If you're in a big enough city look for a maker / hacker space.

Pumping station 1 in Chicago is one of the bigger places. It has like a half dozen table saws for 65$ a month. That's on top of 3d printers, other woodworking shit. Place is fucking huge. There's a virtual tour on their website. Just cool to look at all the shit even if you're not in Chicago. Gives you an idea of what a maker space can be.

Otherwise, some wood shops rent out time.

Either way is a great way to build a network and get started.
