simple yet so elegant an idea. Great video show-how! I so much like how the panels come together as a table stand quickly and tool-le ssly. Thank you for sharing.
Nice job rigging the skill saw to use as table saw. That said, working height is not optimum or safe and the support structure seems a bit rickety though I give props for the joinery. Love the idea.
Nice, but I would suggest you make supports for the box a little better, it looks a bit shaky. I would also suggest you place a power cut off switch closer so you don't have to get up everytime you want to shut off the saw. One small slip or trip getting up can cause some serious damage to you.
Thats probably the most simple idea i've seen for a diy table saw. Simple means less to go wrong and ease of use, and it obviously suits your needs. As long as its built well its safe, buying a table saw does'nt mean its much safer. Yes theres probably a thousand "what ifs" going through veiwers minds, but human error is the cause of most injuries. Accidents dont just happen they're caused by bad habits and any health and safety rep will tell you that. Besides its a simple fact (although not often known or believed fact, but it is a proven fact), that 95% of the things we adults worry about never actually happens or comes true. Great build man i feel inspired.
Great idea on table saw build very simple, just save those fingers brother! I've seen a clip where someone used the eraser tips on 2 pencils for guides when he got to small wood cuts. Better the pencils ripping through than your fingers! thanks for the upload.
I have watched a lot of videos about making a homemade table saw. Your video is exactly what I am looking for on how to mount the saw. The other videos screw the saw to the table. I did not want to do that. I figured that makes the saw to permanent. What if you need the saw as a circular saw? Screwing and unscrewing the saw would eventually make the mounting holes useless. GREAT mounting idea! THANKS.
LOU Thank you LOU, I'd watched a lot of how to mount a circular saw as well. As amateurs like you and me, a simply, quick, and save storage space mounting is more important than safety. Frankly, I did some stupid mountings before and finally designed this quick and simply mounting by experience. Not much skill and tool needed, cost is low, but it works! Thanks again LOU!
OI! Você é um gênio. Que ideia maravilhosa. Vou fazer uma dessas para minha serra circular.Amei sua ideia eu não consigo cortar a madeira na medida.Sempre quando preciso cortar sai tudo torto. Parabéns.
fantastic idea, I think I will make one that fits onto a big plastic box (like the recycling ones) Then I can store the saw and bits in it for easy transport
Can you keep filming, Id love to see the results when your hand is pulled into the saw, as at the end of this demo. please please please, fit a guard and a safety cutout!
As I said, all cutting machines are dangerous! More attention should be paid and keep your hands far away from the cutting blade, or use a puller when cutting a narrow wood as I showed at the last of video. IMHO, router/trimmer, grinder more dangerous to table saw. LOL
***** Im sure lots of people have said the same, That blade will snatch your work and pull you down and into the machine. It wont be pleasant! You probably wont be able to see the full videos on youtube as they are too gorey - search around though and you will see the aftermath of people using unguarded table saws. Horrible life changing injuries.
***** Oh, please. Review the video more carefully before commenting. Since, in this case, the saw blade was pushing the material away from the saw (towards him), the chance of his hand being “pulled into the saw” is extremely remote. Most accidents with table saws involve a hand slipping off the material being pushed into the blade and similar. To avoid that, he was properly using a “push stick,” not his hands directly, to push the material.
I used jig saw, circular saw and hand saw. I was not sure if I needed a table saw. I had a small accident with the circular saw. I got a shallow scratch on my leg but my new work pants got really injured. After watching some videos like this one I decide and bought the table saw I could afford. Be careful man, please.
This has to be a troll video. Did you see how close his finger got to the blade when he slipped at the end? Re-upload this video with the title "Almost cut my finger off!" and put a slow motion clip of that ending bit.
Actually quite scary what happened there at the very end of the video. This should be a training video on kickback and what NOT to do when it comes to a table saw. Thanks for sharing the video and almost sacrificing your fingers to make an instructional kickback video.
Fingers do not grow back. Do some research into Circular saw kickback before attempting this! Someone at my work lost the top of their finger today incidentally (not with a saw, with a knife) and is currently at the hospital after bleeding everywhere. H&S is boring but necessary if you value your limbs. There are lots of scare stories out there from people who thought it will never happen to them.
No one is "afraid of circular saw" my grammatically challenged friend. Just pointing out the dangers that you might otherwise be unaware of. People who think they know it all are the ones you see in casualty wards. There's a difference between bravery and stupidity that you obviously will one day learn the hard way.
+SolarReturn The skid plate of the saw is fixed to the bottom of the table when he puts the wingnuts on. The height is adjusted on the saw. In this case, the black lever that's visible at twelve o'clock when the saw is on top is the height adjustment. You can't see it in the video but he releases that lever and moves the saw toward the table top to raise the blade height before locking the lever and dropping the top back down. And he had the blade too high as evidenced by the kickback at the end.
all you guys asking for plans should probably give away all your tools that you might already posses. you are sure to fuck yourself up if trying to operate things with spinning blades if you lack the mental capacity to figure out how to build this just by looking at it
CORY HAYNES . Think Corey. Anyone who duplicates this setup should not play with anything sharper than a marble, and deserves the accident awaiting them.
All tools are dangerous for green hand DIYer, electric drills are dangerous as well. 99% of table saw around the world without protection fence if you do a search from RUclips. Mine is just an easily demountable table saw and it works perfectly in my DIY life, the emergency power off switch is on the extension power socket cord. LOL
Completely unsafe concoction from unstable box to saw not being securely mounted. Liability video. Should be titled, How to cut off your fingers or worse.
Nice idea but needs some refining. Dogs to prevent kickback, blade guard so the only thing getting cut is the wood, and a far better on/off system. Leaving that exposed spinning blade that close to the floor is terrifying - tripping, kids, pets... My opinion is it is more dangerous than convenient in its current state. Keep working on it, great apartment dwellers device when made safer.
A little uneasy mounting, but it works! Maybe a wider plate on the back of the fence, set perpendicular on the first time, could give an automatic parallelism fence-blade.

