TABLE SAWS

A table saw is a woodworking tool consisting of a circular saw blade, mounted on an arbor, driven by an electric motor. The blade protrudes through the surface of a table, which provides support for the material (usually wood). In a modern table saw, the depth of the cut is varied by moving the blade up and down: the higher the blade protrudes above the table, the deeper the cut that is made in the material.
