    Q for Powermatic Bandsaw users

    I was doing a tune up on my PM bandsaw (PWBS-14) today and while I really love the saw setting up the small back extension table is a real PITA!

    Has anybody else who owns this saw found an easy way to adjust the extension table level with the main table? Everything else was easy and quick but I must have spent nearly and hour trying to get it to match the main table and its still not quite right.

    That's a bugger to adjust. Like you I love the saw but it took me forever to adjust the extension table.

      Glad to see its not just me, there has to be an easy way to do it but as I am sure you have found, once you think its adjusted fine when you tighten the locking bolts it send the whole thing out of whack.
