- A walk through of my homemade table saw before I tear it down to build a new one. This saw was made 10 years ago and has served me well. But it is time to replace it with a fresh build with a few modifications.

Thanks for putting that together - nicely done, as usual! Looking forward to the new build as well :)
Thanks John. It was long overdue, but I figured it was about time to combine some new content with the requests for this overview, Its been a crazy busy fall of 2018......hopefully 2019 will produce some more content.
Ditto
Thanks man!
Good to see a shop-made table saw that isn't all made out of wood! I do note that your blade does not tilt around the point at the top of the table- I know this is hard to arrange, but quite important.
Thank. This saw has now been rebuilt with trunnions anf partly wood. But fully automated. Check it out: ruclips.net/video/Yft8yBKOPAE/видео.html
@@bellevuesnekkeri Yes, I have seen that. I have recently automated a router table, so was interested- a table saw may be next. I see you dropped the sliding table- for me, that is an important feature, but should joint the table at the edge of the blade. I will also drive it from an Arduino & small touch screen- more than capable enough. But metal construction is my choice.
Very impressive. You have some of the best engineering ideas in this category...please post more!
WOW, thanks a lot Greg. Glad you like it, and I will try to put out some more content this year....hopefully
Great to see a new video from you again, I have missed these! Interesting to see this, and I can't wait to see the build of the new saw!
Thanks Kristoffer. Its been a crazy busy fall of 2018, so content creation lost that battle.... Thanks for watching and commenting
Very impressive, well thought out. Best setup I've see anywhere..
Thank you very much Wayne for the kind feedback, and for watching, Hang in there Sir, hopefully there will be something interesting for 2019 as well. Have a great day
You are way too cool with the many thoughts you have put into this saw. Thanks for the tour.
Thank you very much. glad you found it interesting
Great saw!
Thank you for posting this!
Thank you, and thanks for watching Fredrik
Nice with a new video from you, I have missed them! It will be great to follow you making the new table saw!
Thank you Magnus. It was long overdue. Glad you are hanging in there
Glad to see you are still making! I hope you choose become a full time content creator one day. I think you have the most thought out and useful shop projects on RUclips.
Thanks for sharing!
Thank you very much for the generous feedback.......Hopefully I can make new content also interesting. Thanks for watching and commenting
Holy cow, that’s a TABLE SAW. Amazing work! Totally inspiring.
Thanks Erik. I actually dismantled it last week, to make room for the new table saw I am building. You can check out my Instagram page for some sneak previews. @bellevuewoodshop
Dude that’s by far the best homemade Tablesaw I’ve seen, great work 🤠🤠
Thank you VERY much for the kind comment, and thanks for watching. Have a great day
I like that dust hood especially, something we all need because those factory ones with the narrow hose are useless. Great idea!
Thanks Rob. I had to hinge the drop pole to be able to swing it away when cutting taller items, like the cheeks of a tennon, other than that it works fatastic
Excellent build! The crosscut sled is almost like a sliding table saw! But more compact! I love the different adjustments! Great table saw! Nice bird too!
I'm waiting for the new version!
Thanks. it was actually alot wider with a support leg bracing diagonally riding on a rail on the bottom side of the frame. It took up to much space, and I shrinked it instead
@@bellevuesnekkeri Like that! I think it's much better, good decision!
it saves space, especially for small areas! The new one will make this version more perfect! with automatic options!!! It will be more interesting, that's for sure!
Awesome, the best homemade table saw what i have ever see !
Thank you very much
That looks great. Love the sliding table. I need to fix my overhead dust collector and I like your design. That should work for me as well.
Thanks for he kind feedback
Thanks for sharing this Roy, gave me a few ideas for my new workshop. Very nice to see a video from you again, hope we get to see the new build as well :D
Thanks for the kind feedback, and sorry that the pause was a little long. Glad you found some tips for your own shop. there might be a new shop tour as well this year. There has been some modifications that some may find interesting
@@bellevuesnekkeri looking very much forward to it 👍
I am glad to see your video. Awesome saw and speaks to your creativity, attention to detail and genius. Look forward to see your new saw...really missed your videos..
Thanks a lot Sir, its great to be back. Hopefully 2019 will be more productive
Just call me Tom...Looking forward to your table saw build.. @@bellevuesnekkeri
Wow. The new automated saw will probably be incredible
Thanks Ken. No that the cat is out of the box, I better deliver some results here....:):)
Nicely built
Thank you👍😄
Cant wait to see you automated table saw!
