Conical would be awesome, but I'm buying myself a table saw for Papa's Day

Let's see it. Perhaps one of these? It will cut wood, but not your hot dog.

I've seen that; how much it it, like five grand?

I'm looking at saws that are ~$200 or so. Big enough where they've got a decent-sized, stable table, but not one of the real nice ones that I won't use enough to justify the extra expense. I've actually twice purchased one of the uber-cheap, $99 saws, and changed my mind and returned it still in the box since I knew I would ultimately want a nicer one.

Anyone have any recommendations? Table saws under $250 or so?

I have a Skil table saw. Works for me. It cuts square and true. So far, it has had enough capacity to do everything I've asked of it.

I got a Ryobi for under $250. Table top, no legs. I clamped it onto a sawhorse rig with wheels and used it while finishing my basement.

Must have ripped 50-60 2x4's to frame around duct work and get my coffered cielings framed. Worked great. I just ripped wome 5/8ths plywood last weekend with it to finishout my kegerator closet.

Grain mill unless I get off my duff and finish building mine.
Grain.
Couple of forward sealing faucets.
Banjo burner.
March pump.
Bottle gun.

Cash windfall so I can quit my job and brew beer all day!
