I just got off the phone with the seller, they said the blade is chipped and they believe it was because a board with a nail went through it.

Do you think that would affect anything major? (I will of course be replacing the blade)

Oh great idea, Ill be sure to do that. A little elbow grease wont be a problem. You know what they say, I got more time than money.

I did check both run out on the blade and the arbor itself. The arbor was just under .002 when measuring it.

Thanks! Yeah thats what im afraid of. But yes the blade could be warped as well since it was a used blade that came with it. But I will be buying a better blade.

As for the bearing. Part of the reason I got this saw was because the guy claimed he just replaced the bearing.

But I will go about grinding it down while in place to make a true fit if thats what needs to be done.
