Hello,
I was given a circa 1970 Sears Radial Arm Saw that I am not sure what to do with it. I researched it and it was recalled but there is no repair kit for it. My options are to keep it and use it as is or return the motor and get $100 for it. The saw is in working condition but has a light coat of rust on it as it has been sitting in a basement for 5 years and not used during that time.
I am a fairly newbie to woodworking and I already have a approximately
10 year old Ryobi 8 1/4 inch RAS that is more portable that this saw. Is this saw almost as good as the Sears?I am not sure if I should take the money and put it toward other tools, keep the saw for myself or sell it to someone else. Please let me know your opinion on the saw and what I should do.
Thanks.
