I don't think its intended for table saws. It is advertised for miter saws. It's 0.020" thick. It is for miter/RAS saws, where you move the blade across the wood, not viseversa. The only way I could see it working on a table saw would be to apply that same 0.020" tape across the width of t...

The easy way is to just pick up another SS that has a disc with it.

Yea, there's still at least a double layer of cardboard before it could pierce the outside of the box. Other alternatives for shipping purposes, would have been to use a rubber vacuum cap over the stud that would fit snug and not fall off. Or use a "threaded" nylon spacer. But hey, back se...

I just opened mine to see. Haven't had the chance to try it out yet. Here's the way I found the spacer in question. Turns out Mike is right about it protecting the threaded shaft.

I also needed to install a lockset on my Mom's computer room door( to keep Grandkids out ) many years ago. I also went to "bLowes" and found this http://www.irwin.com/tools/linear-edge/wood-door-lock-installation-kits# . It worked very well for the intended purpose. Irwin makes decent stuff.

I'm a little late to the party :( I searched some of my teardown archives and came up with these.

Hey, some people prefer political analogies, I use car analogies.

BTW have you seen MickyD's model 10 thread? Yes I have and it is a beautiful piece of eye candy for SS owners. Very nice to look at and marvel at the old technology, but.... To bring in the "car" analogy, drive a 1920's car and then drive a new late model car, world of difference in drive...
