I just bought and set up my Ridgid R4512 and I am happy with it so far. But it seems to have a slight blade wobble upon start up and shut down. Is this normal or do I need to more tuning.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13868450026624129784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8791863190440082705.post-90783335964836971412012-09-29T23:48:17.677-07:002012-09-29T23:48:17.677-07:00I just set up a 4512, and found your page looking ...I just set up a 4512, and found your page looking for setup tips. <br /><br />I'll be trying this tomorrow, but I also wanted to pass along something else I found, "Trunion PALS". They look like a great way to make adjustments, and I'm sure I'll get a set some time in the future.<br /><br />Check it out: http://www.instructables.com/id/Saw-Pal-Instalation-on-a-Rigid-R4512-Table-saw/?ALLSTEPSUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01772173725955373809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8791863190440082705.post-20360816457775811622012-01-06T19:37:53.944-08:002012-01-06T19:37:53.944-08:00I know this has been around for a while, but I wan...I know this has been around for a while, but I want to let you know that this post really helped me out. I got a 4512 yesterday from HD, and I spent today putting it together. My blade was out by about 1/16 of an inch on the back, and if I didn't see your clamping method for dialing it in, I'd probably still be out in my garage swearing at it. The thing cuts extremely well now. All I need is a better blade and then I'll be ready to make some furniture.Mitchell Otahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09489567775190773200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8791863190440082705.post-25241259999565451012011-05-07T19:50:11.016-07:002011-05-07T19:50:11.016-07:00Hey guy thanks for posting this, I was afraid I wa...Hey guy thanks for posting this, I was afraid I was going to have put up with 16th inch miscuts and trying to straighten it by hand! Which wasnt working out very well. <br /><br />GibbyBogie Minkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09491808216388682747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8791863190440082705.post-31432107308895644522011-03-12T12:44:43.915-08:002011-03-12T12:44:43.915-08:00Hello, I am new to this site.

I got a good deal on a 12 " Hitachi SMS at Costco last year, bought a Rikon 6" jointer on Craig's List for les then half price, the DeWalt 618 router combo kit, and the Ridgid 4512 table saw from HB. I have the main parts of the table saw assembled but still need to put the back rail and the blade guard on. Your info on the chore of aligning the blade will no doubt be very helpfull. I have a router table extension that I have been in a quandry as to just how I was going to attach it. After seeing how the rails are attached to the table top and extension I think the same procedure of sliding bolts into the slot on the back of the rails will work very effectively. The 4512 looks like a nice saw. I was able to use a 20% coupon and was out the door for just over $400. Now i'm researching drill presses. The local Rockler store has the Powermatic VS, ( can't remember what it's called / 2800 ???)for $699, regular $999. (floor model), but all the bad reviews scared me off. I'm torn between the Jet JDP-17DX, and the 17" Steel City. Any thoughts would be welcome. Sorry for rambling.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14926214512149337868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8791863190440082705.post-2073582598767638832011-03-11T10:42:40.278-08:002011-03-11T10:42:40.278-08:00Keep up the good work, Furnitude!!!

I'll be using your review and blog comments as guidance in assembly, blade alignment and configuration, etc. so don't be frugal with your words and thoughts.<br /><br />Again, thanks so much for sharing your experience with the saw. This is my first table saw and I can't wait to get her up and running.<br /><br />SHCneuropsychdochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17002635735649729779noreply@blogger.com
