Striperman36- Yep they're a pain to set up. Plus,I've got shims and such under the tilt table etc.(I hate tilt table saws). Like I said, I get by with it. I could go on for a bit but I wont. Bottom line, if you have limited space in your garage or pocket book a guy could do worse, esp. if you go the used route.
I usually get to the speed control before it sticks. Even if I don't, belts are cheap and easy to find. But the best part is, there's no solid-state rectifier to soil it's shorts nor is there a DC motor that frys it's aluminum-wound armature when it stalls(sorry, bad memories). Again, it aint great but it aint awful neither.
Thanks much guys for the website, really appreciate it.
