Is it an "american style" because it include a table saw?

I am certain, in Laguna terms, this is a good deal. And I am certain that
these are quality tools.

But way too rich for my blood.

Lets see, 6 commercial grade power tools for less than $1,600 each.

Assuming you can fully depreciate in 24 months max, sounds like an
opportunity.

For the hobbist, may be a bit much.

I'd have to say so about the American style, typically European shops have
multi tasking machines. The TS is usually the jointer, shaper, and planer.

No doubt expensive but still a bargain for all of those pieces.
