Well I kinda fell into a deal for an ICS that had been in a building when the roof collapsed on it. The left wing and fence rails are toast, the cabinet a bit beaten, and it obviously saw water damage. Well upon disassembly, the massive trunnions are fine, the arbor is within a thousandth, and just had general surface rust everywhere. I spent 4 days with an oilstone on main table and right wing. I’m not planning on replacing the left wing, instead I’ll probably put on a slider. I’m refitting my original PCS 36” rails shifted to the edge of the main table-that will give me approx 47” of usable fence to the right of the blade.
Kudos to Sawstop tech support as they worked with me to get all the replacement electrical components, and of course a new 5hp single phase 240v motor to replace the original 3phase 480v motor. All in with the slider should end up totaling just north of 3 grand-about 50 cents on the dollar compared to new. It’ll make a great big brother to my PCS!
I’ll add pics to this thread as work progresses!
Cheers
Sean
