: I would like to buy a good saw for all around home
: use. Problem is I don't know whether a Radial Arm
: Saw or a Table Saw would be the best choice. Could
: anyone who has worked with both advise me? I was
: under the impression that pulling the saw over the
: work would be safer than pushing the work over the
: saw. Also if possible please advise me regarding
: a good brand name of saw.
: Thanks, wslifko@imap.pitt.edu
Again I think it depends the type of woodworking you plan to
do. I've used a radial arm saw for more then 30years. The main
reason not having a table saw is the available space. If you
are making critical cuts, then I would recommend a table saw, if you
have the available space. I think a Jet table saw is a wise
choice.
