My amazing table saw setup

- I share how to make the biggest deal out of a little table saw by thinking differently. Doubling down for maximum cut capacity, over the top dust extraction (O.T.T.), outfeed and infeed tables and more.
If you dig this video, come back with your shovel, there's more to come :)

So many woodworking channels are just rinsing and repeating what others have done, but this man is truly unique and creative. What an inspiration! Looking forward to more.
Thank you!
I can’t begin to tell you how much I enjoyed this video. You are my kind of woodworker. There is so much magic in a shop like this. Think through a problem and create a solution. Sure, someone will sell you the solution, but where’s the fun in that? How satisfying it is to find that workable, productive solution! Love your shop and your ideas. Functional, a little quirky, a lot awesome and uniquely you! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you! Much appreciated:)
Haha, your more stoopid smart than I am. I only got to around 56" rip capacity! I have a Rigid job saw and used my router table as it's sister table/fence (turn 180); use a plywood spacer for my dead spot. Miss my Dewalt, why did I ever think I didn't need 2 anymore?
agreed, 1/32 tapes are for machinists.
Still sounds like a good amount of capacity. I've used a ridgid jobsite saw in the past and liked it, especially the soft start. It also had more power than my 744.
Looking forward to the hanging overarm dust collection device video.
It's coming next!
Hello sir, looking at your videos you are more knowledgeable than me about woodworking or DIY stuff but in my humble experience, you mentioned cutting cardboard and 1\4 plywood, etc for that kind of thin materials using a laser cutter, especially those cheep co2 ones work good. We build custom pet cabinets for indoor or outdoor uses. We cover the insides of the outdoor cabinets with isolation and cover material and that is done after the cabinet is built. the fact that we can cut those thin materials with sub-mm accuracy makes all the difference.
Interesting. Thanks for sharing the info. I didn't realize a laser cutter could cut that!
Nice setup, nice video. Good to see you again.
Thanks Joe!
There is so much improvement to be added. Plus, this is a very dangerous setup. Both saws have no riving knife on them. You can attach Masonite to the 4 sides of the saw and dust extraction at the back port as well. And the overhead dust extraction is badly done. And with 2 saw set up is a overkill. But they are not stopping the 2nd saw from moving when you push a large sheet against the fence. You attach a 2 piece of timber that will slide and bolt with a butterfly nut to secure the timber, then your 2nd saw would not move. And secure an 8" × 1" x 36" of timber to the side of your 1st tablesaw fence, and that will prevent your cardboard from going under your fence.
There are no riving knives on my setup because the Golden Nugget is over 20 years old and it didn't come with one the other saw is set up as a full time dado saw and, well, there's no such thing as a riving knife for a dado stack. I've actually barely ever used a riving knife and I've been a heavy table saw user for over 20 years. A riving knife is most useful for cutting things that close up behind the blade like crooked lumber. If a board starts to pinch the blade I will simply shut the saw down and toss that board in the cull pile because it's mostly useless. Most of your suggestions make it obvious that you either didn't actually watch the video or you just didn't pay much attention. The dust collection works great, the over the top dust extraction works perfect, the second saw doesn't move when I crosscut full sheets and a bad cardboard edge can still slip under an extra board added to the fence. I explained most of this in detail but perhaps you were too busy collecting complaints and pondering suggestions to notice. All that being said, I do agree with the general idea that there are improvements to be made :)
Cool noting is perfect. Try the JessEm set up there good. I must send you a photo of what i did with my tablesaw. And i just use it to rip up plywood block and use a cross cut sled to cut into small pieces. I like your outfeed for holding the plywood as you push it into the saw
@@JB-sz3yw Thanks! You can link a photo of your table saw set up here in the comments if you want to.
Thanks for putting this together. Will be keen to see what you have done with your drill press. I only have a small shop space (6m x 3.6m) so trying to work out how to optimise everything once I've finished sheeting off the walls (nearly there).
You are welcome. I plan to make a video about the drill press cart very soon!
This guy is awesome!
I definitely need to dial in my outfeed table. Its like 1/8 " below table saw. And now i need to make an infeed table. That looks like a great feature.
Indeed. Thanks!
What a great set up. I, too, have used the 7-1/4 blades for years in my Unisaw. Cuts like butter :>). Enjoyed the whole video, Tony.
Thanks, Russ!
Wow, I would never have thought a set up like that - impressive and still trying to think of all the uses :) Keep up the good work - Cheers.
Thank you!
