I've been thinking about building a light duty radial arm saw with a dewalt circ saw, cuz once you take the guard off you can get an 8.5 inch blade on. First of all, have any of you tried this? Second of all, do you think it's practical to design? I'd be using it for cutting plywood shelves longer than 20", which is the max my sliding miter can handle.

radial arm saw's were not best design to start with, not sure I would want to make one.

lots of people lost digits from the sears radial arm saws. i think you can get 125 bucks for each motor you send in.

Yeah I'm with these guys. I've got a Craftsman 10" and I actually got a recall on it a couple of years back. They sent ,e an entire new blad guard with anti kick back etc. pretty cool stuff but I don't use it currently.
