Delta Unisaw Rebuild Part IV

You will likely assemble furniture pieces as quickly as you can to get a better view of the piece. I dont think Ive built a chest of drawers where I havent set the drawer fronts in place even before the drawer boxes were built. I imagine rebuilding a vintage Unisaw from Delta would be the same.

The time has come. With all the saw parts cleaned and refurbished and the electric parts reworked and rewired, its time to reassemble the vintage 1944 Unisaw. In this fourth video segment of the Delta Unisaw Rebuild (click here), youll watch Steve Shanesy single-handedly install the motor , all 38 kg of it , into the saw cabinet. (This is worth the price of admission by itself.)

There are many more. Steve walks you through how to adjust the tabletop to fit the blade. This is a two-step process to ensure accuracy. He also adds a dust collector to the cabinet and gives some tips. You will see a table saw ready to go at the end. It makes one wonder what the next two installments will cover.
