Machines online

Greetings,
I have checked out the table saw and router table and can certify they are in working order and can be considered online. The router base took a little adjustment but now moves up and down smoothly.
The blade on the saw is a general purpose blade (40 teeth) which may be a bit ragged for plastics. I would recommend something with about 80 teeth for better cutting. The saw does have a riving knife but no saw guard.

The bandsaw needs a throat plate but looks otherwise ready to go. Blade wise I think we can use what we got.

The saw and the router should be considered RED category items and some kind of safety protocol should be set up for them. cheers!

Thanks Nick, I’ll look at getting another guard & a finer blade for the table saw.

Thanks for doing this!

I looked up the model of table saw. Here is the link:
table saw
It doesn’t show the blade guard on this drawing but doing a search within the model brings up a 3 piece assembly for it. It’s over $100. they must be crazy.
