Laney, it is good to see where you went. Congratulations on your new gig. Are you going to still upload your own videos? Or will you be out on the road demoing this tool?
With the exception of really long rips, for which I now have a really long rail, this has replaced my job site saw. It required a change in work flow, ie. crosscut before rip, etc. But my work is safer, faster, and just as accurate. Experience kickback one time on a table saw and you'll love this thing.
Nice idea but the open blade at the end stop next the the clamping hand scared the bejesus out of me. With the table saw I just need to keep an eye out for my feed hand and use a gripper to push the stock and I don't need to look under anything to set my work up because we all think we can multitask but we can't :) you always need to know where that other hand is at all times like the saying goes out of sight out of mind.
For the price Eurekazone charges, get yourself a Festool TS75 and a GRS-16 Guide Rail Square from TSO Products. You'll get a better value, easy to square cuts, and a quality saw.
You have no clue about the value of the eurekazone products. Even Festool and many others are copying the ez designs. Maybe you can't stand the fact that you have a lower quality product and you paid much more. Or...you simply try to do your job and promote others while putting down the best cut table ever.
True, once you add your saw and peripherals, costs begin to climb. Yet, adding the routing system to an MFT and TS75 kit comes in around $2k which about a third more than EZ. Maybe it's worth it. But try calling Festool or any other company with an idea for a custom set up. Then, compare costs. I went with EZ for the cost of entry. Since then I've order additional pieces to suit my work style. For those with generic needs, a plug and play system is fine. For tinkerers and tweakers who prefer or need to something unique, EZ is the way to go. Choose your saw, your router, your table size, rail length, etc. I've seen guys spend thousands on mods and jigs for a table saw and it's still less safe and efficient than this system.
I was unlucky enough to own this. Table is wobbly and requires constant re-squaring. Limited cutting capacity. The table won't cut an entire 4 x 8 sheet. This product is limited to small work, anything larger than a small box the table is moot. Also the table is barely functional because all the clamps are sold separately. I wish I could get a refund but alas.
The clamps are included even if you don't nee clamps with the ez-one. that tells me that you don't have the tool . The table has 50" capacity. if that is a small work..you must be a giant. don't wish...ask for a refund. But first you must have the tool? Thanks for all the lies. dino
I actually do own the table, I purchased it at Rockler prior to Rockler discontinuing the product in their line up. Contrary to popular belief, I was really excited at first, but the more I used it the less I became convinced this was a good product. I used it for a full year and ended up dismantling it. I use the table as an additional surface but it's too high to be an assembly table (I'm 5' 7" and the table is nearly 48" tall). The track has little to no accessories available to it. I ended up switching over to Festool because the ecosystem works and there are plenty of 3rd party companies that produce quality accessories. The EZSmart is far too proprietary and no 3rd party companies produce accessories for it. Lastly, my EZOne did not come with the clamps, it was not in the packaging and neither was it in the instructions. I ended up purchasing the separately. Anyways, apparently you enjoy harassing customers, so I guess I feel justified in my steering people away from this product but I don't need to do anything, I mean, Rockler stopped stocking the EZOne system.
Brian, Looks like you received 1/2 of the table? We include 4 -6way stops, 2 clamps, a smart base and more. Best thing is ( was) to call the office? Thanks,
Brian, The clamps, stops and base are included. Even the squaring rod. The table is very large and able to rip and cross cut up to 50" We have better ways to rip panels. try the UEG. I don't think you have the table thanks
Laney this is a very well thought out woodworking center. I could see general contractors using this for trim work & molding. Are you the owner or sales rep. ?
how do you do long rips which may interfere with the bridge arms on the track? do you have to set it up with clamps and stops and not under the track as you might do otherwise?
Go to 80/20 and spec out your own table. You'll spend twice as much. Go to Festool. Their MFT, saw, router, and peripherals will set you back $2k. Go buy a Sawstop PCS, $2,400 minimum but you still need a way to safely and accurately break down sheet goods, and you still need a router system. Ive been there, done all that. Now, consider the option to completely customize your work space. No one comes close to doing what EZ does for the money.
