New tablesaw...

[Steve Maskery]

I've won a new tablesaw on ebay:

It has flesh-sensing technology. Apparently the blood blocks up the intake filter and stops the blade.

Hey, it's got a blade guard, what more do you want?

 

[katellwood]

so what jigs are you going to use on that :shock:

 

[Wildman]

that looks interesting any idea of its original use? Large mitres maybe

 

[Steve Maskery]

I'm afraid I don't know. A friend with a particularly strange sense of humor (sic) sent it to me.
Never seen one with a circular table though.

It looks like a saw for cutting trusses, ie lots of bits of wood with an angled cross cut on them.

It looks like it has a foot pedal for bringing the blade forward.

Something like this

You need to send your saw to Wallace

Sorry Steve, that's not a saw it's a big sundial. :wink:

 

[SteveF]

I wonder if the whole inside rotates by that pedal?

the holes must be angle \ index markers

I think it's a site version of the type of thing Robin mentioned, but has lost its tables/roller stands.

You may have to use it as a sundial though, as that looks like a U.S. plug.

Make lots of dosh: Paint it black and lurex green and sell it as a prototype that was never put into production... can you get a a Systainer that size?

 

[Steve Maskery]

All good ideas.
Circular usually = rotatable, but I don't think it can be, how would that square (ha-ha) with that very short rip-fence?
Although, having said that, the fence can move fore and aft as well as in and out, so I guess that could be set out of the way of the blade at any rotation.

that looks like a U.S. plug

Nah, can't be American, it's got a guard.

 

[Eric The Viking]

It is rotatable - you can see the roller(s) at the bottom, running on a circular rail.

I think I have seen one of those before, it's the machine that was replaced by the one that made the those old vinyl records all those years ago. Looks in good nick. Bit unhappy about that mains lead, a chap could break his neck tripping over that. I'm ashamed of you Steve.
