      Hey John, its looking really good! Is this now the real table saw? If so do you plan to adjust the build with an angle setting?

    • @jonsama100
      @jonsama100 Před 6 lety +1

      I think you should have done a melamine top as it would have held up to abuse a little better and made the surface nice and slick. It would have also required much less finishing time. I mean from an average joe perspective it's a much better option...the mdf I mean as it allows anybody to have access to the materials you used for the build. Great job as always. I understand this saw is temporary, but do you foresee any of your joints failing on this saw in future projects that may require hefty materials?

    This is so much better than the first table saw my Dad made for me. It was a 3/4” piece of plywood with a circular saw mounted upside down. The homemade miter gage ran along the edge. The fence was clamped to the table. The case was a milk crate. I used it for two years until I could afford a bench top saw. I went through two bench top saws in eight years and purchased a contractors saw. That is still going 20 years later. So is the original circular saw from 30 years ago! Thanks for reminding me of my Dad. 😊

  • @rorschacht8478

    For the hinges alignment you could use CA glue, put the top in place with a perfect fit then open and add screws. Just a thought.

    • @doughaber3330
      @doughaber3330 Před 2 lety +1

      You could also drill 3 holes next to each other in the center of the hinge plate and clean up with a file. You would need to counter sink the slot with a file. Then si k a screw in the middle and start adjusting. Once it's straight and flush, sink in the standard 3 holes with counter sink screws.

      Agreed.
      I have a feeling that John's permanent table saw is going to make my planned purchase (Grizzly G0833P) look like an expensive investment.
      Oh well.

      Alan R - I am holding off on buying a new saw personally. Stopsaw's pattent will expire in about 3 years. I think that the teck will be in every saw as soon as the pattent expires. Maybe even before then.

      @wouty159 Před 6 lety +2

      I really like that one as well. Only his one is much more complex to build than John's saw right now. But given the added complexity, it sure comes with some features that Johns saw doesn't have like a tilt mechanism and a raising and lowering mechanism. But as John already pointed out, this saw is only temporary to build his big table saw which will surely have al those things as well.

    Great work! I have a huge 4x8 foot table saw/router table/saber saw table consisting only of a sheet of 3/4" Baltic plywood. Made it years ago, works great. I hang it on my garage wall and lay it on saw horses to use it. I have a 4 way switched outlet on mine. If mine can produce quality cabinets and drawers, I KNOW yours can. Some day mine will give me a hernia setting it up, I like yours much better.

    John this is simply brilliant. I have a small Dewalt job-site table saw for my hobby shop, and I've been looking at ways to make it a bit more practical for my use. It has plenty of power for my needs, I could use more surface area on the top with a better fence and miter slots. I'm going to look into adapting this build, and instead using the motor/blade from my job-site saw instead of a skill saw.

    • @ridewithme2074

    • @mkbcoolman
      @mkbcoolman Před 6 lety

      I just bought the plans...quite a deal since he included the fence system as well which I was already looking at building. Ultimately, I still need mine to be mobile so I'll have to make some modifications, but that's no big deal. I also plan to build a router lift into mine on the right side, so I think I'll end up building an additional fence with dust collection for that part.

  • @colrodrick8784
    @colrodrick8784 Před 6 lety

    Thanks John. Had to buy your plans after watching the video. I already do have a commercial table saw but I've never been happy with the saw alignment and dust issues in my shed. Aluminium frame for the saw seems too weak to hold the position even after it was properly aligned after much effort. I particularly like the hinged approach for adjusting the depth of cut and getting to the saw itself. This seems like simplicity itself, rather than a complicated build around the saw then the handle to raise and lower it from without. The other thing I was rather taken with, was using el cheapo chipboard for the base components - I just happen to have plenty looking at the garbage bin for their new home - until now. Look forward to having a go at it.

  • @keninthekitchen1562
    @keninthekitchen1562 Před 2 lety

    @4:07 I totally agree. I have a table saw, but I'm, unhappy with how short the table is for in-feed and out-feed, as well as the cut width isn't big at all. I like this design quite a bit. Thank you for this video, definitely inspires me to rebuild my saw to be more useful for me.
