Back in the fall of 2014 one of my neighbors was moving and set this old tablesaw out for trash pickup and being the scavenger I am it wound up at my house.
It sat out behind my shop for about six months. It was already in pretty rough shape when I moved it to the house and sitting outside under a sheet of plastic all winter didn’t do it any favors.
I tore it apart with plans to refurb it and put it to use but I wound up picking up an old 113 12” saw and started using that one instead. All the parts for this one wound up setting in a pile for the past five years until I gathered everything up last week. The arbor tilt on my 12” saw was always a bit touch and go but two weeks ago it jammed and I discovered that several teeth were missing from the pinion gears so I had a choice, find parts to fix the 12”, put the old 10” together and use it or buy a new saw. I did a little shopping for a new machine but this little thing called “unemployment” made me a little nervous about spending $1,000 plus on a new machine. So the 10” refurb is under way