This is pretty tight, might have to make this and scale it up for myself! Thanks for the idea

Yikes got a little scary at the end there, lol!
People, this is a simple build. If you cannot figure this one out yourself, I don't think you should be using any power tools.
ikickss haha exactly...self explanatory pretty much
I can "figure" that it is a good way to lose some fingers or other body parts, so anyone that wants to build this should get a mattel table saw.
OI! Você é um gênio. Que ideia maravilhosa. Vou fazer uma dessas para minha serra circular.Amei sua ideia eu não consigo cortar a madeira na medida.Sempre quando preciso cortar sai tudo torto. Parabéns.
First thing I thought was the kickback from this construction, then it happens at the end.
fantastic idea, I think I will make one that fits onto a big plastic box (like the recycling ones) Then I can store the saw and bits in it for easy transport
hehe nice one... the last part of the wood flying was a tricky moment!
Can you keep filming, Id love to see the results when your hand is pulled into the saw, as at the end of this demo. please please please, fit a guard and a safety cutout!
My best mate cut his thumb off with a circular saw. #justsaying

Nice simple & very efficient
03:40 kickback ughh, watch your hand! playwood is flat, just push the pushstick, your left hand cause the kickback!
very interesting design!
Wow kickback at the end
I nearly have a heart attack at the end. Be careful . Lam Sir
your camera angle make it scary Barry, safety first. btw good job.

wow. great idea. thanks
Hi Sir, I am interested in making a similar one for my cisrcular saw. Would be great if you can share the plans for this.
+Daniel Mani
I wrote a building record in Chinese.
www.dchome.net/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1229462&extra=page%3D2
Neat. I plan to make one, but a but bigger. Be careful bro.
damn that was close lol
Great
3:40 Kickback. Wear safety glasses folks
Fingers do not grow back. Do some research into Circular saw kickback before attempting this! Someone at my work lost the top of their finger today incidentally (not with a saw, with a knife) and is currently at the hospital after bleeding everywhere.
H&S is boring but necessary if you value your limbs. There are lots of scare stories out there from people who thought it will never happen to them.
If you afraid of circular saw, please keep away from electric drill, driving, gas cooker, aeroplane travelling.....etc. LOL

