    Holzmann TS200 or Bosch gts 10xc

    If you want a quiet motor I'd stay away from Jobsite saws, unless it's not a deal-breaker them the new rutlands saw looks ok, similar to the DeWalt but cheaper with a few more features.

    New Large Slab Levelling/Milling Table

    marius hornberger on youtube has a great setup for slab flattening, his original video on it uses independent rails and bearers directly on the floor, he uses a string method to get them parralell and in plane with the rails, simple and a lot less material to store between uses

    Sander and vacuum

    the festool ct15 extractor is great, i got it the same time as the festool sander, it currently sells for around 300 pounds, it has a relatively low volume bag, but i use a small cyclone interceptor with it so it lasts ages.
