So I had some time to fiddle with my T/S the other day getting it dialed in. It's an 80's model Craftsman contractor saw. I got a dial gauge, attached it to a block of wood, marked the blade, and got it within .001 (if I'm reading my gauge right). Pretty tolerable I reckon.However, I noticed my blade had a wobble to it, so I thought I'd check that out too. I lined it up with my mark, and as I spun it, this is the highest reading I got:

It would jump around a little, and actually go -.002, then 0 back out as I got back to my mark. Took the blade off and checked the arbor. Only went .002 I rotated it. I did notice however that when I would grab the pulley to move it, I could push it in (from the pulley) .005 and pull it back to the -.002 readings I was getting on my blade.

So is there something inside the arbor that can be done to fix this play?

Thanks for any info...
