Good day
I think that almost all the TS's are coming from the factory "almost" aligned so, I'm using this procedure to "fine tune" the factory "almost"...
As you'll see, I'm not using any Hi-Tech nor Lo-Tech instruments because every blade has some run-out and flutter and I think that the blade itself "knows" the best if it's aligned or not.
I'm just "listening" what the blade it "telling" me and correcting accordingly...
With this method, all the "Arbor run-out", "Blade run-out" and "Blade fluttering" are "included" in the test (I call it "Dynamic test").
The test must be done with the blade at "full up" position.
The "Test piece" should be of MDF
Toooooo the pics.......

On this pic (and the next one), I'm showing the blade stationary which is not the case.
You should push the test piece past the blade while the blade is running at normal speed and listen to the sounds...
