    There are RAS's and RAS's. I used to have a RIDGID unit, same as the contemporary Craftsman saw. It was prone to climb over the cut. I didn't like it, and after it shot towards me one last time, it...

    Longarm radial arm saw. A 5 minute job. A table saw is not the right tool for that, IMHO.

    I don't like the Reeves drives on the VS tools that have them. I remotored my 1460 with a 1HP 3phase motor with VFD. If you already have a 1460, which is highly regarded, that might be a route for...

    Well, naturally. It's your train set and you've worked hard for decades at it. Not to worry, I'll buy Shop Fox :)

    I've had a few Grizzly & Shop Fox tools, and generally find them to be excellent. I just HATE the paint job! The Polar Bear and Anniversary versions address this, and obviously ShopFox. But the...

    I get what Doug is saying, I've had the same. It's nothing to do with rotating pictures on his computer.

    If you take a series of pictures, some of which are with the camera vertical, others...

    Have you got a small bench/table/cart? Get rid of that, put the baby on wheels and replace the cart. Then, that day when you think you need three saws for a job, you'll have it. Job done.

    Mel, you've just proved my point. Imperial measurement is widely accepted in the US. July 4th is specific to the US.

    I'm not lobbying either way, as I said, I grew up with both. I used metric...

    I use both Imperial and Metric, I am of the generation that grew up with both. Whichever is the most appropriate for the task. The maths of it are absolutely elementary, whichever system one uses,...

    I used to have a TS3660, almost the same. It did well for me. I made a simple router table wing out of laminated 2x2, drilled a hole in it for the router bit, and three holes for the mounting screws....

    Amazon. There were only a couple left when I ordered. I can't use it just yet, as I am in the throes of building my router cabinet on the end of my table saw, but I needed to order it to see how big...

    I used 2" and a reducer at the guard. Works fine. The reducer also acts as a quick-connect, although that wasn't the original intention.

    Grizzly/ShopFox casters from Amazon. Inexpensive and well made. Huge range. "Free" delivery (if you have Prime).

    Flatness is king, as I have discovered.

    I wouldn't bother. It doesn't look like there's enough blades on it.

    The '03 truck is worth a residual value, as long as it runs, that is a bit higher than the scrap value. That is because the useful life of it has been worked out. For every 15-year old F-150 you see...

    The reality is that it is worth what someone is willing to pay for it. If they are looking at buying it and keeping it for 20+ years, then it doesn't really matter what it costs, within reason. If on...

    Can I vote 4 times? I have bought 4 table saws since 2006, the latest being a Sawstop.

    The saw is a Sawstop 3HP PCS. I'm sure it is aligned correctly. I'm not saying I have a problem, just that the WWII doesn't stand out too much from the run of the mill blades I have.

    You're bang on the money there Phil. I moved to a bigger shop, and realised that the 4" ductwork I had before just wasn't cutting it. That much was evident when I disassembled it for the move and got...

    I have one (40T TK WWII), but to be fair I was a little underwhelmed by it. It is certainly a nice blade, but for 3x the cost of the blades I had been using (RIDGID Titanium, Freud Diablo), the cut...

    And the step after that is to get a bigger dust collector with 6inch or larger intake. And there's a lot of steps after that :)

    The table saw should be easy to contain the dust, the router needs a...
