So, if I go this saw, I think we would probably do the same and build another one. An electrical engineer rebuilt it this last time and made a couple changes to it from the original configuration and I think that is the smoothest that saw has ever run. You cannot stop that saw and only one cap in the converter has failed in that time. Like a conveniently located push-button arbor lock for quick, easy blade changes. 10 in Overall Height 41 Voltage 230 V Includes Fence, 52 Rails, Table Board, Storage Drawer, Push Stick, Saw Blade, Mitre Gauge. The UNISAW, has been redesigned from the ground up and loaded with industry firsts. Its been on there for over 20 years and still running strong. Get ready for something radically different. Anyway, thanks for your help guys.īob, although not the most effective way, we have a solid state phase converter on the Powermatic. My thought was maybe use this one and build a sliding table top for it.

We already have a 5HP 3Ph Powermatic (gold body) LHT and a Delta Unisaw 5HP 1Ph RHT saw, so it might not be that useful, but again, its nice having different saws setup for different things. It does have both cast wings on it and a pretty rough right hand extention table. We dont really need it, but figured if the deal was good enough, why not. The BIESEMEYER fence is a little rough, but the rails look ok, probably could use a new fence and me ok. The throat plate is about had it, shaft seems to turn without any wobble.

Model number as you stated does indicate its a 5HP 3Ph saw.

Thanks for that link Bob, and it was built in 1987 according to that link.