Hi,
I really love your videos! Thank you for sharing so many creative and unique tips! I wanted to let you know you can easily wire a soft start module into the switch box of your Dewalt table saw. I did this for my DWE7491, and it has made a huge improvement to using it (night and day difference--It now starts slow, smooth and quiet). The module I bought was ~$22 on Amazon (brand Exqutoo).
Thank you so much! I really appreciate the information about the soft start. So cool :)
Thanks for sharing the work around you engineered for your shop.
I'll probably copy two or three in my little shop.
Awesome!
I measure in fat and skinny 16th’s mostly. C-hairs when I’m frustrated. Starting to work more in metric- love/hate relationship. Love your setup and your versatile thinking.
Thank you!
I’ve definitely been in this situation a bunch of times, the first time I solved it I bought a System, out of business now, that my portable saw dropped into, it was great because if I needed the space, it would fold up, the next was a trac saw. I use the tracking saw for any sheet good cut over 8”. You’ve got to use some sort of story stick to get repetitive cuts, don’t think you can measure for each cut and put the track exactly on it. My table saw is only for cuts under 8” and that saves a ton of space.😅
I have a track saw but it's far from a substitution for a cabinet style table saw, which is my situation. Using a track saw for breaking down sheetgoods in my opinion, would only be a good option for someone who has limited work space but if you have a decent amount of space a nice table saw setup is a much more practical option for any production work like cabinetry.
@@SlowandExpensive yes at first that was the case, but I rethought the process and now I finish sand and spray the entire sheet because the trac doesn’t rub the surface, and I never lift a whole sheet of ply, all the sheets slide out of the vehicle onto a sacrificial table, are sanded, sprayed, and cut, of coarse the cabinets are full overlay and no dados, when I go for a traditional look I put fluted stiles between the cabs, and every body loves under cabinet lighting so a valance serves as a face frame alternative, some crown at the top and you’ve got a nice trad look. The trac I got from festool has 32mm holes so I put all my adjustable shelves and hinge locations and drawer guide placement in , if you look close at drawer guides you’ll see they have large holes along the cab side and you can buy a special screw that fits right into the adjustable holes, it’s super fast, and makes up for any loss of time
Nice!@@brianhawes3115
Such an interesting set up, so well thought out. That is thousands that can be spent on something other than a cabinet saw. Your cabinet build series is still my favourite on cabinet builds. As a person who is only metric the idea of dealing in 1/16th or 1/8th just hurts my poor brain, but I guess it is just what one gets used to. I look forward to your future videos, especially a Karmann Ghia build. 😁
Thanks so much!
Great knowledge and I enjoyed your video. Thanks for taking the time to share!!
Thank you!
very creative. You are a talented and interesting person. I like how you approach things.
Thank you!
Most interesting as always Tony; I've often wondered why you had two 'small' table saws and not one big bruiser. Thanks for sharing mate.
Thank you, Mark!
Really clever system, I like it. Love your videos, stay safe.
Thanks!
Dog: You quite annoying with that fence 🤣
She's a hoot :)
Great video on your setup. When I read my tape measure i always use 7/8 long or 1/4 short. I have a brother that will call out 27" and little bit meaning 27"&1/4 LOL. Have a great day. Looking forward to the next video.🍻
Thank you!
Thamnks for sharing nice job
Thank you!
Thanks for sharing. Smart guy.
Thank you!
Unique. Thanks for sharing
Thank you!
Are you sure you're not an engineer? You just complicated the hell out of using a table saw, and probably could have spent the same $ and bought a sawstop! I love all the "branding" you mention too.
It's really not that complicated to remove the main saw's fence and use a tape measure to set up for cuts beyond the main saw's capacity. I'm not sure about the extra money you see. Just buying a sawstop isn't magical. It doesn't mean you don't have to build and buy more to comfortably break down sheet goods. Any table saw being used break down full sheets with any comfort needs an outfeed table, more support to the left of the saw and adequate dust collection.
Thanks. Really interesting food for thought!
Thanks!
I did the same thing a couple years ago where I had my Delta Unisaw backed up with a Dewalt portable saw which dropped into a opening on my large outfeed table. The Delta was going to be a dedicated dado stack. it was a lot of custom work getting the track to allow the fence to move while keeping everything filled in on the top. problem is I kept taking the Dewalt to worksites and was left with a big hole in my outfeed table which I just eventually replaced with a big flat table. the idea was great but it wasn't practical for how I use things.
Yeah, everyone has different work flows and it's wise to have things work to accommodate for the specifics.
How awesome 😃😃
Thanks!
Nice video…I use a similar set up,sold my powermatic cabinet saw and just keep using 30yr old DW744. Was going to buy new Dewalt 10” saw, but you can’t buy it without getting the stand…BTW…nice Lid !
