that was the first table saw that i bought as a teenager...$75.00 well used. cut allot of timber with it. one of the best things that i did to make it run smoother was to add a link belt. good luck and have fun with it.
@@YeahPete you will be amazed at how much smoother your saw will run. they are directional, so make sure to install it properly, it is an inexpensive upgrade to an old saw like yours.
Usually that type cast iron saw uses a 10" blade. Odd that one uses an 8" blade. I rebuilt an old Craftsman 10" cast iron table saw into a very nice cabinet saw setup with table top extensions. I built a square tube frame all around the sides and exit end of the table and added MDF with laminate Formica on it. Then installed a new arbor, bearings and even a new motor with a twist-lock belt and Biesemeyer 50" fence and it runs like a top. Old is new again!
I hope you put something on the table and extensions to keep them from rusting again. I've been told that paste wax works well. I guess well see as I have to do the same thing to a saw I have and I've got some old carnuba floor wax just collecting dust I'm going to try. I'm also going to build a cover for it as I had just a piece of cardboard sitting on it for over a year and the rust hasn't gotten any worse. I wish I had time to disassemble it but I don't. Nice job.
I have a suggestion if you’re doing anything but rough carpentry junk the rip fence, and as with most OEM miter gages no good. I make custom furniture and cabinets with mine, properly setup these saws are super accurate. I have several of these saws price was free to $50, after mods about $400 including a “new” motor, can not touch a decent saw for 3 times the price
Thanks for the comment! You're right. I made some sweet cubbies, and quickly noticed how inaccurate the fence is. That video will be up... Eventually. If I ever do fine woodworking with it again I will have to address the fence. Did you buy a stand-alone fence or make one yourself?
Yeah Pete I ended up with one from Jet, Grizzly has several nice ones not cheap but worth it. Check Banggood for some deals on some very good miter gauges,
I'm in the process of doing my father's old 72 Craftsman tablespoon I've just been scrubbing the top forever lol. Did the vinegar pit the cast iron at all?
Science says it will pit but I didn't notice any it looks brand new. Just 24 hours in the bath. Rust came right off like like nothing. You can maybe even try less time like check after 8 hours. Electrolysis does not pit. It's a bit more of a pain to set up but no pitting.
Wow, I’m trying electrolysis right now for a table saw I just bought, but your method looks simpler and it looks that it worked nicely. Electrolysis is a mess 😣
It actually works awesome this technique!!! The only thing I like to know, is why does it need to be neutralized with water and baking soda afterwards? (I already done this step, it’s just for knowledge purposes).
Vinegar is a light acid, but it is an acid. It gets inside of the pores and unless its neutralized, it never stops "eating"; eventually that can lead to pitting.
It was about 7 gallons of water and 7 of those containers of vinegar. The rust came off so easily you can probably use half the amount of vinegar and just let it soak an extra day.
Thanks for the comment. Yeah I should have put clips of me using it. If you want to see it in use I have snippets in my last uploaded video. ua-cam.com/video/4MYHucqCbnE/v-deo.html
When you did this you said you used canola oil but could use motor oil or anything you have. Do you know if it’s better to use 1 oil over another? Thanks for the video, I am going to be doing this after Christmas!
Thanks for the comment. Motor oil would probably be fine. Machine oil probably best. I dont think I would use used oil. Its all dark and murky and contaminated with heavy metals.
I hit send too soon, sorry. I couldn't find wings for it. After 2 years I gave up. I wanted a 10 inch with a 27 inch deck. I wanted older Craftsman, of course. After a year I couldn't find one that I could afford either. I came across a saw like yours with one wing cheap, I bought it. I decided one wing wasn't to my liking. Again the hunt for wings is on. I couldn't find any wings again. :-(. I then put an add on c-list asking for wings, nothing:-(. I then ran into a twin of my saw real cheap. I decided to use the new saw as my extension wings. It would bolt together nicely. Before I could bolt the saws and wing together some guy responds to my c-list add. He has two wings for $20. I bought them. Now this project is getting way out of control :-). I bolted it all together, wing, saw, wing, saw, wing. If I recall correctly, I now have a monster saw with a 66" x 20" deck. I run a combo blade in one saw and a dado stack in the other. The fence connects perfectly. I also added a front extension on it which brings the deck to 27" x 66". This setup is way more than I need, I would have been happy with one saw, two wings :-). But it is super cool and I have just about $100 invested including the stand 👍. I need to clean my decks up like yours. My saws have tin shed disease, fighting rust is a constant battle. Great video! Thank you!
I really like it, but its kinda short. I think next project where I need to cut big sheets I'm going to build a longer wooden fence. Thanks for your support!
Thanks a million for demonstrating some really nice clean diy methods here
Thanks for the comment. Hope it works for you.
Wow that is a nice piece of equipment and I love that fence
Thank you! Yes the fence works great.