Hopefully I will get to implement all the options I am thinking of....If I can get the servos running
Hi Roy. There are many great diy tools/machines made by woodworkers. When I first saw you work (some yrs. back) I realized you are taking this task to another level. This table saw proves that I was correct all along. (I have made my own table saw and router table way before y/tube so I appreciate what's involved) With no disrespect to other makers I regard you at the very top of respected diy machine creators because of your intelligent engineering applications. Have a great day my friend.
WOW, thank you very much for the generous feedback Michael, I really appreciate it. It makes it worth while producing the content knowing people really appreciate it. It is very interesting trying to do something a little different than mainstream building. Not that there is anything wrong with that at all. Thank you for watching and commenting
@@bellevuesnekkeri I rarely comment ( and I never thumb-down ) but I have to give credit where it's due. (Plus I really like your presentation style).
Well done! Very well made
Thank you very much
wonderful to see you posting again Roy! amazing build; looking forward to seeing how you will better it!!! best wishes, Evangelos
Unfortunately its been a long time Evangelos, but I hope to be able to put out more content in 2019. Fingers crossed. I am also exited about the build....I may have to start drawing some ideas soon!!! Have a great day
@@bellevuesnekkeri expensive perfumes come in small bottles... RUclips doesn't like it, but your faithful followers and e-friends do not mind! Take care Roy!
Wow! That's a really neat build.
Then I realized this is an older video and you've made the automatic table saw 👍
Thanks, glad you found them both😀😀👍
So, what are the shortcomings of this saw that you want to build another one?
Mainly that it does not have trunnions. The adjustments are also getting somehow sloppy after 10 years, and I just I hate not having an insert plate to work with angled cuts, due to the hinge point being below the surface. I also want to make the height, angle and fence adjustments digital with servo motors and and an HMI. I got a bunch of linear actuators an a PLC with a touch screen from an old machine we dismantled at work. Also a base with some room to store accessories would be nice. Thanks for watching and commenting Matthias
@@bellevuesnekkeri Just today i was watching some of your older videos and i just love your passion on replicating and even make overkill feature that doesent even exist in professional tools. Just keep doin it please!
@@sugar0000 about what feature are you talking about?
Thanks a lot for the kind feedback. Glad you find it interesting. Some say overkill and too much....I say why not? (especially as long asI use 98% salvaged FREE parts)
@@RGplayer101 Well just whatch his router table for example.
Awesome saw!
Thank you Frankie
Mighty fine build. It will be fun to see what improvements you make. Like anything you build for yourself, in time you find lots of I should haves and it's always fun to start a new project.
Thank you Thomas. Mainn improvement will be trunnions for the tilt. But also servodriven height tilt and fence adjustments.....and a touch display....hopefully
@@bellevuesnekkeri Wow sounds good, I'll be watching.
Been missing you dude. Very excited about the new build.
Sorry ´bout that Seth, its been crazy busy lately. Hopefully it will work out during the year
Bellevue Woodshop Too busy to make videos is a high quality problem.
While the construction looks rough and a little janky, it’s obviously very well put together and solidly built. Bravo! One of the better homebuilt table saws that I have seen. It gives me some ideas on how to rebuild my tiny Dremel table saw; which will have a combination mini Beismeyer style fence with the addition of a rod and linear bearing on the rear, a Dremel router station on the right wing (just like a full sized table saw), and a sliding miter table on the left side. Hopefully it will all come together! (Slowly though it may be!) Thanks for sharing your design. 👍🏻
Thanks, glad you liked it, good luck on your build👍😀
Finally, been waiting years for this vid!!!
Thanks for hanging in there. Glad you appreciated it
Thanks for the video. Would love to see more detail on the fence and railing.
Thanks, glad you liked it. Sorry I did not put more info on these parts. Had to keep it short enough to not exceed viewers attention span
WOW !!!! that is the best looking & best featured home made table saw I have ever see why do you want to make another one?
Thank you very much for the generous feedback Vince, It is much appreciated. Mainly because it does not have trunnions. The adjustments are also getting somehow a little sloppy after 10 years, and I just I hate not having an insert plate to work with angled cuts, due to the hinge point being below the surface. I also want to make the height, angle and fence adjustments digital with servo motors and and an HMI.
Extremely nice !
Thank you SIr
After seeing your Router Table, i wouldnt be suprised if your next table saw would be like a homemade version of a modern computer assisted Felder format saw.
So yeah, im hyped, cant wait to see what youll create =)
He he, you are pretty close actually. I plan on using digital input to set blade height, angle and fence by servo motors. I really hope I get around to execute it this year
A great video. Very informative.
Thank you Sir
That looks like a well thought out construction, nice!
