I have a craftsman 113 radial arm saw on offer.
It is an older saw, but it looks brand new.
Everything on the saw seems to function fine.
The only thing of note would be the blade nut hangs when you are removing it.
That said the threads seam fine and still it works fine, probably just needs a new nut.
The saw runs, slides, stops and rotates as expected.
The front says 2.
5 max(peak) hp, the motor says 120 or 240 volts, it is currently wired for 120v.
the saw takes a 10" saw blade.
I got in some deals and already have one that was my dads so I don't need it.
If you are replacing a saw you know what you are looking at.
If you are setting up/expanding your shop or even have a modest garage and need a multi purpose saw, this is what you need.
These saws ride on a rail so you can cross cut extremely wide boards.
The height is adjustable so you can cut grooves(rabbits) in boards with multiple passes(even better with a dado blade) for shelf slots or jointery.
It is just as good as router and jig but quicker.
The over head arm rotates 180 degrees offering miter action and allowing you to move it out of the way for storage.
I have also seen you tube videos of people using this feature and attaching a pulley so the saw can power another tool, like a lathe.
The motor it self can be rotated 180 degrees to the table allowing for more miter options and the motor can spin, all of which allowing an extreme range of motion and use.
I attached photos to show the different movements and its condition.
The saw also has a 1/2-20 threaded shaft opposite of the blade for attachments to further its usefulness, you can even attach a drill press chuck.
On the the bottom of the motor are threaded holes, the internet is filled with people attaching plates to these saws and now it can be used as a router guide or some other tool.
One last note, it takes a common 10" inch 5/8 bore saw blade, so you can use the same blades for this and your table saw or miter saw.
What sets this apart from modern sliding miter saws is the foot print.
The sliding miter saw requires open space in the back for for the saw rails to move forward and backwards when you cut.
With the radial arm saw the motor slides on the arm.
So it can be pushed up against a wall and left there.
And since it has all that movement, you can always swing the arm 90 degrees to clear up bench space.
There is no cutting deck or back rail currently, but those are usually sacrificial pieces on these saws anyway, with a little research, the internet is filled with build plans.
It also does not have stand, but it can easily be mounted to a work bench or stand.
Price is 100 dollars, OBO, for full price it will come with a blade.
For $30 extra I can include the stand my current saw is on.
The arm saw fits perfectly on it and is 33 and 7/8 inches tall, one shelf below and three screws on the side for easy blade storage.
It is the last picture, saw in picture is not the one for sale.
