    Saw
    Have a miter saw and works okay. But it is very limited. It does not cut
    More than a few inches out. I had to cut a board 24" x24" had a difficult time.
    Had to finish with a skill saw. Some have told me I need a table saw.

    But it has to be small. I am lousy cutting wood straight. See picture what I got now

    Yes, a table saw is what you need. However, you can get a clamping edge guide and use a portable saw too.

    I have a small table-top table saw with a 10" blade. You can get mini table saws with 4" blades.
    I paid something like $85 for it shipped (ebay I think). It's mostly plastic parts - an upside down skill saw. But it does the job if you aren't using it day in and out.

    Thanks. HF has 10"table saw for $139.00 and a 4" Mighty Mite Table saw for $34.99 I could
    Pick them up
    I am like you,I use it only occasionally. I will have to think about it.

    Get a 10". 4" will bog down in heavy cutting and burn out.
