Juggling Table Saws

In the middle of the shop, I have three table saws that are connected into one large table. Two of the saws are a Powermatic 72 and a Powermatic 66. These two saws I use all the time. They face each other; each is the outfeed table for the other saw. Next to these two saws, I have an Oliver 88 which I haven't used as much. In this project, I fixed the wobbly arbor on the Oliver 88, so the blade now runs straight and true. I also moved the Oliver 88 to become the side table for the Powermatic 66. This allowed me to use the fence from the 66 on both the 66 and the Oliver 88 giving the Oliver a fence and making the saw much more useful. I also adjusted the Powermatic 72 slightly so it is slightly further away from the Powermatic 66. I adjusted the fence on the 72 so I have more space to the left of the blade which I found to be more useful. Also, the emergency stop button on the 72 is a little more accessible. The entire setup got slightly narrower and a little bit longer, but I'm finding it very useful.
