Hey Joe, (and anyone else using this jointer) now that you have had it awhile how is it holding up? I am seriously considering one myself.
Thanks.

Very nice work.
I have one wall in my lvnrm with a fireplc that is very much like that one and I have been wondering how to design some builtins around it.
You have given me a jumpstart on ideas....

Very nice job. I have been wanting to do some nice boxes like that. Thanks for the inspiration.

Cheers,

Sweet table there. Good job my friend. :D

Just finished a changing table for my infant daughter. The changing box is removable with a few screws in the back so when she is older she can us it as a toy/stuff shelf.
This is my first project...

I can't wait until part 3.

Well guys, I did it.
I managed to create an insert plate that works great.
I made this one out of MDF first to make sure it was going to work and it does the job quite well.
Here are some...

I just went to the Rockler store and bought a couple of planks of purpleheart wood. I am going to try and use this to make my own inserts and see how it works.
Wish me luck. :rolleyes:

I hammered out the old insert last night. While it will never be level again, i may have got it to the point that I can use it as a template.
So my next question is... if i get some of those...

Bill,
That is close, althought not exact. I would appreciate it if you would send me a template if you think it will work for me.
Here are some photos of my saw and the insert...

Thank you for all your help.
The Mod.# is 1157167.
Unfortunately I cannot find one that fits. Even the sites that claim "Vintage Craftsman" isn't the right one.
The plate is 12.5" X 3" and 3/16"...

I have a very old Craftsman bench table saw. It still cuts true and there is nothing really wrong with it. That said; Yesterday I had an accident and a piece of wood kicked back on me. No damage done...
