Any comments? I am considering one. It is about 3″ in diameter, has a circular array of set screws around the edge, and mounts between thrust washer and sawblade on your table saw. Supposed to be able to dial out any runout.

Either you need some new bearings in your saw, the arbor is bent, or you should invest in a good blade.
If I understand the idea, you are going to tweak the blade by tightening/loosening these set screws until it runs true?
I can't picture being able to remove a RCH of blade wobble with this contration. Maybe add some, or move it from one side to another, but get it to run perfectly flat?
Not a hope is my guess.

Spend your money on a *good* saw blade rather than some gadget which will use up a lot of your time, and then most likely will not work. When you change to a different blade, you would have to go through it all over again.
Mr.,
Oh Yeah, it works.
With a fairly decent carbide blade you will get cuts that looked like they have been planed. Glue up quality.
The downside is setup time. And you need a dial indicator. It takes me about five minutes to true a blade.
Lee Valley, (very honourable company from my experience), claims the tool will compensate for an out of true arbor. One of these days I'll check out that claim with a test on my $200 Taiwanese (Sears) jobsite saw, which is pretty much guaranteed to have run-out in every direction.
