meflick Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 Hope you are back up and running soon Edward! Hubby has been redoing the shop layout so I have been out for a bit - hope to get started back soon. He has created my own little "corner" in the shop with the sanders and the scroll saws! (I think he wants me to go and stay in the corner and out of the rest of the shop area! LOL!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotshot Posted March 8, 2017 Report Share Posted March 8, 2017 If you are a top feeder, the bottom clamp gets the action. Stripped the bottom clamp on the EX and replaced last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edward Posted March 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 Just received my upper clamp from replacement parts.com today, took about 5 days which isn't bad, and I was still able to use my saw while I was waiting, good people to do business with. edward Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Lehner Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 Many years ago (when I had only one saw) I started stocking the most common parts I needed for my DeWalt saws.... I have most of the common parts.... I also act as a parts house for area DeWalt users if they need a part in a hurry.. Some of the parts interchange with my older Ex-21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ike Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 If there is a Dewalt repair center in your area You can pick one up there for about $13 and have it running the very same day. I replaced one last fall and had it running the same day just something to keep in mind for the next time. IKE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edward Posted March 11, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 Ike there is no repair center in my area, thats why I have to send for the part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
