In Response To: Re: table saw question (John Monfoe)

Say John, I have one of those old Craftsman table saws, all cast-iron, etc. with the little brass adjustable exact-i-cut guides, the whole shebang.

My saw is woefully out of tune, but I can't get enough rotation out of the blade mounting stock to make the blade perfectly parallel to the miter slots. I probably need to disassemble everything and see if I can machine in some more adjustment.

One of the guides on my blade lift/lower rod is broken...do you have any idea if Sears still has replacement parts or service on these older saws?

thanks,

Shawn
