Selling a NEW 10" Craftsman table saw. Old owner died while assembling the
stand.

Maybe from old age?
I recently bought a Ridgid TS which is probably the same as the Craftsman, and
it took me almost 2 days to assemble and align it..

The words "some assembly required" are slowly being replaced with "YOU build
the damn thing"..
I guess the less assembled something is, the smaller and cheaper it is to
ship...