No dado blades for Norway though because we could have a nasty accident... safety first! 😆
Thank you very much. No, it could be a death trap.......dont worry about chainsaws and stuff that people hold freehand.....lets ban the dado stack. Will have to get one from overseas
Think I need to make a dust hood like that! Good to see you again Roy!
Thank you Ty.its been waaay to long. Had a huge house reno going on for 16 weeks.....but you probably know ALL about juggeling that with family and content creation. BUT you did a lot better than me:) Dusthood works great, I had to cut the vertical piece and hinge it to be able to run taller stuff through the saw, like cutting cheeks on tennons. Jus swings up to the left and I suspend it with a bungy cord
I actually wanted to ask about the dust hood as well. You didn’t happen to record a video on that did you?
@@mattprzybylski19 Unfortunately I have not made any content on this
@@bellevuesnekkeri Gothca, no worries, i can discern most of it from the video, was mostly curious about the counterweight. In any case, i always enjoy your videos and your well thought out solutions to everything you do. Keep up the great work.
@@mattprzybylski19 Thats good. I did not plan anything special. Just built the parallelogram, and put on these to heavy steel lumps of some wheels. I placed them in a position where the hood balanced. Good luck on your build, and thanks for the positive feedback
That’s a nice table saw, a lot better than some store bought table saws.
Thanks Jorge. It has served me well.
okay i'm inviting you for dinner but you cant leave until you build me one of these. i like listening to some of the sounds really smooth movement. thanks for sharing looking forward to seeing the new build it will be crazy!!
If you are serving turkey, I´ll be there........glad you liked it, and thank for the kind feedback. Looking forward to the build myself, hopefully it will be a success
The birds actually removed any annoyance from the squeaking! :D
Figured I just had to make something out of it:)
I lol'd when I saw the bird!
Good job
Thank you Sir
Great video. Thanks
Thank you George
I don't know why I would tear this down. looks great and works great, but i can't wait to see the video for the build. great tale saw
Thanks. Mainly because I want a saw with trunnions for accuracy. I also want to make the height, angle and fence setting digital with servo motors and an HMI, for fun.
@@bellevuesnekkeri Interesting. I do agree with the accuracy. I can't wait to see it. Would you have plans for it? I have a unique situation so I can't just go out and buy a table saw. ( I can afford one though ) I live in a town house and my basement if finished and serves as the family room and since the back of the building is above ground I use the space under my desk as my shop but unfortunately the door to the patio is not wide enough for a regular table saw. I tried it, many brands. So building my own to customize it is the only way to go for me.
Can't wait to see the new one! You should consider making Jeremy schmidt's fence... seems like it gets incra-style indexing accuracy in a biesmeyer format!
Thanks. Jeremys fence is awesome. I especially like the micro adjustmenkbob on the end. In my case I am making the fence servo driven, so it is going to be very precise. Thanks for watching and commenting
😂😂 Your “Singing Bird” had both dogs sitting up and listening! Great saw!
Sweet....and thanks for the comment:):)
Awesome , you are a genius
Thanks for the generous comment, and glad you liked it
Subscribed-Liked-Notified! NICE WORK! Thank You for the video
Thanks for subbing, liking and commenting. I have made a new automatic table saw , and you can find it here: ruclips.net/video/Yft8yBKOPAE/видео.html&ab_channel=Bellevue😀Woodshop
Nice one sir please keep it up
Thank you for watching and commenting😄👍
Like your work very much！
Thank you
Great build. Epitomizes the idea: If you're going to do it, do it right. "Overkill" is the opposite of the "engineering" that has made so many modern tools and machines sad shadows of the lifetime investments that older models represented. The notion that tech advances will make early replacement a necessity has been used to justify skimping on basics in many cases. Heavy duty constructions with room for unknown modular improvements is the way to create real value. Love your builds.
Thanks
Love the homag electrical enclosure!
Reuse. Are you familiar with Homag?
@@bellevuesnekkeri I am very familiar. I work in flooring manufacturing, we use their double end tennoners and saws.
@@P8ntbaLLA56 Ahaa, I used to work for a big laminate flooring company a few years back, but we mainly use the same kind of machinery at my current location. Although we produce wallpanels at this site. Just installed a complete new Homag profiling line 2 years ago
@@bellevuesnekkeri that's awesome! They're very heavy duty machines, and seem to be very reliable.
Awesome!!!
Thank you Sven😀
Splendid🥇
Superb
Thanks Mark. I just released a video this week on my version 2.0 of my freshly built table saw. Check it out: ruclips.net/video/Yft8yBKOPAE/видео.html&t=
I was really hoping to see more detail on the linear rail for the fence. Likely you'll use that on your new build as well? I've been wanting to do this on my saw for a long time. Yours is the first I've seen since I came up with the idea a while back. I hope you detail that part on another video. Nice build!
