My grandfather left me his table saw after he passed. I have a lot of great memories in his workshop learning to use this saw. I restored it and will keep it in the centre of my shop
Beautiful video. I was given an old table saw that needs refurbishment and this video helped give me a lot of ideas. Enjoy making new memories on yours!
That's nicer than mine. I tell people all the time. Get an older table saw and upgrade parts. The base is better than anything you buy today without spending a ton. Mine has the outfeed motor. I cleaned it up. Bought a new motor. You can upgrade to 2 and 3hp. Then I bought a new fence. The fence is where it's at. I went with the shop fox. It was much cheaper and accurate as anything else if you set it up. Has all the adjustments you need. Then you have more money for other tools. The delta cabinet saw will cost you a good penny but it has the same motor as a table top. These old saws are amazing. They just need some upgrades.
Great to see you posting content Mark. The Table saw cleaned up really well. Thank you for sharing! Hope you get some time to enjoy using the Saw Mark!
That rip fence looks just like the Exact-I-Rip I got with my Craftsman contractor series saw. Very nice & precise. T-slots are so handy for jigs, patterns etc.
Good Job. Hope it gives you many years of enjoyment. I think you'll find a single edge razor blade works better than a screwdriver to clean gunk off a metal surface.
Beautiful job sir, you've honored your grandfather well!!!
Your granddad should be proud of you, hopefully one of my grands follow as you did. Congratulations with honor
Outstanding video! As a grandfather myself, I really appreciate that you value the time you spent with him.
I’m sure he be proud to see what you did with his saw, and even prouder to see what you do with it. Came up a treat.
Thank you Steve
Nice to see you back Mark, always great to see things restored and used again, rather than just thrown out.
Hi Greg! good to hear from you! Thank you
I hope it brings you many years of enjoyment like I'm sure it did your grandfather. Love the video. Don't be a stranger.
Thanks Chris.

You probably have done your grandpa proud, great to see an old tool brought back to life
What a beautiful thing to do to honor him! Nice saw too!
Great to see you posting content Mark.
The Table saw cleaned up really well. Thank you for sharing!
Hope you get some time to enjoy using the Saw Mark!
Great work Mark
Great work on the restoration!
Hey thanks for video!! I have and table saw and this is pure inspiration

Sorry for your loss, mate.
I think your Grandfather would be proud of the job you did! 👌🏾
Had to chuckle when that wheel hit the ground, oops. 😆
Thanks Bill.
I was in a state of confusion haha. Completely missed the wheel

Think we all have moments like that, mate... 🥴😏😆
What was that foam cleaner you used? Great that you referbished you GF's TS. Take pride that you have some of his tools.
Fantastic video. Fantastic result! Gave me that "a HA!" moment too on how to remove rust on large surfaces!!!!
Good Job. Hope it gives you many years of enjoyment. I think you'll find a single edge razor blade works better than a screwdriver to clean gunk off a metal surface.
V good clip. Great to hear from you again!!
What was the Foamy Cleaning spray?
Thank you Lee. I'll be uploading on the regular. the foam is an automotove degreaser
What kind of spray foam cleaner did you use 🤔
What did you use to clean the motor?
I used a spray degreaser
Every time someone cleans a table saw top with a flat-blade screwdriver, God kills a puppy...
In my experience rattle can paint on the throat plate will rub off on your work.
I can hear your grand-dad saying Well Done!!!
I can also hear him saying never push wood on a table saw with your hand, use a push stick!!!
thank you for the kind words. i agree with the push stick. can't use the saw without all 10 digits!
😭😭😭👍💪
It would have been EXTREMELY HELPFUL IF HE HAD SAID WHAT HE WAS USING. The video itself won't help me restore my classic Craftsmans table saw.
Degreaser, vinegar, variety of coarse pads and a lot of time. I hope your craftsman comes out looking new! It’s super rewarding such a good feeling
