Well I have an oportunity to get a table saw and it will be delivered to my home. the entire cost is Free. Actually I have a friend whose grandfather built the saw in the 50's actually 2 of them and my friends brother has the other one. He had used it and made things with it. He is setting up his Man Cave and purchased a Craftsman saw and wants to make room. He does not want to sell it but wanted to give it to someone who would take care of it. I don't know what I will do but will keep track of my fingers when or if using it. The table is attaches with piano hinge and fits over the blade. The balde does not move up or down but the table is designed to go up and down. I kind of look at it as a possible simple cut wood to better size or folk art. Not sure what I will do with it but have room so helping out a friend.

It's a nice gesture for you to offer to take it, but I would be very wary.  Home made table saws could be an accident waiting to happen.  Does it have a splitter and a blade guard?  Does it have a fence and if so, does it lock down solid and line up parallel to the blade?  If the answer to these questions is no, then it sounds to me like you may be inviting trouble.  I have no idea what your experience level is with table saws, but I advise you to be extremely careful.  Accidents can happen to the most experienced users, operating good quality saws, with all the safety features in place.
