I had to replace the table height adjustment gear a while back on my saw and it was a real pain to do it. Yes, it is covered under LSA, but I have no repair centers near by and doing myself was the best option. If I needed a table saw today I would wait till I found a good used one before buying another ridgid myself.

Thanks a lot for all the feedback. Me and the Delta owner agreed on a price but mutual availability wasn't gonna work, so I moved on. This is what I decided on. Site not letting me add a pic. Ridgid TS3650. Cast iron wings. It is not new by any means but the blade has no wobble and the motor was super quiet. Also, comes on Hurc-U-Lift mobile base. Overall, I am happy, though not what I originally wanted.

You will be very pleased with the purchase. I have the next generation of your saw, TS 3660. I bought it when HD had them on clearance several years ago and it has performed flawlessly. I like the idea of the mobile base, it can be moved around wherever I need it in my small shop. Go to the Ridgid forum and do a search for your saw, lots of good info.
I no longer build museums but don't want to change my name. My new job is a lot less stressful. Life is much better.

Funny, I have more $ in TS accessories in my LV cart then I even paid for the saw.