I dont understand how a track saw could be unsafe compare to table saw? I have a track saw, and it feel safer than passing your hand near a stick out blade. The bad thing with track saw in my experience is, it hard to get square cut you should mark two side also it hard to get a consistent repetitive cut and cutting small piece. That is why festool come with parallel guide and mft, but their system so expensive. But I do think ez track system, not as good as festool, but they sell the bridge kit which seem a good alternative to mft, because it can be use with other track system and mounted on custom table. You can have bigger cut capacity depend on the table you build. Although it is better using parallel guide for rip cut a big sheet and use this system for crosscut.
I think this is a great idea, too bad it did not work out commercially - I hope this company can still license it to another company because I think it should exist.
Hey...don't I know you from somewhere???!! Actually this things got merit. As fast as I was coming up with things that it couldn't do compared to a table saw, you went ahead and did it!!. It looks like a Festool track saw on steroids!! I guess if I had one concern it would be the weight of the system. It looks very light and "spindly". Still, I think I'll go over to the website and take a look. Cheers.
For all those worried about cutting into aluminum it looks as if there is a kerf relief in the crossmembers. I don't know if he cut it there to begin with or if it is manufactured that way. It would have been nice if he addressed that issue in this video since we all seemed to come up with such an obvious question immediately. Perhaps he will post a response in the comments.
It appears that you can move the cross members and slide then to the right or left to accommodate the size of stock you are working with, but that means that he must have cut those grooves into the cross members initially. You would only have to cut them once per adjustment so it's not the end of the world but it would be best to change blades for that.
+Joe Collier Yeah, that really should have been address right up front. I'm still left wondering how to handle arbitrary angles for diagonal cuts, not just 45 degree that is shown on the opposite side. Ideally the aluminum rail would have an open arc-way of 95 to ~ 50 degree. I'm wondering if a large grinding wheel can be attached to the rotary saw, to make the proper arc. As far as replacing the cross members, I''m not so sure, I would imagine them being mostly to support material, and if there is only one weak area that is no big deal. Probably better to use this system with a sacrificial sheet below the track, above the rails.
Name calling like children? No, I'm not connected to the company. I've used nearly every wood working tool and brand offered on this continent over the past 50 years. A safer, affordable method is long over due. Those stuck in their ways and the lemmings that follow them will continue to spend too much, get injured, and dodge off-cuts flying across the shop.
Laney, at 8:40 in you get into cutting panels for casework. I am wondering what mods could be made so you could have say 7' of that plywood panel hanging off the EZ1 but still supported. Would adding some additional SSME components off tot he left side be the best way to handle that without needing to set up roller stands?
John, The sheet I was cutting was a full 8 foot in length. If you are looking to have 7' hanging off the side of the table and be supported you could use a roller stand, or shop made in/out feed table, etc. Adding additional SSME off to the left would provide additional support, but you would need at least 5 foot of overhanging SSME from the table and even then, there may be a requirement for additional support..I personally would recommend either a roller stand or in/out feed rolling table of sorts. Feel free to call the office to discuss this more for a clearer understanding of what im referring to
When you are getting started into woodworking it is important to maintain your perspective so that you do not get overwhelmed with information. DIY woodworking plans can greatly assist you in getting that perspective easily and affordably.
I have a project I do that does a tapered cut with a 9 degree bevel edge I didn't see if you could using the bevel on the saw or not while using this. Is that possible?
Kerry Mullins Yes, it does bevel cuts. However, it does so on a different cut line to avoid ruining zero clearance edge. Normally, bevel cuts are a two-handed operation since the saw can tip. But 9° isn't that severe. the accuracy of your bevel will depend on the saw more than anything else. I work faster and safer with mine and rarely take a table saw to the job site anymore.
Hi, I have a question about the clamping system. At 8:36, it appears that you are applying pressure to the clamp with your right hand and cutting with your left hand. At 8:57, you start with your right hand on the clamp and then remove it and place behind your back at 8:58 while finishing your cut. Does the clamping system require the user to apply pressure with a free hand or leg while making a cut or does the clamping system hold the piece in place without the user applying pressure to the clamp handle? Thanks Michael
Michael, When the clamp is set it holds its position no more need for the user to apply pressure. If the user desires to hold on to the handle or apply more pressure, during the cut, he/she can do so... either way.
