  • 1100 mm depth of cut ?? I think you mean 110mm (25.4 mm = 1 inch). Nice saw anyway!

  • oops, yes.  1100 mm would be awfully big even for a sawmill!

  • wow that is a beast.... how much does that table weigh?

  • 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 would also be intimidated.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • You made the moment for me; thanks for sharing.

  • That looks too scary.

  • 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.

  • Nice saw

  • Dude, u r talented!  u must have some mechanical background!

  • 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

  • Very cool. Where's Dad?

  • Cool, scary cool! I love old school craftsmen; safety schmafety

  • Like father like son :)