Thank you. Sorry, had to make sure the video was not to long. Most likely there will be no future video on this, but if you check out my channel, it is used in almost all of the 50 videos there. You may find some useful information on it there
Luxus 👍👍👍
Thanks
Genius. 👍👍👍
Not sure about that, but thanks. New table saw build video will be released today, hope you want to take a look
Finally a vid from you
Sorry about that, the fall has been crazy busy, and I have not been able to put out the content I wanted to. Hope to do better in 2019:)
Looks better than the Chinese saw I bought from Axminster a couple of months back.
Thanks
Nice to see a video from you. :)
Will you make a video about building the new saw?
Thanks Espen. It is immensely time consuming recording such a large build. Especially as I tend to build on the fly, and that would make for ahuge amount of Gb´s of video that might not be useful, due to trial and error. So my guess is that I will rather make an in depth tour of the saw and all its features
@@bellevuesnekkeri I understand that! To this day your oscillating beltsander build is one of my favorits! And your "Tiger fence" "show and tell" Is one of the coolest projects! I wish i could see the build process but i definitely understand!
Thanks for understanding Sir
Monster.
What a nice project! Congratulations! Someday I will build my own saw like yours! I have a question about it: how do you deal with the dust in the linear rails? especially the ones for the cross cut cart. Doesn't it mess up with the linear bearing? Best regards from Brazil! Miguel.
Thank you. The dust is no problem as the pillow bearing blocks have "scrapers" (plastic/rubber end seals) so there is minimal dust getting into the bearings. I have been using the saw for close to 10 years without any problems. Good luck on your build
Есть очень интересные решения, и есть еще куда оптимизировать! Очень интересно, спасибо!
Thanks
Great!!!!!!한국어로는 끝내줍니다. 멋있어요.
Thank you
Excelenta
Thanks Isaac
Great job, very good ! how to make system elevation ?
Thank you, you can see some of it from timestamp 1:44 and onward
I'am just learning about these tools. Is there any reason why you would not use a pulling action to avoid getting hit from kickback. And would a cage over the top of the table help with safely ?
Welcome to the hobby. Pulling the piece against you and a cage would help on safety, but completely unpractical to use. A pulling action would force you to lean over a spinning blade, and a cage would disrupt the view. thanks for watching and commenting
Nice build. The rails for the slider are rectangular. I see some that are round. Is there an advantage to one? I am looking to build a slider for my bandsaw. Thanks.
Thanks. Unfortunately I am no mechanical engineer, but I think round might me more forgiving on miss alignment, but dont take my word for it. I have only used square ones with 4 contact points
Veldig kult, godt jobba, åssen funker det med sagspon og linear rails? Trenger de rensing ofte? Har vurdert å lage min egen mitre saw med linear rails, ikke fornøyd med nøyaktigheten til off the shelf.
Takk Morten. Ikke noe problem. Lager "skoene" har skraperinger, så det går kjempefint. Blir spennede. Dokumenterer du bygget?
@@bellevuesnekkeri OK flott, godt å vite, ja er planen å lage noen videoer, håper å inkludere digital readouts på vinkler og stops. Kjekt å se nye posts fra deg 👍
Genial 👏👏👏👏👏👏 .🇵🇪
Thanks
Is your riving knife made from mild steel or something harder like O-1? Thanks
Just regular mild steel Andy
Roy what do you use for jointing and planning. I am starting on building a jointer. Interested in your thoughts..
Hi, I us a 6" jointer with 2 straight knives, and a butchered jointer/planer combo that I ripped the tables of to use it as a jointer. It only has aprox 8,5" of cutting capacity. I would love the DW 735, but unfortunately its not available in Europe, So I am shooting for a DW734. It would be cool to see your jointerbuild
Hey- did you make the arbor yourself or buy online? Currently looking for a similar arbor that can handle wide dado cuts
Hi Kris. I made it from a 20mm shaft, and the arbor flange was salvaged from an old table saw
Unbelievable!!
Thank you very much
Have you experienced any dust problem on the linear bearings? I have a sliding table with rounded rails braced by std bearings and dust gets in the way all the time making the slide kind of "bumpy" which, in the end, diminishes the quality of the cut. Good job!
Thanks. No problems. The linear bearings have plastic scrapers to make sure the profile is cleaned on both ends
Ingenius, as allways!
Thank you very much
Your building another? How could you make that better? Except possibly bigger rip/crosscut capacity?
