Thanks for posting this. I'm planning to make a 'simple' sled, so have been watching several videos. You obviously understand what the word 'simple' means!
@@paulcarmody7529 And many also make their "simple" video 30 or 40 minutes long. There are many things that can be done to make a simple sled more useful, and less simple, but this guy nailed simple and, thankfully, short on the video.
@dalepres1 exactly. I've been watching lots of sled making videos for 2 mo, most of those "simple" sleds require tracks, stops, planers, sanding belts, routers and many more tools, and it becomes a huge project. I'm not a carpenter, I'm not going to use it to build a house, I just need to crosscut couple pieces of wood.
Having checked out numerous RUclips videos for ‘ simple cross cut table saw sled’ most if not all were so totally over complicated, over engineered just for a knocked together cutting jig. It is not cabinet making just simple joinery and yours is absolutely the best. No unnecessary chat, no stupid back to front caps, no background music ( why the need ?) . Excellent video and a lesson to the other would be makers out there
Gracias hermano. At last a workshop that looks like mine! Messy, odd containers, loose tools. Many RUclips videos look as sterile as a hospital! You make us feel so tranquil
Επειδή το δισκοπρίονο που αγόρασα είναι ένα τιποτένιο έινχελ, το έλκηθρο ήταν βασικά το τρίτο αξεσουάρ που έφτιαξα. Το πρώτο ήταν ένα πρόσθετο τραπέζι και το δεύτερο ένας παράλληλος οδηγός. Ευχαριστούμε για τα πολύ ωραία βίντεο!!!
Όντως καλό είναι για αρχή! Δύναμη έχει αρκετή. Το τραπέζι του, η στήριξη του κινητήρα και ολα τα περιφερειακά του όμως σε κάνουν να λες" γιατί, τι έκανα;" ;)
Thank you. Yes indeed it is. Much more accurate and much quieter as well! I have ordered a zero clearance insert when I got it. So for now I am covered!
I've been looking for long time to make a simple sled, you've made it so simple, nice piece. Αν μου πεις ότι είσαι κι Έλληνας θα χαρώ πάρα πολύ. Your accent is sooooo Greek. 🤗 And yes, this is the first thing we should make when purchasing a table saw. My table saw manual says it too, and my the woodworking book 📖 .
This is great. I was wondering how you'd make sure it was square... As a semi newbie, I hadn't thought of cutting halfway through it and squaring up from the cut ;)
How to make a simple cross cut sled for Dummies 😀 Great job! I am planning to build one soon and saw many videos about building one! Many get kind of complicated, however, with your video, I can start the building sooner, and if I need more features, I can implement them on your model. Many thanks! Muchas gracias!
Nice and simple build. I build one myself but it is not finished yet. I already use it and it is a great help to work very accurate. When it is finished i will also make a video of it! It was fun watching you make it.
If you put Turtle Wax, or any other type of car wax on the table of the saw and on the bottom of your jig it will glide even better. I do that anyway to keep rust at bay. Great video.
Nice guid! Building myself one atm! One question, is there some disadvantages by making the rails a little bit higher? so the sled is just abow the table saw for less friction? Sawdust get trapped under there maybe?
Excelente…, gostei de algumas dicas, tenho um que fiz já a algum tempo e terei que refazer o talvez fazer outro, deu um pequeno problema…, vamos ver !❤️ Abraço aqui do Brasil 🇧🇷
Do I need to make a cross cut sled if I just have a small 8 1/4 in portable table saw? I only use it in my garage but all the cross cut sleds I have seen on RUclips have been for very large shop table saws?
DONT glue the back board support. Screw on only, allows for adjustment. Also cut a a small chamfer on the bottom of the rear board to allow for any dusk
I get that not everyone is concerned about kickback and losing fingers because they feel they have the skill to never make a mistake, but even with that confidence, why not use a riving knife? As far as I know, it'll never interfere with a cut and can only help prevent kickback.

My thoughts exactly. They say simple then they proceed to use 30k worth of tools. 🤣

This video is much better than those on the famous woodworking channels. Just keep it simple !!!
Thank you
This is the first actually simple and accurate build for a crosscut sled I've seen, thank you!
The way you purnacate the word "saw" makes it sounds like such an elegant tool! Classy!
First thing you should make, after a push handle! 100% agreed. Great video!