I just got this package a few days ago, and I've had a hard time putting it down. There are lots of full-color pictures, with thorough descriptions of every step in the project. The plans are super easy to read and understand, unlike several others I looked at online. Definitely a valuable addition to my woodworking reference library. I would highly recommend it to anyone who's interested in woodworking *TopFineWoodworking .Com* >>>
On those little thin strips, that almost became a great way to loose some finger tips. Reaching under that saw and rail as quick as done there was scary.
Bogdan Aktamakov Great question. Answer, it doesn't. Sliding compound miter is still best for crown and fast in some other tasks. Where this shines is cross cutting panels and short rips. I rarely drag a table saw total the job site anymore. This is lighter, safer and faster.
Love the set up but my question is where did you get the unique Makita in that color and where did you get the dust collector for a circular saw like the one on the Makita?
The color in the video may be off. The saw is Makita 5007mag. You can use any saw you want. The dust collection is a mod they offer as a service or a kit. But you can use any saw you want, even one you already have, which is really nice.
I'm not connected to the company but I'll take my five decades in the business and gladly accept the jibes over being like you. I have Festool, Makita, Sawstop, and a host of other brands in my shop. These guys are introducing a concept that is simpler, safer, more affordable, and still accurate. What do you have to do offer?
I talked on the phone with the inventor of EZ saw. I invented a "Parallel Guided Power Saw" you can see on you tube. Mine is much more practical than EZ. Do you like my saw?
I noticed it had a makita power plant, does it adapt to any hand held saw ? The cut obtainable by the makita is great for general use but it's no festool
The newer saws from Mafell, Makita, Skil, and DeWalt are sturdier and most are as accurate with comparable dust collection. But the TS75 is the one they all want to beat.
At 6:12 in, we were told that the material will need to be relocated under the cutting bar. Why can't the cutting bar be moved over the material (design flaw)? It's a shame after converting the tool to a workbench you couldn't move the cutting bar farther away (design flaw)? 13:27 in, we were told that the material had been planed (planner) prior to this demo. Why didn't you show how to convert tool into a planner?
It's not a planner but can do some jointing. If I understand your question, the rail is squared to the edge of the table at set up. If the rail and bridge are moved, they will have to be re-squared. It would waste a lot of time.
Hi. The capacity is greater. Build like a tank for lifetime use.Unlimited versatility and the list goes on and on. it even works with festool tools. ( Universal) thanks dio
The Festool is a slick plug and play proprietary system that is great for generic applications. With their router system and peripherals, it will cost more and you'll be locked in to their tools. With EZ, use any brand saw or router you want. Set it up for your task. Expand or change as you need. A little more tinkering but your adapting the system to your work and not the other way around.
Robert Weinstein I got their Universal Edge Guide, UEG to rip panels. Its the best at what it does for me. I also use a centipede sawhorse. Best setup I've used for on-site builds. Then, use the EZ1 for crosscuts. I'm a one man operation. This is very efficient and it beats the heck out of pushing sheet of 3/4 ply thru the table saw by myself!
the demo shows that you can cut 4ft across on a 4 x 8 sheet, but didn't show that it was possible or even have room to cut the vertical length of 8ft on the table. I guess a person is suppose to buy or already have a track system that can accommodate this table. imo not worth the buy. just buy or make your own track system and table and it'll cost less than this product.
If you only want to break down sheet goods, you only need their Universal Edge Guide (UEG), the best at what it does IMO. However, this table has replaced my job site saw. I had to adapt my work flow but now I can actually do more safer and faster with equal accuracy. The only exception is long rips but that's an issue with any track saw. Try to find a comparable system. Only Festool comes close but for a lot more money. Unlike Festool, you can use any brand of saw or router you like and customize the entire system to your task. I'm a one man operation who does finish carpentry on-site as much as in the shop and EZ is safe, accurate, efficient, and cost effective. With the folding legs, set up is a snap. It may not be fancy but I need a pickup not a luxury sedan.
Where is the sacrificial board to keep from ruining your blades on the aluminum extrusion? Cutting aluminum with a wood cutting blade will ruin it, please add a sacrifice board.
