Saws...

What are you guys using to rip, cut?
I had a couple of small bandsaws but ripping 15" pieces of AYC is a waste...
I currently have a Jet 10" benchtop tablesaw but it's leaving a somewhat bad feeling with me.... It's powerful and quiet... but everything is proprietary to this saw and it's all in metric... I can't put a decent miter in, miter slop is horrendous.... the fence locks down like fort knox but you need to check the fence past the blade to make sure you work will not bind on you...
The Splitter on the blade guard will catch you work from time to time.. which sucks. All in all it is going back Monday as to me it is a piece that should be redesigned... You can only make adjustments so many times before it becomes annoying.. Blade height adjustments don't lock, something i didn't notice when i was looking at this saw..
I really don't want to spend $500+...

Thanks in advance,
Paul
