Got an old CM tablesaw that looks new underneath that I'm restoring. 1950's cast iron heavy as hell. After new bearings for the arbor, I got the blade at 0.005 parallel to the table slots. I think I can do better but I ran out patience. If it's 5 thou out in the correct orientation that can be good. Don't know, got tired of dicking with it and cinched up the bolts.

You would think for wood it's no big deal. It is to an extent, but not like a mill. That's next.
