Table Saw vs. Miter Saw - Which one should I get?

Mar 28 (edited) in Woodworking Questions

📣Question From the Community:

I can't decide if I should get a table saw or a miter saw. I've been weighing the pros and cons, but I'm still indecisive and thought I could use your help.

> Table Saw - straight cuts, versatile, good for large projects, can occupy more space though

> Miter Saw - angled cuts, good for projects where accuracy matters more, more portable

I see the benefits of both of them, and I probably will have both down the line. But right now, I'm on a budget and I don't have a lot of space. So I have to pick which one to buy first. What's your take on my table saw vs. miter saw dilemma?

Thanks a bunch for helping me out!
