Hey guys I see a lot of folks looking for these older saw, and thought I'd see if anyone is interested in this one. It's posted on CL in Dallas, under tools. Its the 9" version on a pedestal stand, and looks to be in good shape. Guy is asking $200...

Thank you! I made the panel for the dust collection (which is just my shop vac) from some 16 ga. flat steel I had leftover from a welding project last year. I made a press brake from some old bed frame angle iron to bend it. YoutTube DIY press brake video was my instructor. :-) I did replace...

I completed and reassembled the saw this afternoon. Got the fence installed and have made a few cuts to check and adjust the square. I'm pretty pleased with the end results, and the saw is really a strong saw. Attached a few photos. I do still have the original fence if somebody out there is...

Thank you Jay. I’ll check the exploded parts lost vs what I see on my saw while it is still out of the cabinet.

Okay I have another question I hope you can help me answer. On my saw the blade arbor seems to have an 1/8” play side to side. The play is in the back at the height adjustment pin which has a large retaining ring and washer on one side. My concern is that the blade would possibly move 1/8” and...

Happy Easter guys, I am posting the photos of the hand wheels after filling the back cavity with epoxy. Also a photo of the epoxy I used, which I got at the blue box store and have used for several projects before with good success.

I’ll post the photos Sunday when I get back to the house, they don’t seem to post from my phone! The filler seemed to significantly strengthen the handles. Thanks!

Very nice! Great job! I hope mine turns out that well. One thing I did yesterday was repair and shore up my hand wheels. After reading all of the threads about the difficulty in finding replacements I filled the back cavity with a clear epoxy from Devcon. One of mine was bent and cracked. I’ll...

Thank you. I have an auto body buddy who has offered to paint for me, spraying the pieces in his paint booth if I supply the paint. I have only found the Champagne Mist in spray cans so far, is it available in quarts? I can always try to get Sherwin Williams to match it with an Industrial...

Thank you guys, I'll check that model and see if I can get the height right to stay with my existing outfeed tables. I have scoured the OWWM boards and this one for the gold paint color, which I read in a post, but have been unable to find the post again. I remember the post containing several...

Would it make you guys feel better if I said I misplaced the decimal? (I didn't, but I'll say I did) Got it torn down today into basically 3 sections. Hoping to get it cleaned well, lubricated, and back to well functioning. I have seen a few posts on casters for this but most folks have...

Can't fault a guy for finding a good deal! :-) I honestly had no idea it was worth any more than that, and found this site giving me a heads up of the true value. It was valuable to me because under the rust and dings is a beautiful piece of equipment. I've been using a 70's model 113...

Good evening guys, and I'm really happy I found this site. I too am restoring an early 60's model Craftsman 103.22450 I was able to pick up at an estate sale store for $25.00. They had planned to sell it for scrap metal and I couldnt let that happen. Got it home today and plugged in the motor...
