Hey, never have enough tools!
Have 2 bench saws.
A Makita 8" portable for quick job site cuts that simply won't die.
A 10 cast iron beast with a Bessemyer rip fence as well as a custom sled.
When I set it up I used my micronometer and vernier calipers as I wanted precision, and got it.
With the beast I can slice 1/8" X 3" slats to make storage bins as well as rip 2" oak all day long.
Also have a 12" Makita sliding miter saw for fine angle work like picture frames and Ogee mouldings.
But then I am a 'tool nut'.
Each tool has its job.
