    Greetings from Jamaica. I built a functionally equivalent crosscut guide twenty years ago when I was refurbishing my present home. In spite of having a radial arm saw the parallelogram linkage of this guide proved its worth by being easily portable to anywhere on the job-site.
    Your guide is beautifully executed and the logical conclusion for the execution of mine which I gave away to one of the carpenters who helped me with my construction project.

      Eurekazone easy one was a very thought through system that started with a track bridge. It was developed into many other aspects of woodworking, but unfortunately failed in my mind because of shipping costs. Kreg has since released a version of saw guide that will do this as well for much cheaper, but with drawbacks. This is a decent attempt but also has drawbacks from not being thought out completely.

    Both the pantograph concept and the side-mounting of the guide blocks is genius. Many of us have an "L" shaped rip guide made of wood, but suffer from it's inherent drawbacks which this design overcomes. And though I'm not a bee-keeper, I find your videos on them fascinating and I enjoy learning about them. Wishing you all the best Max, you deserve nothing less!

    Living in Hungary, I have recognized the salvaged material, I have used lots of it to build sturdy lids for plastic construction industry tubs that now feature as temporary storage in my home (until I have money for proper furniture). I applied a natural wax paste to the non-lacquered natural wood verneer side, which makes it look pretty natural and has a nice tactile feel. It is also sturdy enough to sit on. ;)

  • @trischas.2809
    @trischas.2809 Před 5 měsíci +11

    The box extensions move quite a bit under operation and would benefit from a piece of triangular bracing to give them more rigidity. That will also help to prevent twisting of the guide rail against the body and prevent problems later. While fiberboard on the extenders is ok for prototyping, it will age and deform under stress and age.

I do have 600mm length of extrusion from another project and I got 3D printing capabilities which will enable me to create a version of this system that'll greatly accelerate my working speed. Great work, thank you for the effort put into the project and the video explanation!

    I've been scratching my head trying to come up with a system like this. Your solution is fantastic in its simplicity: a traditional homemade guide rail coupled to a pantograph. The only tough part is finding a big chunk of caprolon, nylon, etc., since I don't think wood is an ideal material for this purpose.

    • @Advoko
      @Advoko  Před 5 měsíci +4

      Oily wood would work but a polymer would be better as it doesn't change its shape with moisture changes.

      @carlgradolph9676 Před 5 měsíci +3

      Yes, I live in a humid tropical environment where wood behaves poorly. so I searched online for nylon bar stock. A suitable blank was a bit pricey for my budget, but then I remembered that somewhere in my junk collection I have a few chunks of HDPE or similar material. The trick will be finding them amidst all the other junk!@@Advoko

    PSA: For the DIY Table Saw, Please Create a DIY Blade Guard with a Splitter!
    The splitter or riving knife is an essential safety device on table saws. A blade guard will prevent accidental injuries by covering the spinning blade, adding an extra layer of safety.
    Without a splitter or riving knife, "table saw kickback" becomes much more likely. Your workpiece can get caught by the back of the saw blade, pulling your fingers and hand into the spinning blade at lightning speed. This can also shoot your workpiece towards your face or torso at speeds exceeding 150 km/h!
    Please, save your fingers.

    A left bladed saw will allow you to make longer rips. Maybe have 2 jigs . Right blade saw for safer crosscuts, left blade saw for long rips. Love the parallelogram, thats genius. I use a left blade cordless saw with a 3 1/8 inch cut depth on two different guides, one 8 foot and one 5 foot. I can put an 8 1/4 inch blade on my Flex 24V rear handle saw . I may buy the Makita 40V rear handle 10 1/4 inch saw that would give me a 3 3/4 inch depth of cut. I prefer left bladed saws for better view of the cut line. I realize it is more dangerous though. Your jig is awesome. Thanks for sharing the concept.

    Informative and idea driving video.
    I have a large 8x4 workbench but because I need it for multiple uses I decided to go with Anti-luce bolts, so, I can remove and add tools as needed. The saw is a great Idea that I can modify to suit my needs as I have been looking into devices that are already set every time I wish to use it.
    I checked out the KLT/Euro boxes and they are surprisingly cheap, and that's saying something for the UK, as, we are known as Rip-off Britain.

    Festool can surely make a tool like this, so can any other tool company, they just wont, they in the business of making money. Thx for your video and sharing your knowledge.

    Very clever. Thanks for sharing your idea. Affordable ready made solutions are usually very shoddy quality.

    Max...just an FYI for your viewers who would like to save a couple bucks, that rail you made from square aluminum channel, is essentially the top rail of a hanging louver blind for sliding glass doors. I've been using these for 3 decades for straight edges for breaking down sheet goods. I once was a painter and maintenence man for an apartment complex. Whenever I would have to replace a slider blind destroyed by a tenant, I would strip it down to just the aluminum rail. It's essentially exactly what you've made and can often be found in the dumpsters of apartment complexes. And if you just make friends with either the maintenence crew there or the attendant at your local waste transfer station, I'll bet within a week they will have put aside 2 or 3 for you.
    Just a friendly tip.
    Thank you for the videos.
    Keep them coming.

    Great desing. Very clver solution. I built and regularly use a similar track build (DIY) using POM sliding blocks with mine being double sided, right side of guide ride for 90 º cuts and left side (right when turned 180º) being a 45º guide but your pantograph mounting is great to hold pieces to be cut. Well done. Greetings from Paraguay.

      What is. ( POM ) sliding blocks

    • @momentsPY
      @momentsPY Před 4 měsíci

      POM =Polyoxymethylene (POM), also known as acetal,[4] polyacetal, and polyformaldehyde, is an engineering thermoplastic used in precision parts requiring high stiffness, low friction, and excellent dimensional stability. As with many other synthetic polymers, it is produced by different chemical firms with slightly different formulas and sold variously by such names as Delrin, Kocetal, Ultraform, Celcon, Ramtal, Duracon, Kepital, Polypenco, Tenac and Hostaform.

    This is a pretty cool system. The only thing I feel like it's missing to fully replace a table saw is the ability to accurately and conveniently adjust the depth of the cuts.

    Very ingenious my friend. You did an Exquisite job. Don't be surprised if you see other companies copying your ideas and using them. You should consider panting them before some SOB company does before you do. Keep up the good work my friend.

    Looks good. I kind of want to make a small one and use it as a radial arm saw of sorts. This seems to make up a lot of the shortcomings of using a circular saw for general cuts and could surely be improved to make up for any inconvenience left. This could also take the place of a track for a panel saw, but with the added benefits. Easier to line up cuts, clean edge due to it being on the cut's face, etc.
    (Video asked, so here's some stuff that popped into my head)
    Smaller version where instead of attaching to a stand of some sort, it's just another board that way it could be conveniently toted around/used without a stand
    Some form of possibly moving/removable fence/reference surface on the inside (if you're on a jobsite and the smallest thickness you'll be using is 3/4th inch, not being able to close it smaller than that isn't really an issue for example)
    Spring loaded or some form of cam/clamp that can apply pressure after it's closed to keep it in place for smaller pieces

    I would add an angle guide/rail to accurately position the product for cuts offset from 90 degrees. Maybe with a rail attached on one end. While the other end spins on a guide with some sort of clamp. This tool is extremely impressive. I am inspired to make one of my own.
