Hi folks - new member here, just picked up a used BT3000. Not sure if this is the right section for this, but here goes...
I've wanted a table saw for a while to help with all of the projects I do, but haven't been able to afford one. I bought this one used, but it is missing several parts. After seeing what these parts sell for new online, I could buy a better used saw or a cheaper new one for that cost.
I am missing:
sliding miter table and assembly
rip fence
blade guard assembly
*long table extension (would want this too for 4 x 8 sheets)
Unless I can find discounted used parts, I don't think it will be worth it. It looks like parts for the Sears 22811 and the Ridgid 22217 will work too - is this correct?
Other than the missing parts, it is in good shape, main table and router table are clean and flat, rails look fine, shroud around blade is fine, motor sounds good when I turn it on, etc...
