

[Stones]

I'm looking to get myself a table saw.  Not wanting to spend a fortune, thinking up to £250 or so. 

 

Any recommendations?

I have one of these that I'm happy with. Only issue is the non-standard size groves in the (cast) top for sledges. Mine has an induction motor which is really quiet.

Need bigger?

I was looking fir one with a cast top but could not find one (that I could afford) I bought one of these https://www.screwfix.com/p/scheppach-hs120-315mm-brushless-electric-table-saw-240v/15413

 

but with another name on it, and cheaper. Very good but not accurate enough for furniture making. Always get an induction motor, soo much quieter and easier to live with.

Get a cheap saw and a half decent planer/thicknesser.

What was the other name for that and where from if possible?

@pudding it was similar to this one but had a sliding guide as well, can’t find it now but it was on Ebay. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Einhell-TC-TS-2031-U-Table-Circular-Saw-blade-315-mm/153278560671?epid=10026445154&hash=item23b01d399f:g:UfkAAOSw~flb~BDi

 

mine is the same as this one https://www.toolstation.com/scheppach-hs120-2200w-brushless-315mm-table-saw-with-sliding-mitre-table/p95088   But I am sure it was einhill and not that much money, but it was a few years ago now.

That's cheaper than shoplifting

Just gave a mate £50 for this. Wish I'd said no to the saw and waited for the Lidl one! ?

Tidy. You can now spend 6 months and £400 making motorised titanium legs for it
