Comments:

I bought this saw from a shop closing down in NJ in 2018. This is a very well optioned saw. Included 6.3 hp main motor, .75 hp scoring saw, original overhead blade guard, optional sliding table with specially furnished rail to accommodate 5' wide sheets of plywood, optional 53" ripping width, dado arbor, original cross cut fence that extends to 120" and original miter gage. The special order long rail was actually replaced by the original owner with a new rail in 2000 or so. The new rail has hardened strips of steel brazed to the prism shaped casting for long service. I have the original rail if anyone is interested. It will fit the T17 saw, T21 or T23 shapers with the sliding table. The longer rail also has support feet that can be installed at wither end of the rail to keep the saw stable as the sliding table is operated. Saw is in fantastic shape and included a couple dozen blades. The original owner let me dig around in their mezzanine for some things he thought went with the saw before the auction when I previewed it, and that's where I found all the original accessories for it.

Comments: Interior of tilt and height adjustment. There is more design and thought in this single mechanism than in some entire machines. Incredible efficient movement of the blade.
