SCM C35 Combination Saw Evolution
I have promised a couple of forum members that I would post more information regarding this saw and mainly the modifications carried out to it on the Forum. There has been a fair bit of PM/email'ing which is not open to all members and therefore not accessable to all (which is the idea of having a forum).
So here goes!
In the beginning, purchased late 2004. No dust extraction, saw guard fixed to riving knife which had to be removed when trenching/rebating.

2x200l drums with truck filter in top drum and rubber floor mat deflector.

Yeah, all pictures from old posts are gone.
Question; when my alocation of pictures is full, what should I do? Re-register as someone else!
Any chance of deleting this thread as it is useless without pictures!
