Here's to another 20! 🍻 This channel is always my first stop when a refresher is needed. Thanks, guys!
Thanks !!!
Excellent video, answers a lot of my questions. I've definitely got to get one of these saws. I actually had a dream last night that I bought exactly this saw and loved it, then your video appeared today. I have no choice...😊
Glad it was helpful!
Well at least it wasn't a saucy dream about Sedge or Big D 😄
Thank you for this Tips Guys , Thumbs up and see you next Sunday Video .
Greetings from Wonderful Country Austria .👍
Thanks for watching! Next Sunday's video is going to be WICKED !!!
I bought my first tracksaw 2 days ago, a Festool TS60. It gave me 'the best cut I have ever seen'!
Great to hear!
Thanks for all the great Festool tips... I'm using my tools much more effectively and am definitely more productive!!
Thanks Joe...🙏
Love your videos Sedge! Great tips and tricks. Looking forward to my first beers with the boys this Friday!
Rock on! see ya BWTB
I always learn something with your videos. Thank you. Kerf cutting! My first exposure to, now I know!
Happy to help!
Sedge you are a hero!
Just doing what I like to do.....Thanks
I go way back to the mid 80’s during college working in a cabinet shop up in North Ga. We were setting jobs when the Atlanta suburbs were staring to boom. Table saw was king back in the day (along with the radial arm saw LOL). I’ve had a track saw system for a skill circular saw in my basement shop for 20 years. I broke down and bought the Milwaukee track saw kit recently and wow what a tool. I love it!
cool
I am leaning towards buying a track saw instead of a table saw for safety reasons, and this video has reinforced my buying decision.
cool.....glad I could help...
Thanks for the great video! Word of the day - undulations. Cheers!
Thanks for watching!.....undulations !!!
Wicked great!

Can you talk about your dust extraction set up? It looks like you have the workstation and the dust separator but what are those drawer looking things at the bottom.
My dust extractor is an old CT55 with the CT cyclone and WCR 1000 Work Center ...the drawers on the CT55 and are actually doors and provide some storage options...The CT 55 has long ago been discontinued ... it was the big brother to the CT22 and CT33 ... it still works awesome !!!
@@sedgetoolthanks sedge! Those additional drawers look nice! Too bad they discontinued that design.
Great tips Sedge!👍 You gotta have a shawp blade to cut hodwood lumba. 🤣
You got that right!
I use the Festool trac saw for all the hard wood lumber I mill, and the best sequence is to join one wide face and then rip a straight edge because that’s how you square it and true it at the same time 😅
ok
Sedg
I have a 18 volt track saw have put a new blade it is the thinner blade and cut great not a problem going near edge of material but other cuts not good as riving knife won't follow. Andy in UK
ok
Thanks for the video and tips! I am about to buy a track saw (still hesitating between TS55 & TSC55 though). I still have a quick question regarding the bevel cuts (I have to do 45 degrees cuts in the near future): Do you always trust the setting of the saw or do you verify the angle before the cut, with a digital protractor on the blade for instance?
Is the scale on the saw trustful enough for good accuracy with assemblies?
I trust the scale...20 years ago when I bought my first track saw I always would use gauge blocks to check the angle...now I trust the scale ... never has failed me... I use a TS60 at home now ...
On the HK saws how tight should the lateral tolerance be? Because the track needs to return smoothly but if it’s too loose it chews up the splinter guard
I just put a very loose tolerance so it does not have slop and still slides back smooth... I think that might be a good video ..Thanks Matt !!!!
Does Festool make a pigtail for the TS saw. I have to tilt saw 45 degrees to connect plug it
They do not
Why not, there has to be more that can use it. You said you have large hands on the video.
Looking for a tip. I seem to find my cuts are not a perfect 90 if my board is not at least as wide as the rail. Sometimes I put a board of similar thickness under the rail but this isn't always possible. Any help appreciated. (love the tips in this video)
The only thing I can think of is putting similar thickness boards under the rail...sorry .....
I have noticed that my track cuts a slight bend in the cut when I join to tracks together and they are touching. I solved this by leaving a slight 1mm gap between the tracks. I think the short sides of the tracks butted together can cause a kink when they are tightened.
Yes they can !!
Great Tips. Sometimes half way through the cut the saw becomes harder to push as if there is an obstacle. I stop, go back few cm and start again and it goes very smoothly again! Never been able to know why.. any idea? Am I doing anything wrong?
When this happens to me over the years I have switched to the 28 tooth universal blade ....... hope this helps
1. I've seen a festool branded rail square from UK. Is it built to a different spec or tolerance than the TSO? If not, why produce it?
I do not know ....
The table….sweet
cool
Duh. Thats how you zero this thing fast. Thank you sir.
Glad to help
So here's a question. Why do Festool and Makita have their short tracks at 1400 instead of 1500? This leaves only 90mm overhang both ends when cutting a 1220 sheet.
there is enough forward and aft to crosscut a sheet of ply with the 1400mm Rail
Thanks for your answer. I may as well throw another question at you. Are there any down sides to using Makita tracks with Festool saws? They are half the price here in NZ.
Setting the depth was something I’ve always struggled with. I mean… I get it. But I’ve never seen the zero out thing. That would be much quicker.
awesome ....
From Canada, question that has not been adressed: how to adjust the speed dial of the saw?
It’s on the left hand side of the saw , it goes from 1-6 .
Hope that helps you, from Cowichan Bay 🏝️🇨🇦
@@troyqueen9503 Thank you for your comment: I knew where the speed dial was located, my question was about how to settle it.
The speed dial is for different materials ..I always slow the saw down when I am cutting plastics.....
@@sedgetool Thank you Sedge, so I suppose cutting 15mm baltic birch plywood must be done at full speed?
Hey!!!
Hey !!!
