love the sliding table and the riving knife on that thing, but with the blade fixed so high.. that's really dangerous..especially for ripping small pieces
Although these "projects" are very creative, few seem practical. Its more of an art than a beneficial tool for woodworkers. It would be fun if profitability was irrelevant and time was limitless, I suppose.
I built a table saw using an old 'Ridged' table saw and 'Biesemeyer Fence' I cut out a section for the Ridged size to fit into the 4x8 sheet of 3/4" MDF and secured the saw into the MDF with the Biesemeyer rail. I did replace the motor with a similar 3 horse I used furniture polish on the MDF and the material being cut slid as if on ice
I could cut or rip an entire 4x8 sheet without help, any way I needed
I use to have a custom cabinet shop years ago and that was my table saw I used most often
How accurate -time stiil your machine ?THAT WOOD MACHINE !to me there are dangeros toys !Under presure and hard work i pretty sure they tend to go out accurate!I am right?
I remember my Dad made a table saw like that back in my country, wow it amazing how those things work and how they created so many things with that, good ideas he
I made the base for my 8" Inca saw table from 4 x 4 posts, 2 x 4 rails and a blockboard top. The platform for the 2.5 HP motor was also blockboard and was hinged from one of the rails, with the belt supporting the other end. Instead of a flat belt, I used a V belt which the weight of the motor keeps in perfect tension, though the motor does try to climb up the belt a little when it starts!
future woodgears video---"When gluing your fingers back on, be sure to go with the grain of the skin and as a little helpful tip, mark your fingers prior to digital amputation so you'll know which hand they belong on."
The wooden part is not so bad. Didn't try to lift the rest of the saw. I'm sure it's quite heavy. But nothing compared to the Felder. The base for that one is made of concrete!
I saw a piece in a woodworking mag where a guy made a saw that had height adjustment w/out tilting the saw table. Alas, the blade didn't tilt.
He mounted the arbor on a 4" x 8" plank that was hinged to the bottom of the saw table. He mounted the motor to another 4" x 8" that was hinged to the arbor mount plank. The motor hung by the belt & its weight gave adequate tension to the v-belt he used.
Matthias, in the description link to your dads homemade saw, you spelled homemade wrong so the link will not work. - woodgears.ca/dads_shop/homemade_tablesaw.html
I can see where your "intelligence" with wood comes from. It's in your genes.
Can see similarities between the details of your dad's saw and your bandsaw plans which downloaded last week. Must say that I'm very impressed by how thorough they are.
jeez what id do for a workshop like that!!!!!

You should consider using a clip-on microphone for the wide shots. The audio sometimes is rather suboptimal :-).
