They have two bushings per pack that fit 1/2" to 5/8". Never ordered from Menards online before, but the price was good and the shipping was quick. I decided on a 12 piece saw bushing kit from Menards for $1.99. It might be a bit annoying to have to secure two clamps, but I might pay that price for straight cuts. Make a second C clamp which would secure against a rear rail. Add some kind of angled support piece on the right side of the fence. As a temporary solution I can use a pipe clamp or a table top magnet to prevent the tail end from wandering. I currently do not have any sort of rear hook. The T square part that slides along the rail is secured to the fence part with screws. I notice that if I push with moderate pressure on the tail end that it will tilt a bit to either side. Overall this fence has worked quite well. I got a 5 star plastic knob from Ace Hardware and fastened it to the bolt with a washer, nut, and a generous amount of caulk to fill the threads so it will always turn the bolt and not spin off. I also had to redo the knob on the end of the bolt. The bolt pushes up against a Jazzmaster style control plate to give it something sturdy to push against other than the plywood. All I want is to be able to lock it down and be confident that it is parallel to the miter slot every time. I made a C clamp which has a T nut and a bolt to push the fence against the plywood rail. I put a bit of melamine particle board for the face. Then I used plywood to make a big T square. First I removed the front rail and put in its place a plywood block instead. It was a bit wobbly and capable of being locked down firmly, yet out of square. Overall though the fence was problematic. There is a tension screw under the handle which can set how hard the handle pulls against that back hook. Then there is a little hook at the back end which pulls against the rear table top. It runs along a metal bar on the front which it locks onto. My first order of business was the fence. I believed I would need to put some elbow grease into getting it tuned up, but I felt it could pretty quickly surpass the alternatives. Cast iron top with a belt driven motor for 1/3 the price seemed like a good deal to me. So when I saw this bad boy I was pretty pleased. I did some research and was led to believe that the modern $150 entry level table saws aren't anything special. Haven't really tried any beefy hardwood yet.įor context, this is my first table saw. I was able to cut 2x4's or plywood easily. I currently have it fit with a 7 1/4" blade, but I believe it could go up to 8". It has a belt driven motor that hangs off the back with a Westinghouse label. Central Specialty Division in Michigan, USA. Some research has led me to believe it is possibly from the 1960's and was made by King-Seeley Corp. Says Craftsman on the front with a model number on the back of 103.21041. I bought it in Summer 2017 on Craigslist for $50. I have an old table saw that I'm bringing back to life, and I wanted to document, share, and possibly enlist some help in the process.
