Hi all, I'm shopping for a used table saw for furniture making. I'm a hobbyist but I've been frustrated in the past with the inaccuracy of hobby-level machines, so I'm searching for a higher-end machine with a used price tag.
I saw this saw come up in my local classifieds. From what I've been told this saw predates 1988 (the date when the current owner was gifted it) and in 1995 the motor was rewound. It hasn't been run since the late 90s, there is currently no cord on the motor so I can't test it or verify what works. Owner claims the fence is good and the table is flat. As you can see from the pictures, its missing a few cover plates on the base. I've heard good things about old Delta Unisaws but not being able to test it makes me leery...
Can anyone offer some opinions on this deal, whether or not its worth taking a risk on this saw?
