It is important to get the best from your saw, especially if it has decent standard or upgraded fences. The UJK Aligning Jig is a moderately priced, highly accurate jig that is simple to use. On a table saw you can measure five items:
• Align the blade to the mitre slots
• Align the fence to the mitre slot, either parallel or with a measured amount of run-out at the end
• Check the axial run-out of the blade (the side to side wobble you see if the blade is turned slowly)
• Check the axial run out of the blade flange
• Check the axial run out of the blade arbor
Based on a simple mounting bar that fits any 3/4" (19mm) mitre gauge slot, the mounting bar has adjustable spring loaded balls to ensure a snug fit, plus levelling screws to accommodate differing depths of mitre slot. The dial indicator reads in increments of 0.001" with a total travel of 1". Although primarily a circular saw tool you can also use it to set the blade heights on surface planers. An invaluable tool in any workshop.
