Hey guys I am on here all the time, but don't post much. Anyway I wanted to see if anyone has any experience with a 12" tilt arbor Craftsman Table Saw Model # 351.22652. The guy had it sitting outside on a pallet under a tarp so the top will need to be derusted and oiled up, but apparently it works fine. No juice there to test it with, but the price is almost too good to pass up. Also made in Tiawan, which *****, but its older, so I'm hoping its not complete junk. Let me know if anyone has any info. Thanks

If it's the one I'm thinking of... it's going to take a decent amount of work to get her tip-top. Unfortunately it's "middle-aged". If it were truly old, the owwm.org folks could/would help with guidance and parts.
Yea I just checked owwm and found nothing....my other TS is a 50's king seeley which I love, but this one is a 70/80's overseas saw. Sears still carries parts too, but other then I can't find any info on the saw. 75 dollars is almost too goo to pass up though.
You probably won't find anything at OWWM because the site is dedicated to older machines that were manufactured in the USA. Foreign made machines are pretty much disallowed there.....thankfully.
Yes, $75 is almost too good to pass up..... but I'd pass on it. That's just me. The saw might be perfect for your needs, price range, and ability/desire to restore it to good working order.

The one I saw was $150ish in South Jersey. Good luck with it.
