The problem with Harvey is they are sending all this free stuff to RUclipsrs to demonstrate. I ordered a dust collector and if said it would ship in about a month in a half. again I knew it ahead of time so I had no issue. They charged me fully instantly and it posted. A week later I decided to go with Oneida. I cancelled and they wanted to keep 5% for cancellation. I don’t care that it was their “policy”. It handing shipped and wouldn’t for 90 days so I shouldn’t have been charged. It shouldn’t charge until it ships.
That’s the law in MA, but not all companies abide. I notice the same thing when, seconds after pulling the trigger, my wife got a text and turned to me in horror. “Six thousand dollars?!”
I loved this attachment and then found the price. $1200 😵💫 I could think of a ton of other shop upgrades that I need to do before splurging on this. Nice video though! I’m new to your channel and enjoy the content.
I thought it was only the sliding table part for 1200 but it actually comes with an over sized miter gauge then it's not that bad. You have to factor in other real sliding table saw cost in the $8000~$9000 range. I was thinking about the lamello jointers which cost $2000. $1200 for this table, big chunk of precise machined metal, it really not that much.
Not sure if anyone has asked you, but did you have to take off the left wing of your table in order to add your slider or did you tap new holes? Thanks, and great video! I can't wait to set mine up!
thanks for the great video! thinking of pulling the trigger on this. How deep can this crosscut? Thinking of using it to square up cabinet parts so 24'' deep.
Thanks so much for doing that video. I have the 36" PCS as well and am looking at sliders. For me it is either the Harvey or the Sawstop sliding crosscut table. I am wondering why you decided to go with the Harvey. Any specifics?
I actually used to have the SawStop version and didn’t care for the slop in it. I couldn’t get rid of it either. The Harvey is much smoother and easier to tune in the areas that were issues on the ss.
If you do a follow up video, can you show how easy it is to put it on and take it off the table saw so you can use the table saw with out the slider? TYVM
Thanks Alex! As for the bandsaw, I really like it. I had the older Jet 14" (with riser block) but still couldn't hit the resaw capacity that I wanted. This one has been a gem as the dust collection is much improved and the table is nice and big. Thanks!
From what I have found in talking with lots of people on this exact subject is that Harvey actually makes these for SS. And the Harvey comes with accessories that the SS don't. Also, you can catch the Harvey on sale for around $1,199.00 (actually right now). I have never see the SS on sale, ever and I think it's like $1,399.00. or more.
Yes, I actually owned a used SS for a while and it didn’t have some of the features that the Harvey did and I couldn’t lock it 100% to the slider like you can on the Harvey. Agreed, more features with random sales (like right now for $1199.00) and better customer service.
Or you could always do what I did and buy yourself a long table Italian sliding table saw either SCM or Casadei. Then cut 2400 X 1200 sheets up easily.
That’s sounds like a great option but a little out of the scope of my shops footprint! The nice thing about this, is I can easily take it off if needed.
@@CReevesMakes Great video and very intriguing product. (Like you, I have a Sawstop PCS, and so this represents an alternative to Sawstop's own sliding table.) What would be involved in removing it? And, when re-installing it, would that then require more time spent checking that it's still all level and square to the saw & blade? Thanks.
@@dngriffiths8105 That is my question as well. I have seen lots of videos on this sliding table, but no one shows how long/difficult it is to put on and remove. I am hopping he does a follow up soon showing this. OH, just found out this table is on sale right now for $999.60 on their web site till this Friday (Mar 31).
@@CReevesMakes My point is that - accidents happen. That blade brake won’t trigger if you’re wearing gloves. I do like this addition to your saw. Thanks for the video.
Hey Casey great review. Looking at buying my first Sawstop table saw and wondered if the one in the video is the 30" or 36" PCS Model? I have a small shop and wondered if by adding the slide on the left side if you could reduce the table size on the right. Just looking for some advice.
Good eye! No, I actually had two tops to my ACS as I cut through one on accident. I cut that one down and made the mini Outfeed section you see in the video. It is connected to my existing ACS table via some Kreg adapters.
When this table is flush mounted, what is the max cross cut capabilities? I know the standard can cut 48", but I can't seem to find information on the max cross cut when this table is flush mounted. Thanks
That's one beauty. I'm sure you're loving it. Just one question. I'm curious as to the full width of the table end to end with the sliding table. Thank you for sharing that information in the video.
Makes beginner happy

TODAY ONLY.. it is $950 + tax & ship.
About $1,130 delivered
I’m curious with the slider and the cast iron router cable is it still easily movable on the industrial base?

definitely interested in follow up review video. Side question how do you like the Jet bandsaw that showed up in the video?

@@CReevesMakes Thank you. is that JWBS-14SFX?
Casey, that looks like a gret addition to your saw! Do you know if they have other versions available for different saws?
Thanks Al! It is! The table has universal bolt patterns for a variety of saws OR it can easily be drilled.
@@CReevesMakes Awesome! I gotta get something like that for myself!
Where can I buy it?

Wearing gloves while using a Sawstop defeats the reason for having a Sawstop, doesn’t it?
So does not putting your hands near the blade. 😏
@@CReevesMakes My point is that - accidents happen. That blade brake won’t trigger if you’re wearing gloves.
I do like this addition to your saw. Thanks for the video.
@@markshipman4864 if the blade goes through the gloves it will trigger.

Gloves while using a table saw, you can't be serious.

What is that out feed table in your saws top? Do you have a video on that or is it purchased?
Actually that looks great. Pity they cost more than my TS did though! With shipping and taxes to France it’s over 2000euro! Bummer
Oh wow! That’s crazy expensive! Sorry to hear that!
Interesting MFT outfeed table. Is that just an out of the box MFT sitting behind your Sawstop?
Good eye! No, I actually had two tops to my ACS as I cut through one on accident. I cut that one down and made the mini Outfeed section you see in the video. It is connected to my existing ACS table via some Kreg adapters.