Thank you for a simple sled. Most are too complicated. Well done.
Thank you for watching

lol, nice to hear that! :)
I made a close copy of this over the weekend and look forward to using it this evening
the first SIMPLE cross cut sled instructional video in YT. Thanks and subscribed!
I like that you didn't use any fancy tools to make this. I watched another video and the guy used a bandsaw and thickness planer.
That’s crazy...lol
I saw another guy pulling some math formula to make it square ...
Thanks for taking the time to share. Making one today.
First time I've seen your videos, Dimitri. Very heartening to see a Greek woodworker take such a prominent position on RUclips.
Ευχαριστώ αδερφέ να σαι καλά
@@ScrapwoodCity what does that mean?
Very easily understood instruction manual on how to make a table saw sled. Thank you sir.
Thank you
I agree it is the first thing you should make when you get a table saw and that's what I'm going to do
Awesome. Simple, straightforward and really easy to follow. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much for sharing this tutorial with everyone, I really learned a lot and I think it's a great addition to anyone's table saw.😄😇
Indeed it is. Thank you.
I'm beginner and I've watched a lot of films about easy sledge for my table saw but your's the easiest. Thanks!
Clear and simple insturctions. I will make one tomorrow
Thank you
Nice and simple. Thanks for uploading
Literally just made one as I was watching.. Thanks very much
THANK YOU! Just what I was looking for !
Very simple and useful jig. Compliments!
Great design - thank you!
Thank you, made a very similar one. Salute from Spain
Thank you. Greetings from Greece
Easy, simple, good. Thank you very much
Thank you
I like it. Thanks for sharing. I’m going to make one for myself. Thanks
Nice simple design, easy to build - and includes safety and useability features that many of the others don't have . Thanks for posting !
The best part is the sound effect of the nail gun
Absolutely love this
Thank you
good instructions, easy to follow,really like this sled
Thank you
Best simple plan I have seen. Thanks
Off to build it!
Took just over 2 hours, works perfectly. Total cost so far: Nil. Used scrap/free wood
Excellent video and instructions!
Thank you

Ευχαριστώ πολύ φίλε μου. Κι εγώ ένα τιποτένιο Einhell είχα πριν. Μην ανησυχείς μια χαρά είναι κι αυτό για αρχή.

Very good example to lean from 👍
Hi. YES I AGREE WITH THE OTHER CHAP YOU MADE IT SIMPLE AND IT LOOKS REAL GOOD THANKS FOR THAT...... DAVID..N.S.W. AUSTRALIA..
Thank you. Greetings from Greece
Happy to see that you were able to replace the old tablesaw. Great project with it!
Thanks. Yes fortunately
Excellent video! To-the-point, simply explained with every step shown nicely, and only essentials.
Thank you
Great video! So simple and functional… 👏🌹🇦🇺✌️
Thank you
Awesome tutorial. Gonna make that now.
Brilliant. Thank you for making the video. I’ve just made mine and it works fantastically well 👏👏👏
Brilliant and simple to follow. I will be making one this week. Thank you.
Thank you my friend
@@ScrapwoodCity I made one this week following your video. So simple. Thank you.
The best video for newbies like me.
Nice! That's a much better table saw than your previous one. Next thing to make is a zero clearance insert and you are all set.
Thank you. Yes indeed it is. Much more accurate and much quieter as well! I have ordered a zero clearance insert when I got it. So for now I am covered!
This is probably one of the most used and beneficial jigs for any table saw. 👍
Good work, mate. 👌
Thank you
Super easy and super useful - a great video! Thanks
Great to hear!
I am working on my first sled myself. Thanks for the great video!
Awesome to hear that!
You’re right! This should’ve been the first thing I should’ve made! Part of me wonders why these aren’t mass produced for table saws🤷🏻♂️
Perhaps because they are pretty simple to make
Thank you, God bless you
Nice work! Thank you
Beautifully done my man 👍
Thank you
Nice full respect ✊ thank you
Thank you
Very good auxiliary tool !
thank you
Thanks for the video man! Very helpful and no bullshit....perfecto!
Thank you
Thanks for sharing.. Great job....
Awesome! I was looking for one of these now i get to make one!

