Default Tiny gloat and question

Dual post here.

Finally got around to building a base on casters to go under a 4-drawer
file cabinet in the basement (if it can be called a basement!) and putting
it in place last night. Out of one of the drawers fell one of my ex's
purchases. It is book(let), circa 1970. EAA How-to Series, "Basic Hand
Tools, Vol. 2," I showed it to a pilot friend this morning who said,
"Wow! An Environmental Aircraft Association book. This has to be almost
a collector's item."

Not sure it can be called a collector's item, but it has a lot of great
stuff in it. As my friend said, lots of things change, but basic
woodworking is constant. Though it is hardly likely drilling cowl
fastener holes, cutting glass tubing, or bending tubing with spring type
tube benders is in my future, it has a lot of good, practical information.
It's what I call a score.

Question:
How do you folks keep your tool tops in good condition, specifically table
saws? Keeping them waxed is one thing I've read, is that practical, and
does it work? It's time I cleaned up the tiny almost-rusted areas on my
TS top and make certain it is babied in the future.
