Many do have bandsaws only, but given how common table saws seem to be in America that's surprisingly also true enough of small shops in the US. I think fundamentally it can sometimes break down to how much work the person does with sheet goods, which the table saw excels at working with. | |

| May 22, 2016 at 12:47 | comment | added | Graphus | You can certainly use a bandsaw for this, but just to mention you can do the basic cutting that many cutting boards require quite feasibly just using one or more hand saws. On power saws generally though, a bandsaw is in the opinion of many much preferable to a table saw if you're going to have just one in the shop. They're of course far more versatile as well as being significantly safer to use. | |
