The Craftsman 10-Inch Table Saw 21805 with folding collapsible stand is ideal for do-it-yourselfers who occasionally need a table saw for small projects or around the house.

Its light weight and expandable stand make it easy to carry to the job, inside or outside. The stand (some assembly required) literally pops open in seconds, includes a dust-catching bag, and securely fastens to the saw housing without ever having to reach for a screwdriver or wrench. 

The stand includes one adjustable leg for leveling the saw when placed on an uneven surface. When not in use, this compact unit can be stowed away in a closet. For those with sensitive backs, keep in mind that this unit does not have wheels, the rig weighs close to 70 pounds, and the unit has a wide awkward shape to heft about. The handgrips are contoured plastic.

The saw itself is powered by a 15-amp motor that delivers 5000 rpm (as well as a lot of noise that is par for saw motors of this type). A 19-1/4x38-1/2-inch cast-aluminum tabletop has telescoping wings (30 inches to the right; 18-inches to the left) and a rear outfeed to help support long boards while ripping them. The saw comes with a 10-inch, 36-tooth carbide-tipped blade.

Adding to the easy portability of the Craftsman 21805 is onboard storage for the stand, blades, wrenches, rip fence, and miter gauge.
