- Table saws machines are a culmination of several different ideas, packaged into a machine that has no equal in the shop. There are so many tips, tricks and hacks for these tablesaws that it would take several videos to get them all in. Today we're going to look at 12 (and maybe a 13th?!) tips that I personally use in my shop.
Because of the versatility of table saws, we’re going to look at 3 different sets of tips. We’ll look at fine tuning which will give us the cleanest, squarest cuts. We’ll take a gander at a few jigs and a push blocks as well as a few little simple hacks that I think everyone should know.
Are you ready?

Yours is the only woodworking channel I know of that is dedicated to providing education that is functional, coincise, and truly applicable to any woodworker. Your tips are not just how-tos, they successfully transfer real knowledge and deep understanding of craftsmanship. Keep it up!
This is a great compilation... and one I actually have to pay attention to now ;)
Enjoyed them all and the links to other interesting stuff
I think the U Bolt trick is an absolute winner! 👍
I think moving the rip fence to the miter slot and checking with your fingertip is the best tip.😊
I like the drill bit gauges. Lol I never thought to use those before
I have yet to watch any of your content where I didn't learn something. Keep on rocking!!
Thanks 👍
Thanks, these are great tips.
Thank you
Great tips
Dude… good stuff
Thank you so much for continuing to put these videos together. They are extremely helpful in building skills. Thank you!
Rob you are one of the best and I always watch your content as soon as it is released. & of course, there is always new things to learn from. Keep up and wishing you the best.
Thanks a bunch for all the tips and tricks, Rob! 😃
Great info as always!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
All very helpful, gotta watch a few times. Thanks so much. Stay safe…….
Very well presented. Thanks for all the tips & trick. I enjoy watching your videos. I learn something new every time. Great job.
Another great video with valuable information! The UBolt tip is one of the best!
The one tip I really need is how to keep the fence on my Rigid 3650 straight to the miter slot. I have tried every trick in the book: Locking 2x, pushing the fence towards the table as I lock, changing out the plastic pads for bigger ones... The fence is completely random every time I lock it down. I am thinking of changing the whole fence system out for a Very Super Cool Tools fence, but that is such an endeavor.
love the tip for adding splines to mitered frames without the use of a jig. very handy. when it comes to tear out, i find that, on pieces where it's important, SLOWING DOWN the blades' movement through the wood just before it exits makes a big difference. it won't eliminate tear out, of course, but the results are a noticable improvement.
That was a great collection of tips. Thanks.
Great video...I enjoy your videos. I like making jigs and homemade tools
I liked them all. Thanks for sharing
Any ideas on a zero clearance insert for a Hitachi C10FR job site 10” portable table saw?
Keep up the good work!

Great stuff as always. My only apprehension is the approach to square dowels. The way I think it’s it’s shown leaves the work piece between the blade and the fence which could lead to this square dowel turning into a projectile that could cause serious injury or other damage. If I’m misinterpreting this, please let me know. I really think your channel is incredible and love learning stuff from it.
Rah rah raw!
Please show your outfeed table and how it attaches to the Rigid table saw. Thanks.
all of them
Ekspecially!
At 12:08, the grain direction of the spline is wrong. It should go perpendicular to the miter cut.
Nice tips. But my favorite part of the whole video...
You see, I am not a pro. I am a retired guy who has been self improving on mediocre skills for decades, making me pretty good with my tools. But I am not a pro. I am a guy who bought a distressed foreclosure to live in and fix up 15 years ago, and found that process to be eternal, because by the time you get to the end, it is time to do some of the early things you fixed again. So I use my tools a LOT. But I am not a pro.
Did I mention that I am not a pro?
Because you see, I bought a new table saw. Of copurse, it is a DeWalt, because that is what I buy. But it s not a big one (because I am not a pro). It is a perfect sized (for me) jobsite table saw that I can fold up and stow in order to use my garage for my cars when I am not working on the house (because I am not a pro).
Not long after bringing my table saw home, I did something that ended up with my blade spinning too close to my fence. I don't even remember how I did it, but it put a mark on the fence in the shape of the top portion of the blade. I have been using it ever since, and it does not seem to affect my straight cutting lines. But in the back of my mind, I have continued to ponder "is that scratch on my fence causing my cuts to be off by some tiny unit of communist finger math (metric)?" I don't let that ponderance bother me too much...but it is always there. I was considering buying a new fence, just to alleviate my doubt.
So, my favorite part of this video is the one where noticed that your fence has the same EXACT mark on it. Since you are giving interweb advice, I assume you ARE a pro. Now the back of my mind ponderance can be replaced by "If it's good enough for the pro on the internet, surely it is good enough for me."
This is a thought that will repeat in my mind a thousand times in the future, bringing me a peace of mind that I really don't deserve. So for this, I thank you.
Why would I cut a rebate? They are worth money!
Dang it guy, your hand holding a support thing-ma-jig to hold down the piece being cut was too close to the blade! I’m referring to one of the last sections of your video.
Yet, your material is good. How about slowing down the action a bit, as it’s too fast to always follow without having to rewind.
The most important tip is not in this video. Safety FIRST!
Never! Work on a table saw with a long baggy sleeve shirt. Most table saws run in the 3,000 to 4,000 rpm range and can grab your sleeve pulling your whole arm in to the blade faster than Bruce Lee.
