Mark, what a lovely saw, I would say its much later than that, 40's or 50's I would say, whites made some of the finest machines in the world . Spare parts not available but you won't need them , its bomb proof !

I have watched this video in full on youtube many times, I think the copy right owners are very hot on youtube and any posted content is taken down in a week or so. If you keep checking I am sure you will find it. I am not sure what is a " old Myth " ??, everything on roy suttons video is just...

They are talking about a push block which has a lip at the end, they are different to the ones shown in orbital bobs photo which are just pads, and these are what I am talking about. Using this type means passing your hands over the cutter block without protection and moving the bridge guard out...

I would hire a pallet truck, it will probably come on a pallet anyway and as others have said lay sheets of ply down over grass and steps and you will find it fairly easy, most important thing it to take your time and think what you are doing. I think it is better to move machines on your own...

USING PUSH STICKS OR PADS IS DANGEROUS !!!! This is a very bad idea and bad practice , sadly to much watching american youtube gives people the wrong idea, you should just use your bare hands in conjunction with a properly set bridge guard , as the bridge guard always covers the cutter block ...

mark great work, love the isolator

Mark, really enjoying your thread as always. You really are a restoration pro!!. I have also been very disappointed with these rust remover chemicals and really never seem to work very well. I think the best way is to get the rust off by mechanical methods then just fine coats of fine oil to...

A Panal saw sounds big ??. sending by pallet is risky and you have to rely on the ebay seller packing and fixing it properly, sometimes I have offered extra money to the seller to pack properly, well worth it to avoid damage. IMO best way is to hire a luton truck with tail lift and do it your...

I have both in my workshop, of course the pad sander or sad pander as they are often known are fantastic machines , very cheap to buy as no one wants them or more to the point do not understand them. It would be my choice. As robin says, a great step up from the hand held.

I agree, very low suction but good filters hence why they use them in colleges.

well you won't believe it but I am in the middle of moving workshop so the RS has been packed up ready to move, not sure when i am going to get it finished.

I like the handles Mark, I said it before great job on the restoration .

Merlin sounds like a great project, I don't care for all these VFD's but I like machines to be as god I mean wadkin intended , I guess you will be changing the motor over too.

All sagars would have been grey, with white lettering which was very common at the time,its hard to give a exact ral colour, sagar was brought out by wadkin in 1956 and all assets went to wadkin green lane but the company continued to trade as part of the wadkin group for some years. I hope...

FISCO tape measures are made in England, Don't stanley still make some tools in the uk ?

would also love to see some pictures, love old machinery.

its from a startrite table saw.

Hi Mike, yes you do have to dilute down as its very high solids, you will notice how heavy the tin is, you will need to mix the tine with a stick as all the solids sink to the bottom. It depends on your spray equipment but i normally do about a third, may be abit less than that. Its very fast...

I have also just started to use a cellulose high build pre cat primer by sayer lack which is distributed by "movac" here in the uk, I get through about 30 ltrs a month and i use a apollo HVLP set up which works well. I have used the morrells before but I did not think much of that. Mylands is...

I would just put it on ebay, put the word wadkin in the title will help you get more views from people interested in old iron that way. i found downsizing very hard, hows it going for you?.
