There are 2 local shops that rebuild motors.

I have found that I could have them rebuilt for less then 1/3 the
price of a new one......

I would let my fingers walk thru the yellow pages and see what some of
the electrical shops charge for a rebuild.....

The 1 HP motor to my craftsman tablesaw burnt out yesterday while
ripping a piece of 2" oak. The motor bogged down and died once, but
started up again. Then when making another cut it died for good. So
now I ponder what to do. I only paid $100 for the saw. I recently
posted about the thoughts on upgrading the fence for the saw, which I
would still like to do seeing as the stock one sucsk. And it raised
the same issue; do I put any more money into the saw or go ahead and
upgrade. My long term plan was to use the saw for another year or so
and them get a used cabinet saw. While I'd love an excuse to get a
new saw, I had planned on first rounding out the shop with a Bandsaw,
jointer, and maybe a planer. Thoughts? If anyone knows a good
source for replacement motors let me know. I'm in SE Flordia so local
places would be good too.
