Recently bought an old jig grinder for planer/thicknesser & jointer knives... Has a sliding carriage... For lineshaft drive...but came with a 1/2HP Century electric repulsion start/induction run motor...

Next few days I'll put up better pics of the Jointer, FAY workshop saw and the smaller table saw... Also the Danarm 1-71ss

Just got an old Danarm chainsaw... One with a chain brake...quite rare so I've been told... It's for restoration...

Just got a small table saw which will be ideal for cross cutting with a fine blade... Pics to follow...

I'm an electrician based in Leeds... I'd do it... Alternatively I've a mate lives over near Northwich...

Whoever had mounted that blade had done so the wrong way round... I mean for the love of christ.... [-( ](*,) :-|

Update: The first table saw is possibly a DALTON The second one I think is a J. A. FAY & CO.

There's no makers name on the first table saw... But looking at it I think it's possibly a Cooksley... Any ideas...?

Just bought another table saw...a smaller one... I'll fit a fine blade to it...

Yes I certainly do think you should use it.... Sandstone is a very gentle & forgiving abrasive for edging tools...works very well and the slurry generated hones beautifully... Get some 2mm sheet metal and make a half round bath for it A bit of 50X50 angle around the top.... A couple of pillow...

I've an early design of flashtapper... Run upto 20mm tap... I've got several mechanical hacksaws...and a lineshaft driven surface grinder... Oh, and I've a pedestal grinder...a large one with a 18" capacity...thats for lineshaft running too...

They're OK for home use...not suitable where there's employee's...as you'd never get insured for em... Like I says...theres minimum guarding (if at all), no instabrakes and certain types of cutter blocks are known for nipping finger ends off and throwing knives...

I take it you were one of those watching it It was actually a bit more than £200 But I don't like discussing 'how much' on forums...nor anywhere else for that matter...

I've plenty more stuff to see... But it'll take time to drag it out... I've 3 wood lathes...and a nice hollow chisel mortiser...

See who can spot the problem with the first table saw here.. Look closely: I'll give a clue: 'blade'

Well... I don't like talking 'how much was it'... But it's OK...i had to pay £200 for that...its way beyond what I'd normally pay...but they're rare are these now...so I committed... I don't know where you stand but I grab this stuff where I can...as all that seems to matter now is: "do I get...

I don't pay much for em... They'll never go back into a manufacturing process as they won't meet any kind of machinery directives...

Here's one of half a dozen different designs of bench grinders I've got: I've an old lineshaft driven shoe finishing machine by FROBANA as well... I'll set it up for metal polishing

Here's one of several bench drills I've got... Theres no makers name...but I liked the shape of it: Like I says...i've several more bench drills...

Wadkin EV: I think i've referred to this as an EZ in the Utube vid... Its not. It's clearly an EV Anyway...these are how they look when built up
