    Where are you located? I might be interested in the package as is if you were within reasonable distance.

    If you part it out - i think those wings will fit my JET saw - same model with stamped wings. i might have some interest depending on where you are, i suspect shipping would be pretty costly. Sawstop is on my list but just never get to pull the trigger. My saw is starting to have similar issues to yours but still works and is safe to use, for now!

    I have basically the same saw. Mine was purchased in the early to mid 90's. When I upgraded to a nicer saw, I had the same basic questions that you are having.
    In the end I kept the saw, and I have always been glad I did. It acts as an outfeed table for my other saw, and I still use for crosscuts, when the other saw is setup for rips. I also use it to cut pressure treated wood, lexan, plastic and aluminum, materials I do not want to put through my other saw. I've also moved it outside when I was doing some renovating on my porch.
    In the end it is up to you, but having a "junker" saw for nasty work, really isn't that bad of position. My lift mechanism was also messed up, until I took the whole thing apart and realigned it. I used to just take the blade off when not in use and not mess with the raise mechanism.
