It is finally time, after months of work, to get some paint on this old cast iron table saw and start assembling.
After assembly, I did a quick test and it runs beautifully.

Paint job looks good. Good choice.
Some of those parts look brand new.
Absolutely beautiful result. You should be proud. I hope it gives you many years of joy. Bravo!
1. more grease oil, really when you think you have way to much you are close. 2. manufacture a dust collection insert for inside the saw as you will eventually want it, and right now is a good time.
Good choice for the colour scheme. Works well.
And well done on your first time restoration.
You do have to spend some time setting the saw up... blade, fence, etc. But once done, the saw is great. Fairly compact which is Nice th-cam.com/users/postUgkxXh-4_3-ZT1fFWP91ZV7iVqzElr0lEb-a I did get an Incra Miter Gauge which takes some setup as well. The stock miter gauge can be adjusted in the miter slot with a little painter's tape... this tightens up the side to side play a lot.
Looks fantastic! I bought a 1960 model of this saw and painted it metallic green and silver. It’s a real workhorse and nothing stops it. Built like a tank. Love it.
For someone who hasn’t done a restoration, I’d say you did a superb job!! Looks fantastic and great choice in the hammered finish.
Hey, hope you and yours are safe and well in these troubled times.
Outstanding job, looking forward to do that to my antique General table saw. Awesome video. Thank you.
This is looking fantastic. Great work!
I love recueing the old iron! Particularly interested in your riving knife set-up. Please document that and share with us firther!
You have brought that saw a new life, well done
Perfect color choice looks fantastic. Well done!!
Looking good!! Excellent restoration job.
Definitely the right choice for the colour scheme ... well done! have a like
That old saw looks new! Very nice.
Absolutely stunning. Appreciate the video!
Nicely done! Looking forward to how you reorganize your shop flow now!
Awesome job and great colour choice!
Great attention to detail, and it looks great.
I started to watch the restoration videos to see how you cleaned off rust, but ended up hooked, and watching until the saw was done. Great at explaining your process. Great finished product. Thanks for the inspiration.
Excellent job and I think the paint color is exactly right.
Great job! Looking forward to seeing it in action!
Looks like a new machine! Great work!
Awesome job! I like the color scheme and the hammered paint was a great choice.
Beautiful job! No changes.
Nicely done. Might I suggest a clear coat for the sign to prevent the bare metal rusting, a coat of pastewax or carwax on the table for rust prevention(oil will soak into the wood you're cutting and cause issues), and replacing the handles on the x and y with crank handles, as it will be faster and more comfortable to turn them
I think the sign was aluminium.
Great job...looks fantastic.
Brilliant! That looks amazing!
Awesome job, I purchased a vintage 27 inch bandsaw last fall for a song and a lot of luck and plan on restoring it to show room new. It runs great and is going to be a head turner when I'm done
Very nice Jean!
I just spent about 10 hours sorting out the riving knife support bracket (had to machine a new one) as my identical saw (AGS 10) did not have one.
As with you, this resto has taken me much much more time than anticipated, but am sure we will have solid saws that will still be good in another 50 years!
I am also looking at machining a new bracket. I have the original bracket but it is broken and doesn't seem repairable.
Very nice. Like the hammered paint scheme.
Mooi stukkie handewerk. Baie goeie kopie en restorasie.
Wow dit het baie mooi uit gekom. Amazing.
Looks really good. Love your channel.
Should you have done anything differently? YES! you should have purchased two table saws to restore so we could enjoy this series twice 😭😭😭😭
That paint finish came out phenomenally, thank you for introducing me to hammer finish paint.
Best woodshop channel on TH-cam. No one builds the stuff you do, the engineering is dope and I'm loving the restoration series.
Nice work It is looking good.
I like the color of the saw now and you did a really good job
It has been great following the restoration of the table saw. Great work and thanks for sharing.
I absolutely love the color scheme you ended up using. You've done a tremendous job restoring this thus far!
How cool does that look!
Amazing job.
it looks awesome. great job!!
Can't believe it was over a year ago when you first got the saw...
Now I'm rewatching/ binge watching the table saw playlist before watching the newest/last vid.
The choice of colour and paint finish is spot on.
Patience is a virtue. The end result is well worth the wait. That Wadkin Bursgreen table saw is a beauty👊. In Cape Town we say it's "Duidelik"
Keep doing what your doing Jean, its working out incredible like all your projects !!
Fantastic result Jean. Well done. It looks fantastic.
The results are very impressive and you should be very proud of your first restoration project. I usually can’t wait to see the next stage of your table saw restoration project. I am very interested to see how you will integrate your new table saw into your all in one work station. They were both my 2 favourite projects. Keep up the great work!👍
Awesome job. Doesnt look like a first time at all.
What a fantastic nut and bolt refurbishment job, did you notice the previous repair to the rise and fall gear quadrant tooth at 13.18 minutes in. You've just shown
us why these vintage Wadkin table saws are really worth restoring to use if you can find one. Looking forward to seeing it performing in your future videos. Tony
looks fantastic, wow!
