I've been woodworking since 1975. I have owned 4 different table saws in that time period. I have probable had the pleasure of using at least 10 different models and blade diameters. Skil saws usually have a 1/2" arbor with a 7 1/4" blade. Larger ones I've never used, so can't say what sizes they might have.
Most table saws have a 5/8" arbor unless it's really old. I have used a 12 and 14" table saw, and they had 1" arbors.
My question is; Why did Craftsman make a Molding Cutter #9-3200 with a 3/4" arbor? It has an arbor adapter for a 1/2" arbor. The unit is tiny, barely over 4"OD with the cutters installed? I have another #9-5211? or 9-5214 that it's diameter is the standard at 7 1/2". It also has a 3/4" hole , but does have an adapter for 5/8" arbor.
I have 2 others that are for only 5/8" arbors with the standard OD. They are all Craftsman. It's starting to look like I'm addicted to molding cutters.
