    Hello from Edinburgh

    Been here a wee whiley now but want to post in the "Wanted" section and cant so seeing if posting this will give me access. Hello everybody, I'm a 20 year old hobbyist woodworker, who juggles woodworking with University among many other things. I'm currently trying to fit out my new "shop"...

    Wadkin ags 10 Lock Nut

    The one in the link if you look closely appears to have standard looking thread (triangular). I won't manage to get back to my shop for a couple days. So won't manage to get any numbers off it unfortunately. I have the spindle with me though.

    So I believe the nut I need is off the older manual for the wadkin 10 ags. I'll attach a pic here. Just packing it up right now to send off to John.

    Thank you. Need to get the number off my saw first before messaging them but will do if they aren't happy with a return. I've given basic info to him already In my initial email. Will send RM SP. Not replied after his first email back but only been a few hours so just my impatience. Fingers...

    Wadkin ags 10 Lock Nut

    Yeah I've been looking around for one. However I did email John Mills as mentioned before and have received a pretty concise "I should be able to sort that out for you". So hopefully he will manage to help me. But will continue looking for a spare spindle in the mean time.

    Wadkin ags 10 Lock Nut

    Unsure what my next move will be from here. Will leave it for a couple days and have a think. The saw Is in realy good condition and ive already put quite a few hours into tidying it up. But not sure I want to commit to buying a whole other saw just for a nut. Thanks for the input everyone.

    Wadkin ags 10 Lock Nut

    Just arrived. Gutted. Thread appears to be ACME. I could maybe try force it on but don't want to ruin the thread. Thread onto the starting thread but them just won't go on any further.

    Wadkin 10 AGS rip fence replacment

    I'm honestly not too fussed about originality. I have the model with the fence that attaches front and back. I'm having a little bit of trouble with the rod that goes down the middle of it. If I have it tight enough. The fence won't move back and forward easily. But if I have it too loose there...

    Wadkin ags 10 Lock Nut

    Yeh I completely agree. This wadkin was to be my own first table saw, after moving out another shop. However still need to replace the start stop box. Get it wired in to 3 phase, replace fence, fit it in my shop, make a cross cut sled, sort out riving knife assembly. Contemplating buying one of...

    Wadkin ags 10 Lock Nut

    Thank you! I'll wait for this nut to arrive and then see if it fits. Will decide after whether I'm willing to risk posting my parts incase they get lost. But would be very keen to have a spare nut and to make sure nobody has to go through this much frustration for a little nut.

    Wadkin 10 AGS rip fence replacment

    Did you ever get a new fence? I'm looking for one right now. Not too happy with the amount of play in the original or how much work it will be to tune and keep tuned. I've heard good things about the Scott and sergeant one but for 400 I'm wondering if I should just add an extra 200 and get incra.

    Wadkin ags 10 Lock Nut

    Yeh cheeky bug**rs indeed. If it is the right one I'll see if I can find I machine shop to replicate. Also If anyone is looking for a nut like this in the future shoot me an email at [email protected] I've quite literally put about 16 hours of solid research into finding out about it and...

    Wadkin ags 10 Lock Nut

    Holy smoke thank you soo much. I'm not 100% sure that is the right nut. But it was under the wadkin 10 ags section and I'm hoping special means that it's the funny square threading. There was only 1 left in stock so I've bought it up scared that it'll be gone by the time Customer service has...

    Wadkin ags 10 Lock Nut

    From what I've heard machining a new spindle is alot easier relative to machining a new bolt. But I'm pretty illiterate in the machining department and am scared I'll mess things up. So really leaning towards sourcing a bolt at this point.

    Wadkin ags 10 Lock Nut

    If you could give him a message that would be great. Was realy hoping I could source a nut for it instead having to machine a new spindle that seems to be a lot more difficult at the moment.

    If you could that would be amazing. Pitch says 0.08 inches and diameter 0.625.

    Wadkin ags 10 Lock Nut

    Contacted them a while ago. Can't remember their exact answer but I believe it was along the lines that is was too old for them to have any info on and threads changed from time to time. I haven't yet bought a pitch checkers but believe that they wouldn't work as it is a square thread and i...

    Hi fellas! First time posting here! Been slowly restoring this wadkin ags 10 saw and now got too actually putting a blade on it. Trouble is I have absolutely no idea what thread this is or where to get one. I know for sure it is a reverse thread. Suspect it is imperial and also suspect it is...