Wow! What a transformation, it looks great, well done!!!!
Very nice choice of paint and color, you will enjoy using it when it's done.
You have done a sterling job on the restoration. Hammered paint was a perfect choice as was the colour. Top job. Cheers 👍😎🇦🇺
Good for you man that's solid work! I can't even recognize it from the before images.
I have a 1962 AGS 10 and also swapped out the motor to single phase. The riving knife in my model is fixed and does not lift with the blade. I have made a zero clearance blade insert and use Microjig splitters which work well. I have the original fence but it is finicky to adjust. I have subsequently replaced it with a VerySuperCool Tools fence. A great upgrade. It is a great table saw but dust collection was not a key part of the design back in 1962.
Well done it looks fantastic
Hey Jean, smooth as silk and looks great! I'm unsure of the original fence set-up but replace it with a beizamaire style fence! Would be super easy to retrofit to the saw. You will never regret this mod. Cheers from down under.
That looks great!!
Even though it was your first restoration, you did an excellent job. I love your attention to details.
Superb restoration. I agree with all the other comments that the silver grey hammer finish looks amazing. Great job. What an amazing transformation when looking at before and after. Also I love the ‘coin test” at the end. Super stable table top!
Great job thanks for sharing.
You should be very proud of the results; everything looks excellent. Not only does the color scheme and texture look super-clean and sleek, the process of taking it apart gives you very detailed knowledge about the workings of that saw. That will serve you well in the future as you maintain it. It is truly one-of-a-kind now, as you've made it your own. Fantastic work, sir!
Nice job
Clean and professional finish. What a boykie!
You know you're a woodworker when... You are picking bolts that match your paint. Sweet.
That is an intimidating task. Bravely done, sir.
Great job junkie
Super nice job, Jean! Congratulations with the current progress. I hope it will serve you for many years. Many of us can only dream of such a great piece of equipment. Greetings from the Netherlands.
For someone with no experience you smashed it mate I can’t wait to see it up and running it’s a lovely piece of kit 👌🏻
Great color scheme!
Looks really good. Would like to see the final finishing of it, fence, aligning, etc.
Ha! Standing ovation.
It turned much better than I expected. You are a Pro Restorator since now.
P.S. You may call Diresta for your ice pick.
thing's lookin awesome! can't wait to see the finished product!
There is a dry grease i used after cleaning up my 20 yr old JET. Instead of grease that will capture the dust and gum up the internal gears. Just a thought. Nice job and thanks for sharing.
That's excellent!
Great Job!
You nailed this man. I thought you were a little crazy when I saw the first video of you showing off the issue with the saw.
I'm thinking, "just work more and buy something you love." Because you're time is also money.
But this really turned out better than my rehabs. By a lot. I rehabbed a jointer and that worked OK but doesn't look awesome. And I tried a bandsaw and that was a complete failure.
I liked the colors, the logo looks better than new.
Really good job.
Looking good!
Awesome job, I just started with woodworking and enjoying your uploads.
Well done! 🙂
Great job, good finish and looks like a perfect machine...
Good job!
looks great, you have done a fantastic job with that. i would have put some orange highlights on it if i did it but now it is done i think it looks better as you have done it.
I got a sick feeling in my stomach when the thought came up this morning, that your shop might have been affected by the riots.
Great work m8.
Amazing job, Thought you should have gone with orange as an ascent color on the signs, but he black and silver are so subtle and clean looking. keep up the great work. En jy maak ons trots hier in SA met jou kanaal.
👍👍👍 nicely done
Question: Will you be removing the table saw section of your workbench and somehow incorporating the restored saw so you can use the bench as an outfeed table? Seems to me you may struggle for space in your shop with two extra large saws set up in there and I'm interested in how you get around that problem.
Keep up the good work 👍
Love it
Nicely done. The proof will be in the cutting.
I didn't like the sound of the hammered paint when you described it but it deff looked the part when done
Wow awesome job, Are you going to try to figure out a riving knife or dust collection for it. Things so old it doesn't look like it came with either of them. Can't wait to see it cut something
It has a riving knife and blade guard but the bracket that I got with the saw is broken. I am working on machining a replacement.
Givin new life to old tools...I love this :) Im glad ya didnt paint it green too, for some reason I have a deep hatred for green tools hahah :P You done a good job lad, the saw looks amazing, you should feel VERY proud of your work!! :) I jus hope that its a dry lube you used on your moving parts.....a wet lube like grease will attract every particle of dust and it will foul up your mechanism.
Again, great work man, I love seein old tools brought back from the brink :)
Awesome
This is a fantastic series. Can't wait to see the saw in daily use. Your colour choice was perfect and the end result looks great. Would love to know where you sourced the motor and what it cost in ZAR.
Baie Mooi!!!
May I ask you to share your HVLP configuration, please? In particular, what sort of drying are you using for your air supply, and what you used to reduce the thickness of the paint?
Awesome stuff. That saw is a beaut.
When it's done you won't need your table saw. I'll send you my address 😋😜
Flippen sparkies...
