Omg, I just replaced my pullies and tore the whole thing apart. Your trick to just turn the saw to 45 degrees is BRILLIANT. Just wish I watched your video before I did the work.
Just an FYI... the Craftsman 113 series table saw never had a "riving knife." What you removed was the guard & splitter. On a brighter note, a set of machined pulleys and a link belt (i had the green one, too) was a great upgrade to that saw.
Fair point, honestly I never really knew the difference until I just looked them up. Thanks for pointing that out and you're so right about the pulley/belt upgrade. Night and day difference!
I bought mine from in-line industries, but it seems like they don't carry them anymore. I measured the pulleys and these are my recommended replacements. amzn.to/47gr3N8