Brian, the cut line is always the same and it comes pre cut from the factory. You can cut the aluminum even deeper with no effect. But we offer a safety stop/indicator to avoid that. ( included) If you can managed to cut beyond return... a small self aligning connector makes the beam even better. thanks
I'm a finish carpenter and furniture maker. I work with this stuff all the time. You can cut aluminum all day long with a regular blade. Be careful of the shavings. They're razor sharp.
how long before you have to replace the aluminum structure. under the blade cut before it collapses since you cutting into the aluminum structure. Does not make sense or safety in my mind. .
The cut line is always the same. The supporting beams are very thick 1.50" and even if you manage to bypass the depth safety indicator you can re-connect the beam with any ez connector. thanks
Scott, The SSRK ( router kit) is easier and better for dadoes. easy to install. exact dado and 1000 more uses without the expense of dado blades. thanks dino
Unlimited configurations and setups. You can trap any shape . From 1/4" up to 50". But again...IF you have to use a solid top, the top converts to a solid one. thanks dino
A different demo would help answer this. But from personal experience, it is easy to use the stops and sliding rails to reconfigure it for any repeating task you have. I work faster and safer with my EZ tools and I'm not locked into a proprietary brand of power tools and rarely take a table saw to the job site anymore.
50" cross and rip cut capacity. If you use 5x5 baltic ( special plywood) we can make a custom table. for longer ( rip) cuts you can use the tracks or the UEG. ( edge guide) thanks
I can easily crosscut up to 49" on my table. For long panel rips, I use btheir Universal Edge Guide, UEG. It's the best at what it does, in my opinion.
Don't think this is the best way to SELL these. Why not spend VIDEO TIME/viewer interest on aspects of the WWCenter that are more frequently used by WWorkers. Showing me how to save a 15 cent scrap of wood...well...just don't make my day. But...what would I know...I just spent 25 years as Director of Advertising for one of the Top 5 companies in the U.S.
I was mightily impressed with how he safely and accurately cut that tiny piece of wood. Only a fool would try it on any other saw. That said, they do need to show more common tasks being done. Generally, marketing could be improved. However, it is a very safe system. It can also be very accurate and efficient. The cost of entry is very competitive, and the options for customization are endless.
@@tracdfar You can easily accomplish this on a table saw with a sled. I'm not knocking this system, but to say only a fool would try this any other way is hyperbole.
@@thatguythatdoesstuff7448 I saw that too and kinda laughed. Tracy has replied to several other posts as well, extolling the virtues of this system. He's either working for the company, wants to work for the company, or is the world's greatest superfan. This looks like a pretty good system but, from the comments, it sounds like it may be more trouble than it's worth, at least for my needs.
Yes, unlike a plunge saw that retracts when you finish the cut. Still, I think the fact that the blade is turned down makes it safer than a table saw but is anything completely fool proof?
How you doing? Have you heard of the Tarkhavo planned woodworking course (should be on google have a look)? Ive heard some pretty decent things about it. My neighbor next door crafted some excellent kitchen cabinets with it.
I came to SEE The Product.. Not the presenter !!!! It is very annoying to HIDE the PRODUCT by the presenter coming to touch the camera... You need to have some modesty to accept that showing the product is MORE IMPORTANT than showing you... whatever a great esteem you consider yourself.
Justin Case Good observation! True, the blade is exposed during the cut and, maybe more importantly, while just sitting on the track. I guess the question is whether it is safer than blade sticking out of the table. For me, I think it is.
Yeah, now imagine you have a real problem with the $1,000+ system you bought. Just think how angry and defensive they'll be when you call to talk them about it. Sounds like fun, huh?
1K. He'll no. Chalk line works just fine. And if I'm cutter something so meticulous , finished plywood. I can clamp a straight edge faster than he can set that thing up. I could see myself using this if it was more sturdy and only in my wood shop. And only if it would cut 4×8 foot sheets. Also if it wasn't more than a few hundred dollars. As far as Festool goes, their rip off artists too
+ishortland I was curious how this compares. I am considering purchasing a track saw system and leaning towards Festool with the MFT workbench. Of course like most the cost is questionable.
The Festool is slick but with EZ you get: lower cost of entry, your choice of router and saws (even the Skil Sawsquatch!), and a fully customizable setup. Try calling Festool and asking for a custom anything.
You guys better not have one negative statement about this system. Or EZ One's little ankle biter Tracey Farthing will go in attack mode. York,york,york,york,York. LMAO. I think he's trying to make himself feel better about buying this system 3 years ago.
