===Mini and micro=== [[File:1-Inch_Micro_Table_Saw.jpg|thumb|right|A {{convert|1|in|mm|adj=on}} micro table saw.]] Mini and micro table saws have a blade diameter of {{convert|4|in|mm}} and under. Mini table saws are typically 4 inch, while micro table saws are less than 4 inch, although the naming of the saws is not well defined. Mini and micro table saws are generally used by hobbyists and model builders, although the mini table saws (4 inch) have gained some popularity with building contractors that need only a small saw to cut small pieces (such as wood trim). Being a fraction of the size (and weight) of a normal table saw, they are much easier to carry and transport. Being much smaller than a normal table saw, they are substantially safer to use when cutting very small pieces. Using blades that have a smaller kerf (cutting width) than normal blades, there is less material lost and the possibility of kickback is reduced as well.
