Bought a Kity 613 to fix 😳

[Woodwork Journey Dean]

So I have a problem as it turns out. I hate seeing old machines getting into land fills and have had moderate success with most things (other than aRexon table saw).

But today I spent a whole thirty quid on a Kity 613 with a broken top wheel

I spoke to a few companies that do spares, for this (same as Scheppach Basato 3) but you can’t buy replacement wheels in the UK, so I’ll be trying out a few options including 3D printing one if I can design it!

Will need tyres, fence, blades etc but I’m up for the challenge!

Should be easy enough to get a piece of ally welded in, then hand finish it to shape.
Rather than a whole replacement.

If you can score another busted 613 with a good top wheel, you can assemble one good frankensaw from the two and probably at a very fair price. You'll even have some spare parts to list on ebay.
Socket/switch, blade guides, guard, lower wheel, motor, plastic door, top knob, table, trunnions might all sell even if you can't fix the wheel.
Good on you !