That is an amazing piece of equipment!! Very nice!!
Very good video thanks and God bless.

Hi,
I have a question about the clamping system. At 8:36, it appears that you are applying pressure to the clamp with your right hand and cutting with your left hand. At 8:57, you start with your right hand on the clamp and then remove it and place behind your back at 8:58 while finishing your cut. Does the clamping system require the user to apply pressure with a free hand or leg while making a cut or does the clamping system hold the piece in place without the user applying pressure to the clamp handle?
Thanks
Michael
Michael,
When the clamp is set it holds its position no more need for the user to apply pressure. If the user desires to hold on to the handle or apply more pressure, during the cut, he/she can do so... either way.
He was removing the cord from the table.
Best to suspend the cord and hose.

I just got this package a few days ago, and I've had a hard time putting it down. There are lots of full-color pictures, with thorough descriptions of every step in the project. The plans are super easy to read and understand, unlike several others I looked at online. Definitely a valuable addition to my woodworking reference library. I would highly recommend it to anyone who's interested in woodworking *TopFineWoodworking .Com* >>>
On those little thin strips, that almost became a great way to loose some finger tips. Reaching under that saw and rail as quick as done there was scary.
Is the sales department in Turkey?
How to cut the 230 cm-long hardboard
Why is that saw still there ??!!!
Watched through all the videos. Claiming that it replaces miter saw but how do you do crown compound cuts on it?
Bogdan Aktamakov Great question. Answer, it doesn't. Sliding compound miter is still best for crown and fast in some other tasks. Where this shines is cross cutting panels and short rips. I rarely drag a table saw total the job site anymore. This is lighter, safer and faster.
Love the set up but my question is where did you get the unique Makita in that color and where did you get the dust collector for a circular saw like the one on the Makita?
Eurekazone makes the dust ports that fit in all saws.
The color in the video may be off. The saw is Makita 5007mag. You can use any saw you want. The dust collection is a mod they offer as a service or a kit. But you can use any saw you want, even one you already have, which is really nice.
I'm not connected to the company but I'll take my five decades in the business and gladly accept the jibes over being like you. I have Festool, Makita, Sawstop, and a host of other brands in my shop. These guys are introducing a concept that is simpler, safer, more affordable, and still accurate. What do you have to do offer?
How much is this
But is it safe? Just kidding =)
Funky looking Makita saw. At first I thought it was Kobalt.
Laney!
camera color trick
nice
Can it rip 3m sheets
are these available in the uk? if so, how much are they?
I talked on the phone with the inventor of EZ saw. I invented a "Parallel Guided Power Saw" you can see on you tube. Mine is much more practical than EZ. Do you like my saw?
Buenas noches vivo en colombia dónde se puede conseguir esa mesa para la cierra circular
I noticed it had a makita power plant, does it adapt to any hand held saw ? The cut obtainable by the makita is great for general use but it's no festool
today's saws are in pair. Only the blade makes a better cut, but the ez system offers the best antichip protection
The newer saws from Mafell, Makita, Skil, and DeWalt are sturdier and most are as accurate with comparable dust collection. But the TS75 is the one they all want to beat.
At 6:12 in, we were told that the material will need to be relocated under the cutting bar. Why can't the cutting bar be moved over the material (design flaw)?
It's a shame after converting the tool to a workbench you couldn't move the cutting bar farther away (design flaw)?
13:27 in, we were told that the material had been planed (planner) prior to this demo.
Why didn't you show how to convert tool into a planner?
It's not a planner but can do some jointing. If I understand your question, the rail is squared to the edge of the table at set up. If the rail and bridge are moved, they will have to be re-squared. It would waste a lot of time.
I need a machine.
Excellent woodwork tool
How I get in uk
The cost seems to be on par with Festool after one adds the attachments and such. Which is faster and easier to setup?
Hi. The capacity is greater. Build like a tank for lifetime use.Unlimited versatility and the list goes on and on.
it even works with festool tools. ( Universal)
thanks
dio
The Festool is a slick plug and play proprietary system that is great for generic applications. With their router system and peripherals, it will cost more and you'll be locked in to their tools. With EZ, use any brand saw or router you want. Set it up for your task. Expand or change as you need. A little more tinkering but your adapting the system to your work and not the other way around.
