I do everything a little differently (or %&*#@$ depending how you look at it). I have a POS Delta Bench saw that works great for daily tasks and is small enough to store easily. The rare times I have heavy duty jobs, I just go rent a super nice one for +- $40; I ripped strips for this boat on a rented saw. I might think differently if I was a homeowner but that's the way I look at it now. Spend the $500 on a small diamond for your wife... it will get you a lot further toward your goal than a new piece of machinery :D
