    Hello,

    Can you be more specific about the assistance that you seek? Are you looking for guidance on which brands/models might be appropriate for your requirements? Or sources for these tools in your area?

    Thanks,

    Paul

    thank you for your reply mister paul. perhaps the source where i could buy not the whole table but the important mechanisms particularly the tilting gadgets for the blades..

    its difficult for us to import a whole one..hence, i wish i could acquire each part part one at a time and assemble them here in the philippines. someone sent me a drawing but didn't get specific as to measurements, the materials to be used etc.. so it was a bit useless...

    we can fabricate the table top here.. but the most important thing to acquire from there is that mechanism which tilts left or right , up or down.. if i could have it, surely, we can fabricate our own fence, table top and attach the correct electric motor..

    again thank you for your interest...

    I'm not at all sure how to help you build a table saw "from scratch." You'd probably have to try to contact one of the tools manufacturers directly to try to get a specific part, such as a table trunnion, from them. It would mean looking at their web sites, identifying a part number, and then ordering the part.

    Good luck with your project.

    mister george,

    i hope you know the parts.. perhaps you can identify the specific most important parts and i will surf them in the net.. the motor, we can have it here..
    perhaps, i can start from there.. from "scratch"

    i do appreciate your willingness to help
