There might be a good reason they aren't popular anymore. Safety and accuracy being the foremost concern.

It depends on what kind of projects you're working on. Both are good tools but are used for entirely different jobs. It's handy to to have both but neither is an essential tool. If you have a 3x21...

Fire rated drywall is marked with an 'X' and is 5/8 inch thick in most cases. The paper on fire rated drywall contains a flame retardant that standard drywall does not have. Most building codes do...

You may never see a saw of this caliber at that price again. Definately go for it and hope it's not already gone.

It looks like they use bags instead of pleated filters. Bags will never pass the air volume that pleated filters do. I'd hesitate to spend that much money on what appears to be an inferior product.

All good tips but you should also lube the screw with bee's wax or other good lube before driving screws into hardwood. Bar soap works in a pinch but it can cause the screws to rust and make them...

Wood Werks Supply?

I have the Shop Fox and it does a good job for me. I don't experience burning on most woods even with the higher rpms. One real plus is that the Shop Fox has a long handle that gives good leverage...

Don't call, go to the website and enter the model number of your saw. My saw is older than yours and it was included in the recall. The new table is included as well as an infinitely better blade...

I'm really glad I asked this question, because I had no idea there was so much to learn. The compressor has a 1.5 HP motor and it can be wired for 240 volts, so I'll give serious consideration to...

Thank you gentlemen. I have a better idea now on how to make this happen.
:)

You might have to go to this link and click on Service/Support tab, then select Operators Manuals and enter 1645-0 for the model number. The site apparently doesn't allow you to go directly to that...

I have a Generac 4000EXL generator that has a 120/240 volt AC, 20 amp locking receptacle. The receptacle accepts a NEMA L14-20 plug (included with the generator). Instructions state to use a 4-wire...

The accessory guard will prevent the blade guard from being thrown off of the saw in the event of a kick back. I had this happen once using the old style guard and the sight of the guard flying...

I would not recommend this saw at any price because these poor quality RAS's are difficult keep properly aligned. Also, the blade guard on this one has no barrier between the user and the blade...

If you're going to buy a new saw - I would do it now! Prices are going nowhere but up because of the steady decline in the value of the dollar and the high cost of shipping due to fuel prices. That...

I used a six inch Craftsman for twenty-five years and it served me well. You don't have to worry about the speed - it will leave a clean, smooth cut as long and the knives are sharp and properly...

When ripping on the RAS the blade is rotating up into the work from the bottom of the work piece and the tendency is to lift the work piece. If the work isn't held down securely to the table it can...

If the exterminator doesn't know, then I'm stumped too. Are these critters destructive? The name sounds like the might like to eat paper or even sawdust. Possibly a good cleaning with then keeping...

I have a Craftsman RAS that I bought in the mid-seventies and recently added the new table and guard the comes from Emmerson Electric as part of the RAS recall. I like the new guard and I think it's...

Do you mean plunge saw?

I have one that's been through two switches. As long as the pressure shutoff part of the switch is working, you can plug the compressor into a switched outlet and turn it on and off using the switch...

Read the reviews at Amazon - they should be helpful.

I bought the Denali 10" 40/60 combo pack on March 28th. for $21.61. It was a deal that I couldn't pass up. Today the blades are $43.75 - still a pretty good deal. I haven't used either blade yet,...

I'd be interested in that one, but I generally go for tools that sit on the floor. I really don't care for the ones that have to be wall mounted.:D
