contractor saw(A "contractor" saw is generally a 10" table saw with an open stand and outboard motor. The motor hangs out the back and drives the arbor with a belt. It is called a "contractor" saw because it can be loaded into a truck for on-site work, although this is a bit of an exaggeration. While a contractor saw is lighter than a full-sized cabinet saw, it can still weigh upwards of 300 pounds. It would take three strong contractors to lift it out of a truck! transler)