Hi Sir, I am interested in making a similar one for my circular saw. Would be great if you can share the plans for this.?
I Got scared of last part almost had his fingers cut off. Wew
super awesome
Geez man, you are going to loose some fingers.....keep that left hand out of there!
this would be great for special repeated cuts. I'll work on making a fence. can't make out how it's made.
talk i like this idea
Hello, Hey what was the circular saw you used, it seems to make very little noise, thats good.
+Chava Flores From the color of the housing, it's probably a Hitachi.
That last cut and the saw throwing the piece at you… that is the only reason this is not a god idea
You need to use a pusher on every cut.
show me a close up of the fence you have there.
How is he turning it on? The trigger is underneath, right?
good
Fit a guard. Safety first!
good...
wood sander fit,s to OLD B&D Drill.? anything on it.?
+Eric Heppleston
I never buy B&D tool for it's bad quality, it's only a brand of toy. LOL
Can you adjust the blade height? If not, does anyone have any ideas on how to adjust blade height?

And he had the blade too high as evidenced by the kickback at the end.
+vliam22 Thanks for the info my friend, I appreciate it! Take care!
+SolarReturn ya spend 250 on a table saw.
Good answer! :)
It looks unsave how the peace flew your way
出售嗎先生？很棒啊。
自己動手造
etwas wackelig das Ganze, aber die Idee ist nicht schlecht!
No way I will ever do something like that.
How about just using a square on your fence and did you get a bloody lip?
You seem a bit half-arsed and clumsy given that you’re demonstrating with a circular saw?
I think he lost his thumb right before the video ended. RIP!!!
That seems a very unsafe construction my friend..
Maniac.
Safety first my boy! Your pushsticks is too short, make it longer about 10feet, hahaha
冇急停制，冇護罩幾危險。
Sketchy as hell.
Hati2 mas bos
When you have time to die. You should definitely build this circular saw
all you guys asking for plans should probably give away all your tools that you might already posses. you are sure to fuck yourself up if trying to operate things with spinning blades if you lack the mental capacity to figure out how to build this just by looking at it
CORY HAYNES . Think Corey. Anyone who duplicates this setup should not play with anything sharper than a marble, and deserves the accident awaiting them.
omfg pls no fingas are valuable
at the end close call just get saw stop
Please think of saftey and wear some socks.
A very low low budget built... must remember, safety first...
Anyone who thinks this a good idea should stay away from power tools ! “Just because you can doesn’t mean you should”..
Made in China man. I like American way safety first and watch out your fingers.
3:39 kick back lucky you
3:40 ؟؟؟
it is very dangerous! not have stop,sciark! eschiusmi,bat i italian,et no speak inglisc! bat i think,it is veri ouful idea

9 fingers man diy
Fucking hell this is dangerous.
Turd world idea's
i made a way better drill powered table saw
What's the bloody point of that.

Good job. But I like my fingers. No thanks.
+Tec 9 good job. But I like my fingers, my face and my eyes also.
Nice kickback
Hey Dude, you almost cutting your finger :D
Be careful :)
The unstable box construction was the first sign of a very hazardous build.
Won't take much to clean up a nifty simple idea.
Keren

Dapat di tiru
do some research on table saw safety before operating mate
thanks for the vid i will never do this. you saved my fingers!
A little uneasy mounting, but it works!
Maybe a wider plate on the back of the fence, set perpendicular on the first time, could give an automatic parallelism fence-blade.
Size wood?
Mini?😒🤔
Nice method of attachment to the table; no drilling holes in the saw base, no square cutout in the table.
Я бы предложил вам разлиновать стол, на сантиметровые линии, что бы не мерить каждый раз.
Hopefully nobody copies your idea for making a homemade table saw...
Looks sketchy AF
Small footprint, neat, clean. Good Job....thumbs up.
Save some money but later spend it on the medical bill.
Better invest in safety than regret later.
Kickback wkwk
Thanks for showing us how to assemble the thing.
I really like it. Thank you brother
