You can find small table saws through Micro-Mark. They are MICROLUX brands. They are kind of pricee in my opinion. I think Delta also makes a miniture table saws. You can find them through a Home Depot or Lowes if you are near one of them.

Snoopy's right the MM ones are a bit pricey...dont know how big you want...but at Lowes the Delta 10" table saw is $89 and Woody has a good point check out harbour freight...

Micro Mark is ggod place to look for what you want. Then go out and find the same thing at a more realistic price at a store that specializes in tools, like Home Depot, Lowe's, or internet or catalog sources likeHarbour Freight. You'll be lots happier, and so will your checkbook.

Maybe a scroll saw would be better suited for that type of cutting ?

Band saws work nice for cutting "rough" (torch cut) steel plate I use a 32 TPI blade.

I've got a Delta 9" Band saw....It's like $100.00

Yeah, bandsaws are great tools! I have a 105" commercial Delta in the wood shop. You can't beat it for cutting out shapes with tight curves. I need to get a little variable speed table top model for cutting sheet stock.
