Sad to see it go but I've tried like heck to fix the shim problem and was 99% there when I stripped out a set screw. Tried drilling and tapping it and broke the tap. I've spent three days on this old beauty and I'm throwing in the towel.
Sad thing is I just ordered brand new parts because I was going to build a mobile cabinet for it. I've got tons of good parts to get rid of so I can get a new table saw.
Here is what I have...
BT3000 part out....
Used - blade guard assembly - $15.00 + $12.00 shipping
Used - Original (Silver) rails - $15.00 + $12.00 shipping
Used - Motor (runs great - belts in great condition) - $50.00 + $25.00 shipping
Used - Left/Right/Front/Back sides with On/Off switch - $25.00 for all + $28.00 shipping
Used - Rip Fence - $15.00 + $12.00 shipping
Used - SMT - $15.00 + $15.00 shipping
Used - Accessory Plate - $15.00 + $15.00 shipping
Used - BT3000 Saw Stand - $20.00 + $18.00 shipping
Brand New - Front and Back rails - black color with scale attached - $50.00 + $15.00 shipping
Brand New - Wide Table extension kit with hardware mounting kit - $60.00 + $18.00 shipping (Wide table legs not included)
Brand New - Extra hardware mounting kit for wide table extension - $15.00 + $12.00 shipping
Brand New - Router/Jigsaw Mounting Kit - $50.00 + $12.00 shipping
Brand New - Long Rip Fence - $25.00 + $15.00 shipping
Or, take the whole package for $200.00 plus $125.00 shipping. The BT3000 is currently dissassembled and the guide holder has a stripped hole where one of the set screws used to be. The hole will need to be re-tapped with a slightly larger set screw. Also, the reason the saw is dis-assembled is because I cleaned the entire saw. It is immaculate (for an older saw) and completely lubed. I just don't feel like dealing with the set screw issue and especially those stupid shims.
I am putting together my shop in my garage and do not want the foundation to be built on such an old piece of equipment.

-- no really it is, for the wide table extension kit. Thank you in advance for a good deal.
