    Locally sourced vintage PM66 (my first and maybe last) with a 50" fence and 240V to the garage. :)

    I'd have to agree about the vintage of the saw. In fact, the first number on the serial number is a 6. The seller told me that the saw is a 1966 machine.

    I did test out the tilt and raise wheels...

    Good news! I just got an e-mail from the seller and he says he'll let the saw go for $800. Other posters have said that this sounded like a much more reasonable price. Do I bite?

    Thanks!

    I emailed the seller of the saw about the cost of a replacement motor. Hopefully he will realize why no one has bought it yet and drop the price down to a more reasonable $700-$800 bucks.

    The deal breaker has finally arrived... I have looked high and low for a motor that will work with this saw and can find nothing that costs less than around $400. That would put the price of the...

    Hmm... Maybe I should take a picture of my main box and post it here.



    I suppose I could just run a set of 240V outlets at regular intervals along the wall in addition to one or two on the...

    That's what I was thinking as well. And if I'd been thinking straight, I would have used the same wording you did! :)

    I was thinking of about 4-6 outlets per 120V circuit and I could add in a third or a fourth but my garage is pretty small, about 11'x23' or so. All great suggestions everyone! I really like the...

    Back in my early 20's I got a job at the local Home Depot to save money for a trip to South America. A few weeks after being hired I was moved from Floor and Wall to Electrical. In other words, I...

    Great points for sure. That's why I posted here in the first place! For that, I thank you all.

    From what I was told by the seller, the bottom of the table was machined first as a reference for...

    Great advice everyone. I did try to get the guy to go down to $800 but no go. The seller originally wanted $1,200! So $1,000 was as the best deal I could get from him. I am told that this saw was...

    I was told by the current owner that he replaced the arbor bearings and I would enjoy 'tweeking' my new tablesaw. :)

    This sounds like a good deal then? The motor should not be an issue from what I read. I am nervous about this as it is my first table saw...

    Hello all...

    I've been looking for a time on craigslist and elsewhere for a table saw, as I don't have one... this'll be my first. Anyhow, I came across a vintage '66 Powermatic that has been...

    Lol! Really! Especially since my hens would easily weigh out to about $5.00 a pound after all of the feed and time put into building them shelter! :D

    I need to hang some more doors and install drawer fronts before I take any more photos but I plan to have that done by this weekend and pics of some more finished work should be up soon.

    I gave a quick explanation a few posts up. ;) Barred rocks are great chickens, very mellow and like hanging out with people.

    All too true. I've had my kitchen in its current state for 3 months now with not much in the way of tidying up much less hanging some doors here and there. I guess that means that I need to buy a...

    Lol! That was the day that we demo'd the kitchen and we had the side door to the yard open. Our very curious barred rock decided to cruise in to check out the hub bub and decided to take a break in...
