Just wandering if anyone uses or remembered this from Shopsmith
Sawsmith 2000
This machine was ahead of its time, and that’s probably why it didn’t catch on. It was a 1½ HP enclosed base table saw which could also perform the function of a radial arm saw. The saw blade moved beneath the wood, rather than over it, which made it safer than a typical radial arm saw. This machine was only in production for a short period of time (1985-1987).
