Periodic Tool Checks

[stevem]

every so often(weekly in my case) check the various fasteners holding your equipment together

i regularly find loosened fasteners on my tablesaw particularly on the stand and recently i used a router thats dedicated to my dovetail jig and the collett was loose

shop clean up now includes grabbing the air ratchet and socket set and going around the power equipment and checking

another hint: used that tablesaw blade a lot?, take it off and clean it, oven cleaner works in a pinch but there are other cleaners too
