Cutting cherry is one of my favorite things. It smells good, peels well green, looks and sells well after drying.
Note, however that it does not get along well with cast iron. You can cover the tablesaw with cardboard and keep it protected unless you look for that pencil that's in the miter gauge groove and don't pay attention to what drops from the hair on your arms when you lift the cardboard. Two stray curls make two dark shadows on the iron when cleanup starts a hour later.
Watch those acid woods, brush the curls off your arms, and check before you re-cover the iron. Everybody remembers to brush off the bandsaw, right?
