I have the Unisaw positioned near the rollup garage door. That door is usually
open, just one of the advantages of living in sunny Southern California. On the rare
rainy day when the door must be closed I am limited to ripping work shorter than 3 feet or
so. That hasn't been a problem at all, and doing it that way is almost like having
an extra 8' of shop floor. |

The "upside down peace symbol" that Rockwell used for a time. The old
tools experts say that the mid 80's were not Rockwell's best in terms of quality.
I'm sure that I was lucky because this saw is rock solid. |

No tablesaw is really complete when it leaves the factory. You need accessories
to really make it perform. Some you can buy, some you can make. Zero clearance
inserts for example can and should be shop made. Sleds of various styles should be
shop made as well. Here is my 90° cut-off sled. |

This sled is for panels or sheet stock. The cut-off sled above will handle
sheets up to about 20" while this panel sled can handle 30" wide sheets.
These are made from 3/4" white Melamine. |

The miter gauge that comes with your saw leaves a lot to be desired. Woodworkers
today are fortunate to have many aftermarket choices. This miter gauge is an Incra
model and it works well for me, although there are better choices available today. |
