I'll keep my cast iron table. Simply because I have the Carter Magfence II and that thing is perfect for the bandsaw. Easiest fence to set up and position. I wish my table saw top was cast iron.

Rather than investing in tools that you may only use once I would use the services of a good machine shop or a lawn mower repair shop. They do a lot of bearing services on mower decks etc.

Since there are other uses for a manual arbor press (such as lathe turning projects) and I don't want to ...

I am reluctant to upgrade to the Yosemite OS because in it you can no longer sync an iPhone by hardwire connection to a Mac. Sunc can only be done in the Cloud. :eek: I would like to avoid that!

Nope, you can change the settings to sync manually by the usb cable. However you loose the ...
