Re: Sawstop slider?
I went from a 52¡± regular SawStop to a CF531. Pretty much same footprint and the J/P fits in the same space. The slider on the SS is too small and too far from the blade to be much use.

Re: FB 640 bandsaw not starting
Thanks guys, appreciated. After measuring voltage and mapping out the flow, it looks like the issue lies in the solenoid. It's fed by two of the three legs, but no voltage is coming out of the
