Shaft Runout 1/4 is acceptable at +/- 0.005 (thousand inches). At the end of the assembly, where the blade or other tool was to be placed, the runout was between 0.005 and 0.015. You can actually see that it's deformed. This is totally unacceptable for a circular saw blade that requires very little runout. It would be ok for another instrument if you could handle the vibration.
