Todays shop time.

There's something you don't often hear of often, a Unisaw taking a dump!

They are about as reliable as a saw can be!

Pat - right, as evidenced by the usual price

Rob, that was absolutely the shortest version of the PO's story - only REAL problem with the saw itself was a seized motor - the "paul harvey" version included an acrimonious divorce, custody battle, copious quantities of horses and goats, relocation, etc - by the time I listened to the whole thing, I was amazed that the man could utter one coherent sentence

In fact, if I didn't already have the PM66 AND a vintage 12" craftsman table saw I could've come home with the Unisaw (short table, no extensions) and STILL been under $100 (plus cost of a motor) - betting somebody else got lucky... Steve

I should pay more attention to Craigslist but don't have the patience to sort through the junk and the miserable photos.

Me too - and then you have to be the first one to see it.

I have two Unisaws and a Huss, I LOVE my Unisaws!!

I bought one new and I paid $100.00 for the second one, both still work like new.

HTC ***-138 Outfeed Roller System For Table Saws - Infeed Outfeed Roller Tables - Amazon.com

last year on CL for $40, brand new; owner's Unisaw took a dump before he mounted the extension and he scrapped the whole idea, just wanted the extension out of his basement.

The downside - someday installing it on my PM66 may make it to the top of the project list ... Steve

WOW! Exactly what I could use on my Unisaw... and it folds down for storage... perfect! Let me know if it doesn't make it to the top of your list. I will drive down, pick it up and triple your money!

Surprised there aren't more posts here due to quarantining... I know I am getting a lot of shop time in lately.

Finally added hot/cold running water and a nice deep stainless steel sink w/ custom cabinet. Decided to match my drill press cabinet that I park next to sink when not in use. My homemade tablesaw sled with miter attachment came in handy in wrapping the drawer fronts with walnut.

Yep me too. And it is raining also. Got the tablesaw chores out of the way, now finally replacing the last of the fluorescent fixtures with LEDs. I get a lot of use out of the old HF rolling scaffold but these days I add safety chains. My balance and also bounce-ability not what it used to be.

I put in hot water and a big sink about 8 years ago very nice!

Good plan with the safety chains.

I will have to spend a little time on my woodworking skills someday.

Nice work
