My friend Stuart recently purchased an older Craftsman table saw with a broken handwheel.
The handwheel mates with a hexagonal nut to activate the tilt mechanism.
The plastic was split and did not grip the nut with enough force to work properly.
I dismantled it and mounted it on my lathe for the repair job.
Epoxy and hose clamps (along with duct tape) will fix just about anything!
