Is it perfect? No, but it's a good starting point and it gave me a chance to test a few key methods, including the pivot / fine adjust idea.

    • Looks like it will be far better than any of the wobbly miter saws, great build.

I've just started to build my own table saw after watching your videos. I've been making things out of wood for many years but never got round to having or building a table saw. Love your work. Top man 👍👍👍

  • No need to explain why you are still nr. 1. I find this a fantastic idea with great potential and guess it Will get a lot of use. You can trow out the mitersaw and cabinet, LOL. On the article you say it's quickly put together and you could refine it , but even so you always make the ' throw together' projects crips and clean and it always looks professional , great and relaxing video to watch , well done !👌👍😉

  • Just when I think you cant possibly top your last project.. you top it. You have some brilliant ideas in this project. I have always thought that wood and metal workers are some of the most creative and adaptive thinkers and you're even at the head of the class in this group. I see some ideas here that could be used in shop built miter saw too : ) I''m going to continue my theory that you're working your way through the issues in order to build your own miter saw. (Or something else most people would figure couldn't be hand built). Genius man.

    @joelwatts9042@joelwatts90424 жыл бұрын
    • I'm a bit worried as it introduces a new error, though it seems smaller: Adjusting the pivot point up or down along the fence to get it to read correctly for right angles, also moves the pivot point closer to or away from the fence. Assuming you started symmetrically, that towards/away movement is smaller than the up/down but it's not zero... the paper scale has to move the same amount towards the fence to remain correct!! E.g. if closer to the fence, what reads as "15degrees" is less than that; and the error is not linear. SO: An adjust mechanism (2-directions) should be on the scale not the pivot, or this (1D adjust on pivot) plus a towards/away adjust on the scale. I suspect the scale is easier.

    • I had been thinking along the lines of an oversized axle-hole for the pivot, square-ish, making a hollow space along that axle/screw. Then correcting positioning in 2dim (up/down along and towards/away), and screwing it tight... which will not hold longer time. So I drill a diagonal channel to each of the four corners of the hollow space, and I forcibly inject resin/glue/... to fill the hollow and along the screw thread, fixing the calibration. [Should it loosen over time but whole concept works, then drill hollow & channel out again and repeat.]

  • I like the whole concept. I can appreciate the rabbets on the sides to provide the lockdown. Too often on a particular commercial sled that I've used, the lock is a bolt that eventually pulls thru the MDF base. The tongue and the ply base should do a better job. I would think that maximizing the radius of the gauge markings could provide an additional degree of accuracy without any significant sacrifice. Thank you Alan
