You painted the table with something that's friction resistant I'm assuming, what did you use? 

The saw no I didnt just rustoleum it has some texture on the metal

You can get the electrics from ebay. Genuine about $20. Does it run faster without the potted board? I have one with the same issue and by-passed it and the motor seemed to run really fast.

It doesn't seem faster but maybe it is

Nice, I love the teal. Is the Makita logo a sticker?

 

 

If you start having trouble with it the caps generally are the culprit, lines and shrinking or rolling picture...but no matter how long it sits, discharge the flyback, it looks like a little distributor and connects to the tube. You can take two long screwdrivers that are decently insulated grips(not insulated shafts), one to the ground on the back of the tube and the other slides under the suction cup cover and touch the screwdrivers. You'll hear a loud pop, that pop can literally save your life when working on these.

Thank your for that advice I did know a little about that because I've scrapped a couple . yes the makita logo is a stick I would love if I could paint like that

Took apart this TV and cleaned it and painted it and turned out better then I though.

[Makita 6 1/2 circular saw]

Got these two from work both didnt work and I got one working. I just bypased the electronics in it which were burned and also u can't buy new ones for it . What a nice saw to have 

[18v nicad to 18v lithium]

Cut the bottom off of one of my shells and soldered wires and shrink tub . And it works good I just have to figure out how to have it stay there maybe I'll glue it . 

[Makita service manual]

My boss at work gave this too me . has a bunch of tear down or diagrams of different tools . Went and bought some protective sleeves and put all the pages in those and cleaned up the binder . Pretty excited I got this 

[1/2 Makita Corded Impact]

Found this in are parts room at work and plugged it in and works . I took it home and cleaned t up and painted the teal stripes on the side and it works good . Sad thing is idk what model number it is I've tried looking but I'm thinking from the 70s its from 

[Makita 12v Ct226 Two Piece Kit]

Wanted to get into their new 12v line up so picked this up $99 at home depot. I've been very impressed with both the drip and the impact . Definitely use the drill all the time now because its compact and easier to use then a 18v for things but then again doesn't have near the power 18v have . Made a video about it on my channel I reviewed it .

[Makita 10 inch miter 2401b]

Got this the other day and took it apart and cleaned and repainted all except the guard and cleaned all the rust off. Already had the abrasive blade which I want to use the saw for . Took the guard off. I've always been impressed with my other makita 10 inch 2401b so had no problem getting this one . 

[Makita 1/2 Brushless Impact Wrench]

Got this a couple days ago and love it. Took It Apart Some and was surprised on how good it was made. I'll make a video of it and put it on channel . Have Put a little bit of use in with it and totally love it . What a quality tool??
