When you opened it up - the first thing I saw (no pun intended) was that all the dust/grit etc from the blade would be thrown straight at the (open) motor cooling slots. I think a 'sealed' motor for this set-up would have been a much better choice.
It looks great, but the speed control looks a little weird. I also wonder if they could have gotten by with only one motor? Still, much better than anything else I've seen lately.
Overpriced for what it is ! £30-£40 is more on the mark. You can bay an Evolution Fury 6 for this price, which if you don't know, is a table saw and chop saw combined, !
Hmmmm, a cutting disc costs a few dollars per dozen, would work in any drill. Far cheaper. I wwas curious if this table saw with the carbide tipped blade would cut brass sheet of say 0,5 mm. I don’t think so.
Lol, I was gonna say "Cute" as well... Not sure, have to look, but I think my wet tile saw will do all that (El Cheapie). But certainly would be handy & hadn't thought about it. And, it think Dremil has one too... Thanx !
It may be small but without a crown guard, fence and push stick this gave me the heeby jeebies. I will qualify that: I am a carpenter so used to much larger tools but as a boy I cut through the side of my left thumb when a small circular saw blade in my minidrill kicked back. Timber can kick back for several reasons but with an unguarded blade even this small machine could put one out of action for a while.
I wish there was a model maker's saw that had good blade guards, good blades, good miter assembly, easy to use speed controls, and enough torque to do is jobs right. It's hard to determine whether this saw is it.
Welp! Its "not unusual" to want these things. I think it will be a GREAT opportunity for YOU to machine and fabricate one and show us all your results!
Look up the "Byrnes 4" Table Saw" here on RUclips. I've had my eye on it for a while myself. It's an expensive machine but does appear to be built for precision work rather than just for use as a toy.
Great Idea to make your own tool / tools. No way to match the cost, but if you are doing this as a hobby, cost is probably not as much of a factor as the experience and the journey. Value is mostly in the inspiration sparked by the idea of the tool rather than the tool itself.
Great review, thanks! My take away has nothing to do with the saw. I have a bench grinder setup with a diamond side cutting wheel, specifically to sharpen tungsten for welding. It never occurred to me that such a wheel could be really handy for sharpening tiny tools. Huh! and thanks again!
This looks like it could be a great project to build for electronics work (like circuit boards and enclosures), and maybe roughing the small stock for model engines, but I'm not so sure about using it for grinding tools. Thanks for the look at it :)
When I saw the title and thumbnail, I thought this was a saw that you had fabricated.

thanks for the review, saves me buying this crap
MYFORDBOY is really showing how to down Size your workshop
At this rate you will be able to do all sat at the kitchen table.
'The blade guard is a bit crap!' Don't get too technical, will you? 🤣

Easier, and probably cheaper, to fit 2 motors than have gearboxes and bespoke shafts
It's purely controlled by DC power supply. Like my mini sand belt thing
Just need a mini planer and router table to make a set. Cute. Should cut aluminum?
The design of this table saw really danger.

Try to cut PCB
Price.?

I thought you made this. Still very cool. Should be useful for more than model makers.
Is there any tool more painful to use than an Allen key!
If you have 3d printer you can print nifty hex tool handle thing though :D

Cute! I think the negatives outweigh the positives. Thanks for the look.
I would go for the jim byrnes table saw if i was to buy one for modeling/hobby use, more expensive but "pay once cry once"

I know of 3 brands of quality mini saws, but they all cost $400-500. You can buy decent 8 25"compact jobsite saws for that kind of money.

I bought a D I Y tile cutter and put a saw blade in it instead of the diamond cutting wheel.
And now they must ask to check out lathe or maybe belt sander :)
😁😁😁😁 ...nice dust maker. Cheers.
I think you will find a lot of use for that little gem.
Great little saw for Aeromodellers
Nice bit of kit... I think it would be useful in both big and small workshop...
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nice little tool
Will it work to cut soft metal like alum with a diamond saw?
Any diamond blade will clog cutting aluminium.
Excelente herramienta!!!
Hello friend, can you tell me where you got that mini circular saw table?

Hi!
Cool, i would of loved one as a Child.
Yes indeed! I could have cut my finger off in style instead of using my mom's kitchen knife.
@@Watchyn_Yarwood Lol, if i got caught using Mom's knife, she would cut my finger off.
@@65cj55 I got caught! We will not discuss my punishment, just let me say corporal punishment was a way of life when I was a kid!

Well it is cute I suppose. Noisy little thing though. Wonder how long the bearings will last...
