Don Ellingson ... I/we've always called them Ball Transfer Slides. I'm sure somewhere the werd linear is used also. http://www.frantz-mfg.com/ezglider2.htm ...
Yep, all of the main castings begin with TCS. The main carriage which moves up and down is TCS-203. I just have no idea how in the heck a ten inch blade is...
One more thing, Keith: now that I'm looking at the "before" photos I took, there was a 7 1/4" saw blade mounted in it, and I remember wondering why it was in...
I am trying to reach Peter Goulet. He posted a picture of a table saw model 101.2401. It is the very saw I have been trying to resto. It was manufactured by...
... Don- Transfer bearings (as in ball transfer table) seems right. If you want some, I bought 20 from a fellow on Ebay who uses the name Bugbarn. I think...
Greetings all, and happy new year. Despite enjoying the three phase and casting quality discussions going on at the moment, I'd like to throw out a question...
... and Egan ... I see in ... inch only 36 ... I have a J. A. Fay 36"er and it has the patent dates of 1871 and 1874 cast into the frame. The only patent on...
Only 1/16 of wear? I've seen way worse, believe me, but that's another story when a teacher says: "Oh, by the way, the bandsaw has a little noise......" ...
Hi, You can use one of the plastic ceramic or steel repair materials and then grind it down in a lathe with a tool post grinder or very careful cutting with a...
Points well made Keith. I guess I'm just a little unisawed-out these days. Happy New Year, Glenn. ... From: Keith Bohn To: oldwwmachines@yahoogroups.com Sent:...
Well, I just fired up my Fay & Egan 12" #316 restoration jointer. The bearings were originally babbitt but the old boxes were converted to ball bearings...
I am the owner of an old 9" wood lathe manufactured by King-Seeley Corp for Craftsman. I am not sure how old it is and I am trying to find out. I do know...
...Or, A Cautionary Rotary Phase Converter Tale So, since last night was New Year's Eve, we were having a party at our house for 40 or so friends. One driving...
... #1 is my plywood cutting saw that backs up to a Delta 12/14 for part of the large table needed to cut plywood by myself. Oddly enough, this is the newest...

Couldn't stand it so I put the pics on the MS. I figured this is a rather common problem with 81's when they have problems, so everyone could see it. ...
... and you ... You were so close to the truth it was scary. ... It was my first Unisaw, bought it new. LVC and (later) a Bies. I read somewhere where Delta...
Jamie: What rod did you use? All I have is an electric welder and I'm assuming you used one as well. I know that when I weld and turn, the weld is rather...
... Robert, I used a mig welder with regular old mild steel wire and gas. I don't think it is critical as long as you can turn it, and carbide cutters don't...
That's good feedback. Hadn't considered MIG. Don't have one of those. My 7018 bubble-gum glops chip up my carbide cutters. I guess I'll have to get into MIG...
On Tuesday, 12/27/05, my son and I left Boise and headed east (yes, east) for San Diego. This time, we used his small 4X4 pickup rather than my minivan. The...
