Wadkin mitre saw restoration

This is where we don't want anything but evidence of your finest wood butchering in all its glorious, and photograph laden glory. Bring your finished products or WIP's, we love them all, so long as there's pictures, and plenty of 'em!

What will you do with it now, Mark? Is it for your own use, or are you going to sell it?

Mike its a keeper. I've got a nasty little screechy modern thing which is less than accurate. I've got a wadkin CK RAS which is really nice but is a pain to get back to 90 after doing 45's. That will be set up just for cross cutting and rebate head. I've already started stripping my next victim. It wasn't next in the cue but after using it I noticed the bearings sound really bad so I may as well make it pretty while I'm on.
