For Sale Old tablesaw with impossible thread £70

[Woodwork Journey Dean]

PROJECT Tablesaw.

I believe this is an old Rexon RXW-10. I’ve posted about the thread on here previously as I restored it but got scuppered at the last bit with a proprietary arbor thread. I believe it’s got a thread of 5/8, left handed, Acme, and 12.7 - 13 TPI.

It is impossible to find a nut for the arbor which sucks, so it will need either a machinist to make one, or replacing the arbor with one that has an easier thread.

I have another tablesaw project under way so do not have the space for this one in my small workshop.

I’ve never been messed around selling stuff in marketplace as I have with this because it turns out nobody reads the adverts!

The motor works, only other thing I’ve done is 3D print a worm gear for the tilt function, replacing it with a metal one would probably be good.

£70 although if I take off the power button to use on my other project £50

Collection only near Norwich

As regards the nut, you could try here:- Industrial Fixings | Southend - South Essex Fasteners Ltd
I used to use them frequently when living in Essex and recall one day somebody at the counter asking for a very obscure thread size. The reply came back left or right handed sir.

Tried them. As I said though, I have another project now and this one is just taking up space

Your 12.7 x 13 equates to 1/2" x 13 tpi which is just common UNC (unified national coarse) an American thread ?

 

[redhunter350]

Since the machine is Rexon ?? it it almost certain the thread is metric i.e. 16mm x 2mm pitch
16mm = 5/8" [0.629"] and 12.7tpi = 0.o7874 = 2mm pitch [all +/- 0.001" or so] So really an easy task to make a nut !

 

[PDW125]

M16 /2mm left hand is a standard thread used on rose joints in motorsport - think I may even have some lying around if you want to try one ..?

 

[deema]

It’s a Trapizodial if it’s metric, a standard metric nut won’t work. Fairly easy to get, but not cheap.

 

[Jameshow]

Try Aximinster as they marketed the same saw as the ts10....
