Keith, is that the saw you were asking about (to purchase) some time back? If yes, how's it working out?

Yes, we ended up buying it.   Although it's a 1.5 HP, same as my Unisaw, it does tend to bog down.   Haven't been able to tell if a belt is slipping or the motor is bogging down.   

 

Having a 52 in rip fence and a newly built outfeed table (what I was working on in the photo) is a big improvement over the old one.  Hopefully no one will have to freehand cut a full sheet of plywood and no one will have to catch the outfeed and pull it out of alignment -- things that always bothered me.

First day back at work after a week off.  I need another week people!!!

Looks like they have the dust collection figured out, ha, ha. As far as power goes a 1 1/2 hp saw should be enough if hooked up to the correct amount of electricity.

It takes a week to recover from a week off.

Just put it on the schedule and tell the little woman you are taking vacation

It's been so long, I forgot how to read a schedule...or a calendar. If it weren't for the computer, I wouldn't know the day or date. 

Thank goodness my weekly pill containers are labeled. But then, there's two 'T's and two 'S's to confuse me. 

If it wasn't for light or dark I wouldn't know if it was Day or Night.

 I know when its Thursday, my favorite butcher sends out a Throw Back Thursday email.

Curb find base cabinet, a sheet of plywood and some leftover 2x4 stock.   Lots of screws.  For the theater set shop.   The saw is a new one, I like the 12" model.   Shop supervisor worried that a slider would be too dangerous for some of the volunteers we get.  ("Do I just cut on the pencil line?")

Free is always a good price.  Refitted this cabinet I found at a dumpster to go under my TS at the time.  Works good, just in new location in shop now.
