cheers Van, I've got one sorted a bit closer to home. I got Matt Matts drawings but i thought the real thing would be easier to copy.

That hand screw Knob is paramount. You can't mistake a Wadkin Spindle Moulder split fence. Brilliant use as a substitute rip fence. Tonymore done, I'm pleased the motor was ok after spending 4 years outside. Bearings in good shape so just flushed and repacked.
After much filling and sanding a few coats of primer
Followed by the usual RAL 7011 enamel
Theres no reason to paint inside other than it looks good
This saw was missing its fence, its original fence ended up in canada. I've been looking for a fence for years so in the end I got the fence off a EQ spindle moulder which has the same fine adjuster but it doesnt tilt. I think it should work well and I think the provision to use the EQ's hold downs which go into the top of the fence will be quite usefull.
