if you didn't know where to look, you would never be able to find where these magnets are located .
shop made parallel guides

shop made festool parallel guides. no need for store bought guides or mft table , save over 1,000 dollars. You can use these on any brand of track saw no matter if they are store bought or shop made
Best design table on RUclips. Travis @Travis Guitars
Thanks, this thing ain't pretty but it is a workhorse. One thing I forgot to mention was to use a louvered grate on the output so you can direct the airflow in one of 4 directions. I have mine directed back.
I bought a track saw NOT to have to use a table saw and you show a table saw project, I rather laught
Rescuing a wood dust shield with a wood spacer, love it! I'm sure many folks will need this repair. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks very Helpful. I also dropped mine and the fan was binding. Fortunately for me I squired some graphite into top of motor and it did the trick. I will remember this tip because I know I'll drop mine again.
This product is made so cheap. It’s amazing what they sell for
Thank you very much.
I really like the adjustment for squareness. Really let’s you dial it in and keep it square over time!
Yes, using the fine thread bolts lets you adjust so you can literally split the line when you make your measurements. I've had this for several years and have yet to adjust it. Very important to hang it on a wall or it will bend.
thank you for this. i too avoid measuring stuff i don't need to.
What do you use to determine that your jig is square though? What are you referencing with, a carpenter's square?
To adjust the square I use a full sheet of plywood and my shop made parallel guides. I had a video where I actually did this but I don't see it any more. To begin I use a track to straighten one long edge of a sheet of plywood. Next I use my parallel guides to make a parallel cut on the opposite long edge.Then I use this square to make 90 degree cuts on the ends of the plywood and adjust it until the cross corner measurements are exactly the same. Try watching the video I made on shop made parallel guides. Near the end I describe how I use all these shop made jigs to square up a full sheet. When I first made and used this thing I was amazed at how accurately I could dial it in. Its been a few years now and it is still dead on accurate. Just make sure you hang it up on a wall when not in use or it will bend if just leaned against a wall. Thanks for watching, hope this helps.
Great review, thanks for sharing.
For better performance, there should be clear space to the inlet of the fan of 2.5-3 times the diameter of the fan wheel. The space you have now is really choking the fan off.
Your correct and if I had the space I would have the size table that would be required. This blower motor would definitely work on something that big.
Plumbers' teflon tape works well as a thread lock!!
Clever! I've been racking my brains for solution like this.
Great fix! My only two cents to add to the ten-cent fix would be to shorten the wooden sleeve a bit to just what is needed to hold the motor in place. Covering the whole motor will act as an insulator keeping the heat generated by the motor built up inside it. It has permanent magnets that will weaken when heated causing the motor to slow or fail over time. By reducing the size of the collar length you've made to about 1/4" or so, it would allow a lot better cooling.
good tip, never thought of the heat build up, will give it a try
@@slabcitywoodworks5513 Hey I will probably just 3d print a part. I wanted to confirm dimension. OD 7/8in ID5/8in length 1/4in??
Ditto on SuerBardly's comment. Excellent tutorial with clear delivery of info. Loved the plywood 'calibration instrument'! I, too, worry about running back and forth to check that both guides are accurately set: too much can go wrong - particularly if you are measuring from the splinter guard edge. Thanks for sharing.👍
thanks for watching
Your ideas are so inventive - thanks for sharing!

What kind of groove did you make into the stud bolt for that clip to hook into? I was going to make something similar to what Paoson Woodworking has for his track saw. Then I came across this and I found exactly what I was looking for. Great idea and less money.
no groove in the stud. there is a bend in the hitch pin that forms around the stud and that holds it in place. I made a video on making the track clips that shows it better.
Hi. Would a 1HP dust collection blower do the same job? I want to build this table
sure it would work, but the noise and the cost of it would make me shy away from it. I see that there are still some blowers for sale on ebay in the 100 dollar range
Thanks a lot from Sweden 👍
Hi, great idea well presented, on the initial set up when the parallel guides are clamped to the plywood sheet and you are setting up to cut the block to the width of the guide rail, can you temporarily screw the plock to the ply and use the plunge saw and rail to cut the block to size?. Thanks Dave.
just came in from the shop after trying out your idea, and it worked great, had to place a 2x4 at the ends or the parallel guides and then the track gauge ( the red thing ) against the 2x4 and then the track on top of the track gauge which is still to wide at this point and finally put a piece of scrap 3/4 ply under the track at the other end near the other parallel guide and made the cut and it is the exact width of the track. The reason for the 2x4 is to have enough thickness for the track gauge and the track to butt against. Thanks for the tip. Much easier and faster than making a bunch of trips to the table saw . And it is a good reason why no one should ever call anything the " Ultimate " there is always room for improvement.
@@ronj1602 Glad it worked, Cheers Dave.
Great video and clever fix! I'm having a similar problem and trying to trouble shoot the motor... do you know the voltage the battery pack is supposed to put out? And also what voltage the motor runs on so I can test it? Many Thanks!
the manual says that the battery is 3.6 volts. Sorry I don't know any info on the motor. I can tell you that after I dropped the unit and tried to turn it on it would only beep as if the battery was low on charge and the same thing after being charged for several hours. that's when I took it apart and saw the little spider web mounts were broken. Taking the motor out so that it was no longer jammed, it spun freely.
Couldn't you mark the magnet faces for polarity before you started? Seems too easy to get them in with different polarities and then you're hoping you get it right on the door. Seems easier to alway put N facing up and S down in a situation like this. To do that you'd need to mark the face of each magnet with a Sharpie so you don't get confused. None of the magnets I have bought have ever had polarity markings on them, I wish they did. It also occurs to me that a Festool Domino machine makes the same shape mortise and could be used provided you have one. But your way works well, the domino would just be faster than the router.
This is genius - simple, repeatable and adjustable! Thanks for sharing!
Nice, straightforward delivery, good project. Thanks for the upload!
I had the adjustable plastic headband just break into off by the thumb screws. Went to my Air Products store and bought a Radnor Perma-Lok ratchet headgear P/N 64005117 and switched it out for the broken one. Factory replacement $65. Radnor replacement $12 and change.
I used to help make trend
Thanks for sharing, clever idea. I dropped mine on the shop floor from a height of about 22 inches. It shatered the spider mounts and the fan blades. It was less than a year old. The Trend booth at Raleigh AAW symposium kindly sent me a replacement, saving $125. I'd sure love to see Trend beef up the fan assembly and install a better battery and charger. It's a sweet unit but it and its accessories are over priced and under engineered.
yup, exactly what happened to mine, dropped about a foot and broke the mounts, thanks for watching
here's a tip, when making your door rails, save a strip of the cut off ( at least 1/8" thick ) to use as the plug material, that way your plug is from the same piece of lumber for a even more perfect grain and color match. thanks for watching
best length for hitch pin clip is 2 inches
Hi there love your jig , one question how did you do the metal pins at the ends of your guides and what did you use . Cheers Garry
sorry its been so long to do another video but I've been real busy on a kitchen build. I will have another video out in a couple of days showing how that's done. thanks for watching
