New guy checking on Table Saws

[rahimlee54]

I have been researching table saws for a little bit but I haven't run it by anyone. I have read alot of good about the current Ridgid tablesaw R4511, I went to the Big Box and checked it out, needs a new fence for sure. I also thought it was cheaper than it was so that opens up alot more doors at the price. I was looking for a few recommendations, Used is cool. I was actually checking out a couple for sell here. I want to get a contractors saw, just to make sure I stick with it. I'd hate to drop 1k+ on a cabinet saw and then watch it go to waste.

Any help is appreciated.

I cant wait to get saw dust all over my garage and get nagged about it .

I just called another sears and the guy tried to sell me this saying it was the same with a few changes. I go online see the weight is 265 lbs the 22124 is 468 lbs, someone correct me if I am wrong but these probably aren't comparable?

IMHO ............Not in the sme league as the 22124 at all.