4:17 What did he cut that sprayed black bits all over the place? That black (plastic?) looking piece on top at the start area of the saw?
the depth indicator. a safety feature,

+EZ Smart Kinda thought it might be that. Or some mutant strain of lumber.
:O
Is that you Laney?
How would you use this to breakdown and fabricate casework from 4x8 panels?
Robert Weinstein I got their Universal Edge Guide, UEG to rip panels. Its the best at what it does for me. I also use a centipede sawhorse. Best setup I've used for on-site builds. Then, use the EZ1 for crosscuts. I'm a one man operation. This is very efficient and it beats the heck out of pushing sheet of 3/4 ply thru the table saw by myself!
the demo shows that you can cut 4ft across on a 4 x 8 sheet, but didn't show that it was possible or even have room to cut the vertical length of 8ft on the table. I guess a person is suppose to buy or already have a track system that can accommodate this table. imo not worth the buy. just buy or make your own track system and table and it'll cost less than this product.
If you only want to break down sheet goods, you only need their Universal Edge Guide (UEG), the best at what it does IMO. However, this table has replaced my job site saw. I had to adapt my work flow but now I can actually do more safer and faster with equal accuracy. The only exception is long rips but that's an issue with any track saw.
Try to find a comparable system. Only Festool comes close but for a lot more money. Unlike Festool, you can use any brand of saw or router you like and customize the entire system to your task. I'm a one man operation who does finish carpentry on-site as much as in the shop and EZ is safe, accurate, efficient, and cost effective. With the folding legs, set up is a snap. It may not be fancy but I need a pickup not a luxury sedan.
Where is the sacrificial board to keep from ruining your blades on the aluminum extrusion? Cutting aluminum with a wood cutting blade will ruin it, please add a sacrifice board.
Brian, the cut line is always the same
and it comes pre cut from the factory.
You can cut the aluminum even deeper with no effect.
But we offer a safety stop/indicator to avoid that. ( included)
If you can managed to cut beyond return...
a small self aligning connector makes the beam even better.
thanks
Dumbass
Aluminum is softer than the carbide on the blade. Easier on the blade than hickory.
Brian Boatright do you actually know what you are talking about
I'm a finish carpenter and furniture maker. I work with this stuff all the time. You can cut aluminum all day long with a regular blade. Be careful of the shavings. They're razor sharp.
what about a sacrificial panel under the wood you're cutting So simple, instead of cutting out all that aluminum
Why not? Just for peace of mind.
but you really don't need it.
thanks
dino
you don't cut the aluminum.the kerf is cu in the factory.
how long before you have to replace the aluminum structure. under the blade cut before it collapses since you cutting into the aluminum structure. Does not make sense or safety in my mind.
.
The cut line is always the same. The supporting beams are very thick 1.50"
and even if you manage to bypass the depth safety indicator
you can re-connect the beam with any ez connector.
thanks
never.
I'm going on three years and don't foresee ever having to replace a cross member short of an accident.
can you load a dado blade into the saw? if so how thick?
Scott, The SSRK ( router kit) is easier and better for dadoes.
easy to install. exact dado and 1000 more uses without
the expense of dado blades.
thanks

Changing a week make it into a table saw
hi i'm from mexico. i habe question about where i can buy that tool
Rockler.com, Eurekaone.com, Woodcraft.com
Andrew Sarch
what's the advantages of not having a solid table?
Unlimited configurations and setups.
You can trap any shape . From 1/4" up to 50".
But again...IF you have to use a solid top, the top converts to a solid one.
thanks
dino
Where are the samples to all the different configurations?
A different demo would help answer this. But from personal experience, it is easy to use the stops and sliding rails to reconfigure it for any repeating task you have. I work faster and safer with my EZ tools and I'm not locked into a proprietary brand of power tools and rarely take a table saw to the job site anymore.
will it cut 4x8 feet plywood to size
tq
50" cross and rip cut capacity.
If you use 5x5 baltic ( special plywood) we can make a custom table.
for longer ( rip) cuts you can use the tracks or the UEG. ( edge guide)
thanks
I can easily crosscut up to 49" on my table. For long panel rips, I use btheir Universal Edge Guide, UEG. It's the best at what it does, in my opinion.