Thank you!
you do know thew make a thin kerf 10 inch blade that cuts 1/16 inch kerf. that would give you your cut depth back..looks like a cool set up you have there..
Thanks, I didn't know about those blades.
Finally. Waited a long time for this video. Well worth it. Thank you. :).
I’m not sure how you use that ledge for the track saw?
Second how are the legs attached to the outfeed table top? I didn’t notice any cross or angle bracing.
You're welcome. I will make a video about using the track saw. There are some braces on the outfeed table and there are plugs on the underside that the legs fit over I will show a better look at the end of the o.t.t. video it will be next. Thanks
Fast cap has the best tape measure I've ever used. White tape with actual numbers above the 32nds lines. Only way my old eyes can read a tape measure
Thanks, I may have to try one. My close up vision just keeps getting worse.
If you look into them, you will buy them. I gave away all of my other tapes.
I have the older dewalt you are using. Luv it.
@@LDhusky it really is a great saw.
I am very interested in your dust collection…
Thanks, check out the other videos on my channel for more info
I like your video very good compared to most it’s very detailed and to the point not any junk I’ve been around a table saw for 55 years or more I started using my dads saw at 13 I own a few different ones because I’ve been a contractor for a lot of years
I have just one question.
Do you have any remedies or suggestions for raising the blade on the Dewalt saws I find them very annoying for raising. I can put up with setting the angle of the blade
Thank you for your time and input into our trade
Thanks! The blade height adjustment works a lot better when the saw is clean and the threads on the mechanism are lubricated. It doesn't take long for these little saws to get caked with dust when not hooked to a vacuum and when the threads on the height adjustment aren't clean it doesn't work well at all. If you turn the saw on its side, blow out the dust with an air hose and lube the threads with some wd40 it should work 100% better.
I want to do something similar only I want a decently sized outfeed table to hook them both together. I want my table saws to be opposite of each other, can drop the fence off on one when not in use, just gives extra size for larger pieces.
Have you considered getting a metric tape measure? I still use the standard occasionally but, lately, been using metric. Makes everything easier to break down and measure out. New subscriber, cheers :)
I have never given much thought to measuring with metrics. I'm so used to imperial that it would be tough. I can only imagine the looks I'd get calling out numbers in metric. I should try it just for fun :)
@@SlowandExpensive Honestly, metrics is easier than our imperial system. If you look at a lot of lumber we get today, unless you mill it yourself, it's an odd measurement, meaning, it's closer to metric already. Cheers :)
Thanks for putting this together, amazing creativity, problem solving, and ingenuity! But wait, how many VWs are in that sanding drawer? :)
Thanks!
Nice set up, how ever I would like to suggest you to check Harvey table saws and sliding table attachment
Thanks, I will check it out
If you use one tape exclusively for setting rip width with your 10" stick you could just cut the tape at 10" mark. Then the observed measurement would be the actual width. I say this primarily for those wishing to use the 10" stick for any number of situations as you are probably used to adding the 10". Actually any length stick can be used, just cut the tape at that measurement.
Cutting a tape measure shorter would be a difficult project. If you simply cut the tape it would reel in and then unwind and no longer work, just like when you break a tape. In order to shorten a tape and still have it work you would have to re attach the hook. I'm not saying it can't be done but I think adding 10" to the measurements is going to be a much more practical approach.
Is it me, or do you have more vacuums than tools? 😂
It's just you, I have a lot more vacuums than I know what to do with but I still have more tools than vacuums 🤣
20:08 I couldn't agree more. 32nds aren't only unnecessary but also makes the tape unusable. What a stupid idea. (same with the fraction marks, sorry bro 😄)
3:33
Hope that R brand sponsored you. I counted seven shopvacs and am sure I am off. 🤣
If you only knew 🤣
I have a beard very similar to yours. What kind/type of mask do you prefer?
Most of it stays tucked down my shirt for safety:) I usually use the cheapest N95's with a blow flap they come in a two pack from Walmart for under $8. I prefer the kind with the straps on the sides so I can remove it from my face and let it hang from one ear when I don't need it on. If I end up with the kind with top and bottom straps I just cut them in the middle and tie them back so they are side straps.
What is the dimensions of your shop?
30' x 32'
expensive
Word
I know what you mean by 30 seconds problem(!) Wtf is 30 seconds, I came from metric system try to put your self into my shoes :)
Yep.
Bro you really need to talk less and show more as its working

If that’s a Dewalt job site saw - stupid.
Feel free to elaborate on the stupidity.
