There's Something TERRIBLY WRONG With My Table Saw! Should I THROW IT OUT?! (Carpenter Discussion)
Power saws are expensive, and therefore the decision to get rid of one is not easy. But there are certain defects that I think just can't be dealt with.
For instance, my table saw has developed a prolonged BLADE ALIGNMENT ISSUE. The arbor/blade mount is slightly bent, which causes the cut to open up a bit at the back.
This problem gets compounded when I BEVEL the table saw blade. The blade kerf draws the board away from the fence badly at the back of the cut. This results in a flared cut--and it's also dangerous!
Blade alignment can be adjusted, but the table saw tends to walk itself back. For that reason, I probably have to get rid of it.
Also, my circular saw fell off a table and got pranged on the concrete floor. Now the blade guard won't operate smoothly--it gets trapped in the upper housing and won't spring back. This is a NO-GO ISSUE for me! I have to get rid of it.
When would you get rid of a power saw? Let me hear about it in the comments!
