I picked up this vintage radial arm saw, and let me tell you these babies take up quite a bit of room! But it provides reach and angles and accuracy not possible with my old chop saw. Next project with this saw it to cut scuppers on the in-wales for the unfinished canoe. I installed the old trusty dado blade set up at an inch and will nibble out 4" scuppers on a 12" centers the length of the in-wales with the exception of 32" on either end for tapers. Problem to be fixed was in-feed and out-feed tables at the height of the saw platform... sheesh nothing is ever easy! But I got it done and am ready to start cutting....