Can you cut a bevel like a 45?
Hi JB.
Yes. Use the other slot on the base.
move the sliding extrusions to align the cut line.

Cuánto cuesta está maquina
Don't think this is the best way to SELL these.
Why not spend VIDEO TIME/viewer interest on aspects of the WWCenter that are more frequently used by WWorkers.
Showing me how to save a 15 cent scrap of wood...well...just don't make my day.
But...what would I know...I just spent 25 years as Director of Advertising for one of the Top 5 companies in the U.S.
+Romeo Whiskey You Right.
we need more task oriented videos.

I was mightily impressed with how he safely and accurately cut that tiny piece of wood. Only a fool would try it on any other saw. That said, they do need to show more common tasks being done. Generally, marketing could be improved. However, it is a very safe system. It can also be very accurate and efficient. The cost of entry is very competitive, and the options for customization are endless.
@@tracdfar You can easily accomplish this on a table saw with a sled. I'm not knocking this system, but to say only a fool would try this any other way is hyperbole.
@@thatguythatdoesstuff7448
I saw that too and kinda laughed. Tracy has replied to several other posts as well, extolling the virtues of this system. He's either working for the company, wants to work for the company, or is the world's greatest superfan.
This looks like a pretty good system but, from the comments, it sounds like it may be more trouble than it's worth, at least for my needs.
You guys don't know what your talking about . This is the only system you can safely cut toothpicks on. Having virtually zero waste after
Looks like the blade stays exposed.
Yes, unlike a plunge saw that retracts when you finish the cut. Still, I think the fact that the blade is turned down makes it safer than a table saw but is anything completely fool proof?
How you doing? Have you heard of the Tarkhavo planned woodworking course (should be on google have a look)? Ive heard some pretty decent things about it. My neighbor next door crafted some excellent kitchen cabinets with it.
I came to SEE The Product.. Not the presenter !!!! It is very annoying to HIDE the PRODUCT by the presenter coming to touch the camera... You need to have some modesty to accept that showing the product is MORE IMPORTANT than showing you... whatever a great esteem you consider yourself.
No blade guard. You better never forget that. looks sketchy!!!!
Justin Case Good observation! True, the blade is exposed during the cut and, maybe more importantly, while just sitting on the track. I guess the question is whether it is safer than blade sticking out of the table. For me, I think it is.
This time I will do it manually with the help of Woodglut designs.
I am astounded at the terrible way this company handles customer comments and feedback on this video.
Yeah, now imagine you have a real problem with the $1,000+ system you bought. Just think how angry and defensive they'll be when you call to talk them about it. Sounds like fun, huh?
No ablen tanto se hace muy pesado el video
$1k?? They must be trying to make their money back, that went into the design, on their first couple of sells
Not hardly. Try to spec out your own table at 80/20. Also, Festool will set you back nearly $2k for a similar set up.
Festool is also way overpriced
1K. He'll no. Chalk line works just fine. And if I'm cutter something so meticulous , finished plywood. I can clamp a straight edge faster than he can set that thing up. I could see myself using this if it was more sturdy and only in my wood shop. And only if it would cut 4×8 foot sheets. Also if it wasn't more than a few hundred dollars. As far as Festool goes, their rip off artists too
So ... just a expensive circular saw
The Festool system is much better than this for a small workshop and on-site use.
+ishortland I was curious how this compares. I am considering purchasing a track saw system and leaning towards Festool with the MFT workbench. Of course like most the cost is questionable.
We export to German and we sell more ez-one's to EU customers.
The Festool mft is a fine bench but please, take another look.
thanks
dino
Will do thank you.
The Festool is slick but with EZ you get: lower cost of entry, your choice of router and saws (even the Skil Sawsquatch!), and a fully customizable setup. Try calling Festool and asking for a custom anything.
you destroy the plywood
You guys better not have one negative statement about this system. Or EZ One's little ankle biter Tracey Farthing will go in attack mode. York,york,york,york,York. LMAO.
I think he's trying to make himself feel better about buying this system 3 years ago.
CUT OUT THE CRAPPY MUSIC YOU WOULD DO ALOT BETTER .

И еще одна бИда - с русским языком...
Did anyone else cringe when the guy reached under the saw to pull out the small inlay? Eek.
Unsafe!
