Thought it would be better to post here rather than start a new thread. A few questions for the guys who have worked on T-17s. One, did all saws come standard with the sliding table? How does the beam attach to the saw chasis? The one im looking at does not have the sliding table attached to the saw, but im assuming its nearby in the same storage facility. Two, how difficult is it to work on these machines? Ive redone several unisaws from the ground up and a PM72, which i assume are child's play compared to this machine. Im up for a challenge, but i also dont want to get myself into a fight that is far beyond my abilities. Are parts still available, or are you up the creek without a paddle if you need something?
