Re: The Ultimate Sawsmith Radial Arm Saw Thread
I would be more suspicious of the start switch. Does not run = great price reduction bargaining factor. I picked up the saw for $75. If I can't get it running, the stand and parts are worth that. It also had the "add a tool" accessory. I probably wont use it since I have a Shop Smith and ...

Re: The Ultimate Sawsmith Radial Arm Saw Thread
Thanks.
The switch works and power goes to the motor assembly. You can hear the motor wanting to turn. I did find capacitor on line. The original was a Mepco/Centralab brand. 243-292 MFD, 110 VAC, 60Hz. My biggest concern now is getting the arbor off the saw. It is stuck.

Re: The Ultimate Sawsmith Radial Arm Saw Thread
What size capacitor does the Sawsmith use? I'm looking at one tomorrow and it may need one. The current owner says it powers on but the blade will not turn. I'm guessing it is the capacitor and in need of a good cleaning. Thanks.

Re: Shopsmith 20" Scroll Saw vs Excalibur EX30 Scroll Saw Review
I have the stand alone version of the Shop Smith scroll saw and enjoy it. However, the problem is finding time to get in the shop to do projects.
