I like the way you showed us how to cut out the kerf long enough to provide space for the riving knife (then sealed the end). All the other tutorials show cranking the blade up to cut through, but you have to remove the riving knife.
Thanks Sean!
but he removed the riving knife from the very beginning of the video anyway
Thanks man, keep it up! 👍
Thanks, will do!
Nice video.
Thanks!
Very good tutorial. Thanks. I also have DeWalt 7485. I had a little piece of aluminum (I was cutting aluminum) fall down into the blade well the other day and shoot out like a piece of shrapnel. Fortunately I was off to the side and it missed me. I heard it hit the ceiling and wall, and fall down behind the bench. Anyway, it got me to thinking about saw inserts. Seriously.
Lucky 🍀 and thanks 🙏
Very good video brother. But I must say I CRINGED when you did the crosscut against the Fence. That just asking to get Mangled. Cheers.
It’s a lesson I’ve learned the hard way, through a series of comments ripping me apart haha 😂
You've got ten lovely fingers... Check your technique if you want keep it that way😊
@@chevyimp5857 😂😂 Thanks!
After much research and deliberation, I'm about to push the buy button on this saw, I've been watching tons of videos on the various things that need doing to get this saw to sing, the zero clearance obv being one of them. Wouldn't you think Dewalt would deal with this or at the very least offer a zero option plate? Anyway, I've also come across a ton of safety videos and I just wanted to pass forward to you, I saw one saying it was a no no to use the fence as a guide like you did at the end and that the cross sled is the better way. I'm not being one of them know it alls, quite the contrary, just passing info on that I've seen else where so please don't take this the wrong way. Cheers, Mick
Glad to hear your considering the saw, welcome to the brotherhood. Thanks for the tip! Appreciate it 🙏
@@sumeraybuilds at 2:10 I noticed the ruler measure looks like it’s in metric, is that correct? I think every video I’ve seen it in imperial, maybe imperial is for the US version
Que bueno me gusta lo malo que no entiendo el idioma me gustaría que lo hagan en español 🎉
I’m starting to upload Spanish subtitles so hopefully you’ll be able to make sense of future videos
Where did you buy the screws to level the plate
I already had them, but you can buy the same ones here - amzn.to/3JHfVzk
HOw can I get a wood burner kit like you one you used in this video?

Hi I forgot to ask what diameter router bit did you use please?
I worked my way up to the largest bit I had which was 32mm.
Where did you get the letters for the woodburner?
Amazon
Can you raise the blade to its full height with the riving knife in. I can only manage to get it half way before the back of the riving knife pushes the insert out. I’m probably missing something obvious. Any ideas?
Yes I can, you will need to make sure you’ve left enough gap to accommodate the riving knife. The little plug at the end of the slit might need to be cut out and redone so there’s enough room for it
Thanks for the reply. Made one without riving knife. Cut slot by raising blade through insert. It still wants to force out insert when blade height goes past 3/4 of its height. 7485 like yours. 🫤
Just cut the saw opening by bringing the blade up from underneath
Good tip!
Sorry that is for the two holding stubs
Oh I see what you mean, I believe that was an 8mm bit. I just made sure to measure the width of the inserts on the DeWalt plate and made sure they matched.
Thank you for your reply I use a 6 mm bit and it was fine I had a problem raising the blade fully because of the socket for the riving knife knife was much thicker than the kerf
I split the small piece of wood at the riving knife end by trying to lift the blade fully. I drilled a 6mm hole and inserted a glued dowel which has increased the strength
I realised that I would not need to raise the blade fully to cut thin strips
Unless you have any suggestion about widening the kerf gap at the riving knife end?
Thanks again for your excellent video
From Texas, USA: What the hell is a millimeter???
😂 it's a very small inch... Haha
Meat to say could not foul I should read messages before pressing send!
no problem!
