My table saw is in an insulated heated shop in the winter but the summer humidity will rust it if it's not protected. If there is some rust, get out some 400 grit automotive sandpaper, followed by 1000 grit and start sanding. Then follow with wax. After all that sanding you'll remember to re-wax it for awhile. A table saw is safer to use when you aren't pushing hard to slide it along. Jim [Reply]  [No Email]

Reason is the same guy who told me about the wax is a guy I also watched cut off 3 fingers and sure as heck did a number on the date I was suppose to be going on with his daughter. Seems she wanted to be at the hospital instead of going on that date for some odd reason. After watching him do that I will never use a table saw [Reply]  [No Email]
