Axminster TS-200, Got it from thier ebay site and it will be delivered on Tuesday. So not seen it properly yet so fingers crossed lol

Just bought a SIP 01332 and sliding carriage, two problems; the weather is too cold to be handling chunks of cast iron and the wheels are on back order to arrive some time in January. Still I've read the instructions three times now and they're beginning to make sense :)

I've ordered an AW12BSB2 to come some time later this month [don't think it will fit down the chimney], it's a lot more than I need at the moment, but I reckon it should be up to anything I ever want to do with it , and should see me out.
 
I have the TS-200 as of a week or two ago and it seems like a decent starter saw.

I have done some mods to tune it up a bit like adding delrin runners and bolts to make the fence glide without chattering, replaced the blade with a 220mm version to be able to get a true 65mm depth of cut as with the original I was only getting 55mm at full stretch and even less with the crown guard in place. Also made a zero clearance plate.

The blade was true to the mitre slot and fence with about 0.2mm tolerance front to back.

Overall very happy but these can be refined with a bit of work and well worth the effort IMO.

Hi Steve

What clearence are you getting with the 220mm blade in, and where did you get the delrin runners and bolts to make the fence glide without chattering. Have you got any pics for us to have a gander at :)

Dave,

There is still plenty of clearance below the table in the metal chip sucky guard thingy (expert here!!!). I did have to re-cut the riving knife back about 10mm or so and re-bevel. Also the shims needed a tad removed as well. I now run a Freud Pro LP30M 020 blade.
With the larger blade it still can be wound below the table but not by much and is almost flush.

I bought a sheet of 1.5mm PTFE and lined the bottom of the fence and bevelled the two long edges so they do not snag on the mitre slots.
With the same stuff I lined the fence clamp where it rests on the rail and also the back edge where it rests against the side of the rail. I used a polyofin plastic primer and super glue for this. All metal to metal contact is now gone.

Plastic was bought from Direct Plastics On-line (good to deal with) and the primer from Ebay.

I noticed when sliding the fence it ran smoothly but still juddered so drilled and tapped two 6mm holes in the bit that faces you and goes over the rail and made two Delrin screws that when in place rest lightly against the rail and stop the play when sliding the fence left and right. A couple of lock nuts stops it moving when set up.

It works like a dream and glides smooth without chattering with one finger if thats your thing!!

I will do a review with piccies if anyone wants and will be better than my descriptions above ?

Steve.
