This situation reminds me of a song Roger McGuinn wrote about his brother in law (my aunt's husband). "If it's free it cost too much." In the case of the BIL if he ever did anything for you or gave you something you ended up paying it back 10 times over fulfilling requests from the BIL. In this case, your friend got to provide space, electric, blades, and quiet over the course of 10 years for the privilege of a deal on the table saw. ;~)