Mainly because it does not have trunnions. The adjustments are also getting somehow sloppy after 10 years, and I just I hate not having an insert plate to work with angled cuts, due to the hinge point being below the surface. I also want to make the height, angle and fence adjustments digital with servo motors and and an HMI.
Please give me the saw unit /Trunnion assy. drawing with dimensions. I love the way you built it. The linear rail height adjustment would so damn accurate. Also please give me the arbor shaft details(length, diameter at every steps, pillow bearings you used, blade flange, blade thread type ..etc.) It would be really helpful for me.Thank you
Thank you. I no longer have this saw, I rebuilt it to become this one: ruclips.net/video/Yft8yBKOPAE/видео.html
👏👏👏
Har nok engang savnet deg i en periode her, og lurte seinest på her om dagen når neste bidrag fra den kanten skulle komme 👍 hvis det er denne saga som skal få en facelift slik kun du kan gjøre det, blir dette veldig spennende å følge!
(er du forsåvidt medlem av Facebook gruppa "trehobby"? Kunne vært gøy å sette deg dele små biter av prosjektene dine der 😁)
Gleder meg stort til å følge videre utvikling her 👍
Takk for det Olav, hyggelig tilbakemelding. Har hatt en busy høst med stort renoveringsprosjekt på huset, så da ble YT kanalen og verkstedet taperen i den kampen. Denne saga skal kun brukes til lage den nye. Noe kommer nok til å bli gjenbrukt, men satser på en helt ny konstruksjon. Skal ta en titt på den FB gruppa der. Hadde vært artigå treffe likesinnede her på berget.
Probably you know but It is important, for safety reasons, that the inclination of the blade is oriented on the opposite side of how you have oriented it. when you cut, your piece, the one on your side, should not be crushed by the blade when it is tilted. Sorry but my english is not enough to explain well, but online you can surely find a lot of information. Ciao!
Left tilting table saws are most commonly used, now a days, with saws that have the rip fence on the right side of the blade. this prevents the cutoff piece from being "trapped" between the bade and the fence
👍
Do you have change insert if you want to tilt blade?
Yup, that is the main issue with this saw, and one of the reasons I am rebuilding it. It need trunnions to be able to use the same insert , and having the rip fence tape measure being usable
Great!
Nothing more to say.
Thank you Thomas:)
are you having any issues with dust and those linear bearings?
No, not at all. The bearing blocks have scrapers on both ends.
Hey Rod,,, if you're scrapping/selling the sliding table for your new build, pls let me know and I come and pick it up (er i Oslo-området)
The linear rails will most likely be reused on the rip fence. I have not 100% decided on the design yet, but I am leaning towards a saw with no slider thou
hi. first of all thank you for sharing your work it`s awesome. i have a few questions if you have the time, i see you`re using a 12" blade at 5200rpm and very short flanges, you have not commented on blade flex or is it a non issue?, what size bearings are you using? and why c3 (is heat a problem)? asking bc you mentioned it`s been in service 10 yrs and it seems you don`t have any complaints to it, last one the linear bearings that you put on the lift mechanism are they holding well and if so can you give me the specs?. well thank you in advance and if you don`t have the time to answer it`s ok too. it`s been a tremendous help in the design of the tool i`m hoping to be making soon. regards. peter
Thank you very much for the kind feedback. I am not experiencing any flex in the blade. The reason for using c3 bearings is thats what was installed in the pillow block. Normal deep groove bearings can handle 13.000 rpm, so they would work as well. I just figured that it would not harm to keep them in, The linear rail in the height, as well as for the sliding table are from Bosch Rexroth. 20mm for the height adjustment, and 30mm rails for the table. Way overkill, but thats what I had laying around . Glad you found it useful, and thanks for watching
@@bellevuesnekkeri thanks ! :D
Bom dia quero saber se você fábrica para vender, está maquina com todos os acessórios no vídeo aqui mostrado.
Se vender eu tenho interesse pela máquina, sou do Brasil e pago o frete para o meu país.
Why didnt you add scoring blade?
I have never missed it. I dont do any melamine projects, and a good crosscut blade and a tight zero clearance insert keep the wood fibers in place good enough for me
Ok
Chulada
Did you make enough videos of your house Reno for a second channel?
Nope, Was more than busy getting the job done. Renovations are not my first priority when it comes to things I enjoy. To me it is more of a necessity....to please the wifey...... But I enjoy the result, but not the journey
Its advertise to yourself. To show how you can make it.
You could at least turn it on.
If you check out some of my other videos on my channel you can see it in use in the majority of them. thanks for watching
Pretty messy shop.