@@ScrapwoodCity just bought the plywood, I'll make it this week.
Παρακαλω 🤗
I loved the simplicity of it, The one I made came out awesome as per your instructions, looking forward to seeing other projects, thank you very much
Glad you liked it!

Okay, just bought a De Walt DW7485 - I guess I really need to get on and build your simple sled!
Thank you for the instruction...i build some in next days!
Very simple 👌
Thanks for this man! This can help me on the next projects. Keep up the great Woodwork!!
nice to hear that
Lovely to see so many videos with Greek titles in your channel. Where is scrap-wood-city?
Thank you. I am Greek luving in Athens.
@@ScrapwoodCity I am Greek too, living near London. I wish you tons of luck with your channel.
Terima kasih atas tutornya. Saya baru mau memulai 7saha furniture
Nice and simple build. I build one myself but it is not finished yet. I already use it and it is a great help to work very accurate. When it is finished i will also make a video of it! It was fun watching you make it.
Awesome, can't wait to watch it!
@@ScrapwoodCity normaly it is something for in a few weeks, first i have to finisch some other projects. I have to much ideas hahahah LOL
Cool!!! Now I have a video to come back to when I get a table saw one day!!! Awesome video, keep up the great work!!! :D
Thank you
Lovely neat work and very informative vid. Thanks Dimitris!
Thank you Mark
Hm I see a new table saw and I'm happy. The jig though is also cool 😀
Thank you. Yes new saw new jig
Great! Thanks
Nice...thanks.
If you put Turtle Wax, or any other type of car wax on the table of the saw and on the bottom of your jig it will glide even better. I do that anyway to keep rust at bay. Great video.
Thank you, I will try it out
Nice guid! Building myself one atm! One question, is there some disadvantages by making the rails a little bit higher? so the sled is just abow the table saw for less friction? Sawdust get trapped under there maybe?
Maybe. And also you lose some height from the cutting capacity of the blade
Απαραίτητο για το παγκοπρίονο. Ωραία κατασκευή.
Ευχαριστώ Βασίλη!
New sub. Thanks 🙏
Perfect!
Thank you

Esencial este acesorio para la sierra se adelanta mucho con el. Saludos.
thank you
Very smart👍👍👍
yes , indeed nice and must project but first hoping for table saw 😧 .
Indeed
cool and simple, but why no pivot point instead of full glue/screws?
Do I need to make a cross cut sled if I just have a small 8 1/4 in portable table saw? I only use it in my garage but all the cross cut sleds I have seen on RUclips have been for very large shop table saws?
Ωραία παρουσίαση. Όπως πρέπει να είναι. Απλή και πλήρης.
Ευχαριστώ
Looks good! I could possibly use such a device :)
Thank you
Does it detract from sled at all if you leave rails a little longer in front?
Νομίζω ότι είναι αυτός ο οδηγός είναι πάρα πολύ χρήσιμος . Ελπίζω και σε κριτική για το παγκοπρίονο !!!!!
Ευχαριστώ Κατερίνα. Δεν νομίζω να κάνω κριτική στο πριόνι. Πάντως μέχρι στιγμής μου αρέσει πολύ!
My table saw is a ryobi and I’m guessing it’s a small one cause I only have one track. How can I make a cross cut sled
would you please share the dimensions if you wont mind...thank you...its so simple... i want to make the same
Nice one. At 1:13 I bring over the fence
Thank you
Can you use vassaline to lubricate it instead of bees wax
DONT glue the back board support. Screw on only, allows for adjustment. Also cut a a small chamfer on the bottom of the rear board to allow for any dusk
What table saw did you get?
The craft
Shouldn't the front be square to the base rather than the back since it is used to secure the workpiece?
The front doesn’t support the workpiece at all. It only supports the base from moving around.
You should verify squareness using the 5 cut method.
What is the saw table, please? (Brand and model)
I didnt know Zizek was into woodworking
👍👍👍
What saw bank do you have ?
I get that not everyone is concerned about kickback and losing fingers because they feel they have the skill to never make a mistake, but even with that confidence, why not use a riving knife? As far as I know, it'll never interfere with a cut and can only help prevent kickback.
