Just remember the old saying about go faster stripes, it refers to your money, not the car.

I think it looks like something out of a cartoon :lol: :lol:

 

[JonnyD]

It looks pretty cool John.

I would have thought these machines refurbished to look like new are often done by the company Daltons in this instance for exhibitions to show off there workshop skills.

cheers

Scott and Sargent do the same thing too jon, when they delivered my tenoner they had some very day-glow colours on some wadkin gear on the wagon. The guy was standing on the end of the table on one :shock:

 

[jhwbigley]

I think it will be a good bit of fun, and make it look really smart, but for the time being just clean all the mud and much of :lol:

Maybe get someone handy on a air brush and make it look like the wood whisperers table saw 8)

I like it, but there again some people think I have a strange taste.

Couldn't you convince yourself that for health and safety reasons it is worth doing because of the emergency kick stop on the bottom or has it already got one of those?
What about saving money on electric, because it is so bright you could use it in the dark :lol:
Saving money on buying a mirror, because you could comb your hair in the stainless steel. Or just ignoring SWMBO protests and saying "I'm the bl££ding man of the house and what I say ... what I say ..... what you say goes" :-#

I'll get me coat .................

Cheers

hi jon

one thing mind if you decide to do it all yourself, once you've stripped and clean & then reassemble it back to that lovely condition , if and when you get any problem you'll know exactly what wrong with it , what a lovely finish . hc

Looks very nice to my eyes.

There's one of the US table saw makers that was offering custom paint jobs on their products in the last year. That now is overstepping the mark on 'bling'....
