TABLE SAW BLUES

[Mike Fletcher]

I have a 12" Craftsman tables saw and no matter hoe much I adjust it I can not get a square or consitant cut. Any Advise.

If you are really looking for a solution rather than just moaning (thoroughly understandable) you are going to have to be more specific. If your problem is only getting a square cut then tell us what you did with your miter gauge to assure that it is 90 degrees to the blads.

I read a long time ago in a woodworking magazine that some of these saws only problem was that the bolts that held the table down were too soft. Replacing them with a higher grade bolt often solved the problems. I am not saying it will work for you but it couldn't hurt to replace the table and trunnion bolts and see if that helps. max

Since all of your static adjustments seems to have been made and remade (I'll assume you've been doing it in accordance with the users manual), check the state of your arbor bearing. There should NOT BE ANY detectable side or end play. If there is -- even a minute amount -- replace it or have it replaced. A worn arbor bearing will permit the blade to wobble and cause the symptoms you described.

..who else could turn a verse like this, huh? *S*

Down the hall upstairs from me There's a girl I swear I never see I hear the ringing of her phone She must live up there all alone She hangs her clothes out on the line They're hanging there right next to mine And if the wind should blow just right She could be in my arms tonight

He was just here (London, Ontario). Missed him this time.. I'm sooo pissed off. Buy the DVD Live from West 54th.. he does a duet or two with Iris DeMent... priceless.

Dang, we're a buncha ol' hippies here, aren't we? :-)

I'm amazed that no one's mentioned this prime Prine:

Grandpa was a carpenter, he built houses, stores and banks. Chain-smoked Camel cigarettes, and hammered nails in planks. He was level on the level, shaved even every door. He voted for Eisenhower, 'cause Lincoln won the war.

I hang my head in shame...that song was even ON topic.

Gonna get me some Boone's Farm and dust off my turntable and do some Prine over the weekend...Maybe wash it all down with Rolling Rock.

'Tis been a while.
