you asked , so here is the way to do this ..to start this ” cut and switch ” proses ,figure out your width of stock , by laying out your circle , and deviding it into as many ’ pie pieces ’ as you like , and as many concentric circles as you want .at the edje of the inner circle , measure the width of the ’ pie crust ’ , and rip your wood wider than this ,as it needs to be cut later to final size .and make somewhat longer for the same reason ..this is a sl...

Hi guys,
The helmet cam I ordered came in today. I used it for this video.
It’s not made for indoors and the sound quality isn’t as good as the iPhone either but it does work.
Yesterday after putting the motor back together I cleaned all gummed up sawdust stuck to the inside of the blade shroud. It was a lot of work but it is ready for painting now. Maybe I’ll do that tonight… but I doubt it.
I need someone to tell me what the best thing is to clean that gun...

I decided to take the Unisaw home today since it was disassembled and reassemble it there.
The only problem is I have no room in the garage.
I may not get to work on my project as often because just getting to it will be a project.
First I had to move every in my half of the garage out to the driveway. I keep everything mobile.
I got my work bench cleaned off. I set my Unisaw motor there since changing the bearings will be my next project.
I had to temporarily assemble the saw ...

Today I finally got a chance to work on my Unisaw again. I wasn’t really sure what I was doing (like I needed to tell you that) but I got it done.
Relax.
I know there are a lot of videos here but most are less than one minute. I just watched the whole thing in about in a little over 20 minutes.
Please feel free to comment. I need to know what I’m doing right and what I could do better.
We will learn together.
Removing the blade shroud.

In yesterday’s video I rechecked the runout on my arbor and blade after cleaning them. I was concerned because the runout at the blade was .003”. Turns out that’s not too bad.
I couldn’t stand not knowing so I did the math.This is a scaled drawing I did in AutoCAD. Point A represents the bottom edge of the arbor flange. Point B is a point .001” out from the top edge of the arbor flange. Point C represents the top edge of the blade. I extended a line from poi...

Hi All,
Since I will have to work late tonight and tomorrow night, I went over on my lunch hour and double checked the runout after cleaning the arbor.
Then I checked it with a blade mounted too!
Oh, the exciting news is that I ordered a helmet cam from amazon.idiots (I’m only kidding, I love them now).
Rechecking the arbor runout after cleaning.
Checking the blade runout.
Enjoy!

I stumbled onto Lumberjocks while looking for inspiration to build a Tablesaw Workstation, something I’ve been meaning to do for 15 years or so. I have a Powermatic 64 Artisan saw and it has been on the original metal stand since I bought it. I added a router table to the right extension wing and put casters under it to supposedly make it easy to move around the shop (garage) but the weight of the router table made it seriously off balance and moving it often was a struggle. So I set o...
