Table Saws (31 items found)

A versatile power tool addition to any workshop, a table saw can easily make a variety of cuts ranging from dado to compound cuts. Ace Hardware carries a large collection of table saws and bench saws from well-known brands. You'll find everything you need, whether you're searching for a jigsaw, a miter saw stand, a stationary band saw or something in between.

Bench Saws Vs. Stationary Table Saws

When shopping for a new miter saw stand or table saw bench, the first thing you'll need to know is what each saw classification means and what you can expect from its performance. The three most basic types of table saws are bench saws, compact table saws and stationary saws.

Benchtop Bench Saws

Benchtop saws, or job site saws, are lightweight, affordable and easily transportable. These table saws are ideal for users who want to perform an array of light-duty tasks in garages or workshops. Although benchtop saws don't typically include a stand or transport wheels, their lighter weight lets you carry them from job site to job site with minimal effort.

If your main goal is to cut soft materials like plywood or softer woods like pine, a bench saw might be a great fit for your needs. Alternatively, if you frequently work with full-size material sheets, a stationary table saw could be a better option.

Compact Table Saws

These portable table saws have many of the same characteristics as bench saws, but they're often designed with extra features like stands, anti-kickback pawls and metal rolling cage bases for job site durability. Both compact table saws and benchtop saws feature lightweight construction and direct-drive universal motors that deliver dependable performance for a range of applications. Some compact table saw models even resemble the design of full-size table saws, but their rip capacities are not as expansive.

Stationary Table Saws

Stationary saws tend to be more stable than compact table saws, especially if you're working on projects that require cutting large pieces of wood. Often used by professionals, stationary band saws and table saws are ideal for users who require extra power, cutting precision and rip accuracy that you might not get with a smaller table saw with a stand for complex projects.

Corded Vs. Portable Cordless Table Saws

If you regularly cut larger or thicker pieces of materials, a corded band saw or corded table saw may deliver the extra power and accuracy you need. Corded models are often preferred by users who primarily work in dedicated workshops or garage spaces. On the other hand, cordless table saws may be a better fit for contractors who move from job sites often.

Do I Need a Band Saw?

A band saw is a great example of a high-powered stationary table saw that can help you cut through just about any material you will work with, including metal, wood and more. They’re great at cutting long pieces of wood lengthwise with precision, and lend that precision cutting attribute to curves, corners, edges and other intricate details.

Although advanced DIYers may want a band saw in their workshop, the expertise required and level of risk associated with band saws means that beginners may want to work their way up to using them.

Different Types of Benchtop Saws

Benchtop saws are highly portable, making them great to transport from job site to job site. Find common job site bench saws at Ace, including:

• Tile saw: Sometimes referred to as wet tile saws, these benchtop saws are ideal for cutting ceramic, porcelain and stone tiles into special designs or to fit edges perfectly.
• Miter saw: Use a miter saw for general carpentry needs. Great with wood, when it comes to cutting angles and bevels, miter saws are essential.
• Chop saw: Sometimes confused with miter saws due to looks, chop saws are designed to cut metal, while miter saws work better with wood.
• Scroll saw: Scroll saws let you create intricate designs and patterns and are used for specialty projects where precision is key.
