          It it were just a mechanical tablesaw, you can always refurbish it. But with the electronics in there, my biggest worry would be what shape the electronics are in after that much neglect...

            Good point. If there was moisture in the circuit, it might just do the old moisture sensing thing and think it was flesh and bang, there goes your brand new blade...

            Hint, if you buy it, don't try it out with a good blade....

            BTW, the blade is missing. Wonder what that says about the last usage??? People don't usually remove the blade before storing a saw.

            If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to treat all problems as if they were nails.

              From a water damaged property? Remnants from superstorm Sandy? not even for $1500. That is crazy to think to ask that kind of money if the saw looks like its not operable...

                It's already been rewired. Look at the stop/start button with romex coming out of it and no strain relief. Also notice it has extra wires in the bottom along with the wet sawdust.

                  It isn't just the blade, the entire brake cartridge would have to be replaced.
