My third hand for the wing installs.
 

There was substantial dishing on the first table top.

What is this saw missing?

No fence on the saw yet.
 

Box 2 of 2 the Biesemeyer fence.

Again a well package product.

This is a good enough reason to get the saw.
 

Good things come in small packages.

Does not seem like there is much in the box.

More than enough to wheel a 400lb saw around.
 

This is the replacement saw top.

It took a few weeks to arrive.

Both tops here.
 

Here are a few pictures of the inside.

The trunnions are mounted to the cabinet. The four holes will secure the top.

One last picture before the top goes back on.
 

To level the wings I used shims made from a soda can.

Here is the top with both wings installed.

The ruler is flush with the splitter. You can see how far off it is from the blade.It took a fair amount of tweaking to make it acceptable.
 

Here is a visual of the alignment issue.

All together now.

From the front.
 

There are six allen keys for the saw. It take 3 to fully adjust the blade insert.

Just cut my first board. It works.

I measured .20 mm of dishing here.

The red circles are improperly milled stops. The green circles are the second try, and correct.

Another .20 mm
