Too bad we are 2,000 miles apart. I have a similar vintage 10" craftsman
that was lightly used that is just gathering dust in the basement.

Ok, my practically new (I bought it new only 32 years
ago) radial arm saw broke down. I know it is probably a
lost cause, but does any body have any idea where I
might be able to get parts for it? It is a ShopCraft
Model SC5110T1. I may have bought it from Grainger.

I am thinking about buying a new one, but there don't
seem to be a whole lot of them available any more. I
noticed that Harbor Freight had one on their web site
for about $250, but the only others I have been able to
find are Sears and Delta, at pretty high prices.

I suppose I could get a table saw, they are a lot less
expensive, but then I would have to learn how to use it
all over again. Also a table saw pretty much has to sit
in the middle of the floor. I have my radial built into
the work bench against the wall, where it is out of the
way when I'm not using it. Also it means I have a long
rip table when I am ripping long pieces.

Thanks,
Bill Gill
