I've got some out of the city work to do and while it is possible that a long guide and skilsaw 77 could do some ripping, my most recent idea was to purchase a portable table saw. I have a 20 year old Delta Unisaw in my shop, and I'm not about to lug that thing.
There are many brands, and my local brick and mortar power tool store recommends the Bosch 4100, and I am impressed. Not with the saw per se, but with the attention to detail in the accessories, such as an outfeed table and side extension table. The downside of this saw is its weight, which is near 125 lbs, although the 4100-10 has trimmed the weight down a tad. Nevertheless it is the heaviest saw in its class, and loading that rascal in and out of my pickup seems like a chore.
Other usual suspects include the DeWalt, Makita (a HD rental favorite), Rigid, and the Skilsaw, the Skilsaw being the lightest.
Does anyone have any real world experience with these types of saws and lugging them to and from a job site?
Thanks in advance for all who respond.
