    Default Converting a Radial Saw to Router

    Can anyone steer me in the right direction to find a supplier for the parts to convert a radial arm saw into an overhead router (1/2" collet) ?

    Live oak,
    the motor won't spin fast enough to get a half decent finish with a router bit. I'd be looking at turfing the motor of the saw and mounting a bracket for your router that still allowed you to use the bevelling capacity.
