Unisaw Tuneup
I have a 15 year old Delta Unisaw and it's time for an adjustment of
the blade. The only information I can find on the web is to loosen the 4 screws that attach the table to the cabinet, adjust the blade to parallel the miter slot, then retighten the bolts. I remember when I last made the adjustment that it wasn't quite that easy. Any tips or websites? Mr Fixit eh |

That's going to require some precision measuring devices
and some time. You should adjust blade to miter slot. You should then adjust fence to blade. Steve Nekias wrote: I have a 15 year old Delta Unisaw and it's time for an adjustment of the blade.

Bridger:
and you don't really *need* the popsicle stick. just use the dental floss..... I'm not too awfully sure about that. I've found that with floss alone, there's always the need for a crusty booger or two. UA100 |
