I never see Metabo v Rage 5. A far better built machine than the Rage 5. I believe.

An excellent build JP, looks the bees knees 👌👍. Bo is gorgeous and a distraction, I miss what you’re doing 🥰😂😂.

Great video JP! Loving your work.. Hope you're as happy with this project as we are with your videos 👍

Anyone tried these on sheet metal?

Enjoy your videos always detailed information. Could I ask you what is the model number of your Titan nailer and what is the maximum length of nail please.

Nice build and review JP. Take care & stay safe.

All looks very efficient for use of space and ease of working . . . but a little bit naughty with the yellow 110v cable!

Nice one JP. Only thing missing is a fold up support arm for when you have longer material cuts to support on the out feed side. Will be giving this a go in Autumn and will also add a dedicated vacuum into the cart. I hope Banggood send you their new track hinge for using on worktops for a review soon. Looks good but my track (Bosch) is not listed as supported and they do not give enough information online to figure it out. Someone did ask online in Q/A but just got the reply figure it out with the information provided! Has a great price compared to other brands like Benchdogs.

Looking good. Clever solution for levelling. A truly cunning plan. A Baldrick reference and a what could go wrong in 1 video which reminds me of old school Top Gear🙂

Nice well presented video. Very handy thanks.

Can you get one? Rage 5 is the latest version in OZ. Which doesn't stack up against the Metabo. Too much flimsy plastic on the Rage 5.

That is a cracking workstation JP. What do you think to a melamine topped torsion box for the router table part?

Hello put a Decibel metre on the saw ?.let us see it when you start the Saw

The orange plate insert can be improved by cutting 6mm mdf and fitting it into the grooves of the plate underneath. Or you can use filler foam and slice it to fit. Both work well. Resin too is good. I used the mdf originally, but now I have an Evolution zero clearance plate.

Great design. Narration too soft, music too loud, video sometimes too jerky, some details not clearly visible. But, I subscribed anyway. Likely to build this, or a close copy.

Love that

Early concept was the Ryobi BT-3000 with dozens of accessories like extending rails for 4' x 8' sheets, router/jigsaw attachments and even a vacuum table.

As far as i’m aware all table saws sold in the UK are designed not to take dado stacks as they are deemed to dangerous

Good review. I have been considering adding a laser head to my big CNC machine- but most of the power ratings are fiction. A genuine 40W LED type is great- I did not want to fuss with CO2 types. As there would be hassle swopping heads, I have just bit the bullet and ordered one of these- that will force me to make room for it. I hope it will fit in my CNC chamber, and that the vac system will double as a fume extractor. We will see... Thanks for the steer.

Great video as usual. I have the 22w falcon and use it for all sorts of things.½" ply cleats on french cleat storage down to engraving. I haven't managed to set anything on fire yet😂😂😂😂.the other day I had set it going and meanwhile started my Traeger, when it starts it puts out quite a lot of smoke. I looked up ,saw the smoke and thought garage was on fire LOL. realised it was Traeger, at one point your work looked sooty this is normally not enough air, I have air on all the time.

🥰It feels funny! The puppy coasters are my favorite!

Looks fun

Hey JP. Nice to see Trumptons Blue Watch in action again! Lazers aren't something I'm interested in, but nice to see what you managed in a short space of time 😊👍

Interesting Diversification. I still think I would prefer a CNC rather than a laser, but it went a long way to show what could be done . Cheers. PS, Did you know you got a positive call out this morning on Workshop Banter Vlog

Is the lift and plate compatible with a 'full size ' router?

Looking good JP.

Evolution saws are ok if you throw away their shitty blades and install a decent quality blade but that just adds to the expense so prob better to buy a decent brand jn the first place

Great breakdown of the pros and cons. For me the table saw mainly scores for doing rips, especially if the rip is very thin, or you want to quickly rip a large number of pieces to the exact same size. For just about everything else, and especially with sheet materiel, the track saw is just easier in terms of handling, and it's also much better for doing scoring cuts on laminates.

The woodworking act says that a guard must always be used, unless it's impossible to do the task with it fitted. So it's perfectly legal to remove the guard to do a dado cut, because you can't do such a cut it with the guard fitted.

Thanks for the comparison, i was going to biy this but then second guessing against the Rage 5. So this is very useful information

Brilliant job and attention to detail. I'm going to "borrow" some of your ideas since they are fantastic. Love the thunderbird reference!

That looks to be an excellent router lift and fence JP. The workstation is coming along very well. Is there a particular reasoning behind the use of furniture board rather than say plywood or MRMDF?

An excellent project JP - looks really great. Can't agree more about chamfering with a block plane - much more satisfying than a router.

Hi JP - many thanks for the video. It was interesting to watch because only last month I made a router table and fitted the same lift attachment and fence from Banggood. (i have the dewalt router). I had a number of similar issues - made a router error when cutting t track slots - my clumsiness but the mistake is cosmetic only. My top was about 26mm thick so I decided to buy some longer bolts and when mounting the plate I made the same mistake and initially put the levelling screws in from underneath. A couple of days later when I was struggling to level the plate , the mistake dawned on me !!. I have made several purchases from Banggood and been delighted with quality but lack of instructions sometimes a problem . CZcams comes in useful to see what others have done. Your comment about the plate being a tight fit is interesting because Dennis from the Hooked on Wood channel thought his adhesive template was slightly loose- maybe they have resized it . I continue to enjoy your channel - keep up the good work. Regards

Hello! I saw that you have the diameter of your router is 65mm. What is exactly the name of your Makita router? I am going to order exactly this router lift and I want to buy a router that fits. Its hard to se on manufactures sites exactly the diameter of the router. Greetings from Sweden

Link to the router lift. Regards JP www.banggood.com/custlink/K3GiGdn6ey

On bangood it gives 2 sizes 65mm and 69mm what are these measuring?

Hey JP great vid again. Really liked how you used feet under the top surface to dial in the height to match the saw. I think I will now make something similar for my Bosch table saw. I think I will make the router section wide enough to allow a Bosch AdvancedVac 20 to fit under which can work for the two items on the cart. I built two of these Vacs into my main Workbench. They are great and you plug in your tools to these and they automatically power on and off when the tools start/stop. I did consider using blastgates and pipes to split one Vac but all these parts add up and the Bosch Vac when on special on Amazon cost me €92. Also whenever you move the cart you take the dust extraction with you. Maybe something to consider on Cart V3.0. The nick you made with your router is there to remind you every time you use the router to be careful. Better to nick some wood than your finger.

Looking very good, didn’t get the adjustable feet to start with 🤪😂.

YES!! Great video! i've been looking for some guidance on install since buying the enjoywood lift.. I like that you made the top removable, at first wasn't sure of the purpose, but after seeing the ease of access, it made sense. Going to check out how you installed the fence tracks.. Oh yea, what lights do you have mounted above, they seem to flush out any dark areas in the shop.. Many thanks again!

JP's Small Barn Fine Workshop Furniture and Sawdust Emporium. Nice build. ICR to the clumsy slip with a power tool. Take care & stay safe all.

Brilliant JP, that lift looks like a quality bit of kit for the price 👍

Router base is coming on well JC, it’s a shame about the nick out of the top but it’s nothing really. Thanks for the video.👍👍

Hi - nice video and looking forward to the router lift install. I today purchased this lift after your reccomendation from Banggood. thanks again and I'll keep an eye out for the install. cheers

Not available in the US. But I just bought the 6 piece kit from Amana and really like it. Whatever one you buy make sure it has the ball bearing so you don’t wreck the wood surface and also carbide cutters.

Very thoughtful I loving it.
