I was just given a Craftsman 10" radial arm saw Model #: 113.197702 It has no manual and no table top. Can anyone tell me the correct thickness and size of the front table, fence, and back table? Thanks!

Manuals appear to still be available from Sears. So are the table parts, too... for over a hundred bucks plus tax and shipping. I'd go the same route you have in mind, and make my own.
The manual wouldn't help you with this, by the way. It doesn't give dimensions.
I have a Craftsman radial arm saw model 113.199250, which is substantially similar to yours (judging by the diagram at www3.sears.com).
Dimensions for mine are:
Front table 1" thick MDF, 40" x 18 1/4" Rear table 1" thick MDF, 40" x 6 5/8" Table spacer 1" thick MDF, 40" x 2" Fence 3/4" thick maple, 40" x 2"
If you can't find 1" thick MDF (and you won't at Home Depot -- check with cabinet shops, and the distributors that supply them), then use 3/4" MDF with
1/4" Masonite either above as a sacrificial top, or below as a shim. IIRC, you need the full 1" thickness, otherwise you can't lower the blade far enough to cut all the way through a board.
Glad to help -- hope these dimensions work with your saw.
STOP!!!!!!!!
Don't do anything except go to this website:

Thank you,
I could measure it (1", I think). Want one? Come get it. It comes attached to a RAS. It also has the safety recall hardware in its original box. It's all one deal.
I just received a Craftsman 10" RAS model 113.197206 without the table or the recall kit and I may be interested if you're not too far off and you still have it.
