I liked watching this. Not too many people get down underneath. I'd like to see more details of worm gear and so on?

Absolutely. It's a little hard to get in there to see the inner workings of the table saw with a video camera, but you can download a free article on the subject with more photos here: www.woodsmithplans.com/plan/table-saw-tune-up/

I set the blade to be parallel to my miter slot and this was VERY fiddly and took several tries but I could not believe what a difference that made! I also upgraded the belt and this helped having my old Craftsman 113.XXXX to be running like new. Keeping the ability to do a 45 degree tilt to the blade is much more problematic for me and I have pretty much given up on doing this and use jigs to get that 45 angle cut.

Good chamfer bit in the router table does a better job.

thank you

An option to the brass brush is your tooth brush that you should have replaced three year ago? Great video. I like your method of checking that the mitre slot is parallel to the blade. I have a Shopsmith and use a digital angle gauge to set the table to 90 degrees to the blade.

Thanks! Glad you found the video helpful.

I'm a long-time subscriber to both your KZread channel and your magazine. I really enjoy the videos. I have one problem: When you promise something, you need to deliver on that promise. When you say there will be links in the description, there should be links in the description. I followed both the published links, and neither took me to the items used in the video.

Where do you buy the flat referencing disk/dummy blade?

Wish you'd show the table adjustment underneath.

Your framing square must be more accurate than most. I use a plastic drafting triangle clamped to my miter gauge. Very accurate.

I little maintenance or have a hook for a hand... Can i have a few minutes to think it over?

The blade on my Sawstop would not retract fully. The culprit was saw dust build up at the blade down stop. Saw dust removed - problem solved.

Surprised you used a framing square. Why not a precise square?

I had just finished doing mine today. Worse than I expected it to be.

After we shot this video, I went home and did the entire tune-up on my own table saw and couldn't believe the difference it made.

Thank you! Clear and helpful. Do you use a blade lube? If so, which do you like?
