  • When all you have is a small, contractor-style table saw, breaking down larger panels can become a challenge. In this video I show you a quick and easy way to fix this.

    My high school shop teacher showed me that tip when I was building a red oak dining room table with two leaves some 50 years ago. Some technology never needs to change.

      I have the same issue! I converted an added on room in (yes, in the house) our old farmhouse to use as my shop until I can build what I want. I have to get very creative with what seems, at times, a jigsaw puzzle of moveable carts/tables I’ve made for my miter saw, table saw, router table, etc. You do what you have to though! 🙂

    That clamping the sheet side is genius

  • @glencrandall7051
    @glencrandall7051 Před 2 lety +26

    This would also be useful to cut sheet goods at an angle. Or to cut sheet goods that have an irregular edge which will not run against a fence.. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.

      I'd look at using an L fence to do what you are describing. You'll have to Google it.

    @paulbateman5769 Před 2 lety +2

    I have watched countless hints n tips vids. But I can honestly say this is the BEST one I have ever seen. I'm sure in about a hundred years from now I would have thought it up myself 😁

  • @ScoutSniper3124
    @ScoutSniper3124 Před 2 lety +1

    I too own a RIGID contractors saw. That gap in the table is where I mounted a router. Using the original saw fence with an added-on section of wood to cover the router bit and afford vacuum for chip removal it works pretty good with no extra used space in the shop.

    This saved my bacon last night. I can’t remember how long ago I saw this video (feels like it’s been a while) but last night when I needed my fence to go farther I removed it instead, used this trick, and thought of you Jodee. Thanks for this tip! It has stuck with me.

    This is a great little expansion for someone looking to get more out of an affordable saw.
    For people looking at getting a contractor/jobsite saw, I recommend getting one with flat edges like this Rigid. The edges don't need to be perfectly flat to build an expansion table as show in this video.
    I originally had a Dewalt jobsite saw with bizarre edges made simple expansions nearly impossible to create and attach. I had to settle for supports on the side.

    • @leehaelters6182
      @leehaelters6182 Před 2 lety +1

      On the same subject, buyers should look for a machine with a rip fence that is independently adjustable for parallelism. Two key assets!

  • @danielhayes8558
    @danielhayes8558 Před 2 lety

    I have the dewalt bench top saw and have it built into a workbench making it tough to get a parallel runner on either side. LUCKILY if you have the dewalt at least you can extend the fence past your table and attach it upside down. Then you can clamp a straight edge to this even with the workbench top. This will also allow you to adjust the fence and worry less about measuring and just cut at your measurement line. Wouldn't have ever thought of this without your video! Thank you! one of the best tips I've learned on YT.

    I have a tiny cheap table saw with useless guides, so this tip is very useful. (no need to build complex extensions to cut larger items)
    By doing the same for the other side, I can also start using sleds (my saw does not have rails either). (You earned my subscription. 😉)

  • @leehaelters6182
    @leehaelters6182 Před 2 lety +4

    A terrific and thoughtful technique, as always! @1:25, use best practices and rotate the blade enough to measure from the same tooth each time. This is not fussiness beyond the tolerances of a tape measure; error can creep in in several ways besides the flatness of the blade plate (which should never be expected). The arbor may have a slight bend, or more likely the arbor flange is trued to very loose tolerance. The point being that you want to true up to the actual cutting plane, not how the blade appears to be, sitting on the arbor. Keep up the great work!

    • @WayPastCrazy2525
      @WayPastCrazy2525 Před 2 lety +1

      I think this comment deserves more likes. You're absolutely correct. I've noticed an ever so slight wobble on my newer DeWalt contactor saw, but which was WAY better than the ridiculous Hercules table saw wobble I got at Harbor Freight. I could literally see the wobble in the arbor. This made for such poor cuts that I returned it.
      Even a 1/16” discrepancy in the blade plane over the span of a large piece would be a huge error.

  • @petenelson8136
    @petenelson8136 Před 2 lety

    Nice tip. Whish I had known the when I built a large desk for my son = we used a skill saw and cut it really slowly without a guide board. It all came out ok, but this trick would have made it much easier and cleaner. Love your videos and how you teach.