Hell yes. This is just what I needed.
Thanks!
Great video to watch (and listen!), best idea that I got for removing rust from large surfaces too is the box and bag method! Sweet 👍🏻 👍🏻
Thanks for the comment. Yes I was surprised how easy the rust came off.
Great job Pete,
You got my sub.
Thank you!

Nice. Im not at that level yet.
Nice table saw.....I have 1980's B&D needs restored & a few missing parts.

I’d like to see the front of the saw too... nice work!
Thanks for the comment! Sorry I missed that.
Looks beautiful, thanks for the video

@@YeahPete thanks for the information
love the bench vise! lol It could possibly use the same treatment lol
Yeah that thing is beat!

Thanks for the comment. They both work very well I guess it depends on user preference. I hope your saw cleans up nicely.
It actually works awesome this technique!!!

Thanks for the comment. Im not sure the science behind it, but it makes sense.
Vinegar is a light acid, but it is an acid. It gets inside of the pores and unless its neutralized, it never stops "eating"; eventually that can lead to pitting.
Thank you new subscriber
Thank you. Sorry I never got the notification for this comment. Hate when it does that.
Hello,
Ready to switch out table from different saw. Which screws do i need tp remove to get the top off by itself.
Just flip it over and you will see the bolts. Good luck!
Very nice
Thanks
How much water to vinegar did you use?
It was about 7 gallons of water and 7 of those containers of vinegar. The rust came off so easily you can probably use half the amount of vinegar and just let it soak an extra day.
was hoping for a test run.
Thanks for the comment. Yeah I should have put clips of me using it. If you want to see it in use I have snippets in my last uploaded video. ua-cam.com/video/4MYHucqCbnE/v-deo.html
Sweet 👍🏻 👍🏻
Thanks for the comment!
Que modelo es la sierra y cuantos HP tiene que tener el motor
Model 113.2770. I don't know if it's the original motor but it's like 1 1/4hp motor.
When you did this you said you used canola oil but could use motor oil or anything you have. Do you know if it’s better to use 1 oil over another? Thanks for the video, I am going to be doing this after Christmas!

Genius
Thank you, still using it today!
Did you do anything to the bottom of the table saw top? Or do people not care about the other side? Thanks.
The bottom of mine was fine but I figured people didnt care about that. I'd wipe it off if it was rusty. The rust comes off so easy so why not.
I had a saw like yours with a 22 inch deck, but no extension wings! :-(
I hit send too soon, sorry. I couldn't find wings for it. After 2 years I gave up. I wanted a 10 inch with a 27 inch deck. I wanted older Craftsman, of course.

@@bigray2859 nice! I never heard of anyone linking these saws together. Sweet deal on those wings for $20. Thanks for the comment.
I think this is a Craftsman 110.xxxxx series Made by Emerson.
The 110's look exactly the same but can house a larger 10" blade.
I need that fence 😂😂😂😂
I really like it, but its kinda short. I think next project where I need to cut big sheets I'm going to build a longer wooden fence. Thanks for your support!
@@YeahPete you welcome!! New subscriber!!
Should find some nice wood and add a sacrificial fence to hide bad spots
I totally forgot about that. Thanks for the tip!
Thought this was supposed to be easy.
Did it not work for you?
WHY DID'T YOU SHOW IT RUNNING ????????????????
I didn't get the wiring for the motor hooked up yet. You can see it in action in my farmhouse cubbies video though.
Thank you new subscriber
