Dude! You didn't build a fence. You built a table! You BOUGHT a fence and clamped it to the table. You should change the title of this video so people who need a fence won't waste time watching this crap.
Yeah, I feel the same way. I was so psyched as this guy has the same type of bandsaw as I do, and I was interested to find out how he was going to build a fence to integrate the strange L-shaped channel on the front of the table, but he bypassed it all together and just made a lame flat board table. And he didn't even really make a fence for it. Big fail all around.
Tip for future videos. I subscribe to the bottom line up front (BLUF) for presentations. Start video showing the final product and operation demonstration. Then go into how to build it. This will save time for your audience. If the beginning doesn't interest them, they won't waste time watching the step by step build.
Couple of upgrade suggestions - add two self adhesive measuring tapesto each ends of the table to make it easier to set up fence straight. Add higher fence, screwed to straight edge, to cut taller pieces. Route slot for strip to hold adjustable circle guide using shelf pins epoxies in strip for adjustable center.
ya that's fair. What I was planning on doing was taking about 6 inches off the long part of the board, and cutting it into two 3 inch strips. Mounting those two boards together for a 1.5 inch solid straight fence, and attaching it to miter gauge. Routing out a channel in the rear for the guage and boom done. However...I got lazy and went with the straight edge :D
This is great I have a saw that is almost identical to this one. All of the other videos I was looking at were not so compatible with it. Thanks for making this video. 👍
Noticed you got a bandsaw like I do. Do you have any issues with the tilt lock slipping and tilting during use? If so did you find a solution to fix it? Awesome video and thanks!
The walnut didn't bind while you were ripping it because of warping - there was a paper sticker on the side of the piece which was passing through the jig.
I live in Florida and MDF destroys itself, even in the garage, due to humidity. It's pretty much unusable here. :/ I might spring for some high-end plywood.
that's great and funny as hell. just found a 50's Craftsman bandsaw and have NEVER used one til day before yesterday. making open mortis and tenon awning windows and the bandsaw made it oh so simple.
I have the exact same bandsaw and I have been meaning to make a larger outfeed table and fence but I needed your concept to motivate me . Off to the shop ! Thank You for taking the time and doing all the work to share it . The aluminum fence you used can be found at Harbor Freight also in different lengths , they can be disassembled, cut to custom size and reassembled with minimum mechanical skill.
@@tluva1020the original table is like 28 inches. Take the HF bar clamp and get powertech aluminum T track that’s 3x36”. Attach to bar clamp, than you can add higher fence, and stops.
I am going to make a fence identical to this one. MDF 3/4 inch 2 foot by 4 foot can be purchased from Menard's for about 12 bucks and I got the 4 1/2 foot saw guide from Harbor freight for about 13 bucks with coupon. I plan on coating with clear poly spray or paint to keep the board from drawing moisture.
Video reminds me of "Fractured Flickers" , with Hans Conried. I loved watching them as a kid. Check 'em out , anyone who's never seen them. They're hilarious. Great vid xBeau.
Harbor freight actually has the exact same clamp and edge guide for 10 bucks!!! Item 66126. It is the 24 inch. They also have a 48 inch for a few dollars more item 66581. Hope this helps! Have a Super Blessed Week!....Gus
Bidenomics now makes this well over $100. FJB
The table is cool. Build a couple of sleds too, I use my cross-cut sled like crazy.

@@jimthesoundman8641 Have you found a solution to make a band some fence for it I have the same ban saw
Did you not see the thumbnail? Maybe it was changed since you made the comment 5 years ago.
@@jimthesoundman8641Hey do you have issues with the tilt lock not locking and tilting during use?
@@scottbyrd2157 You can tighten it up, I think there is a set screw that you have to adjust.

There is a great store called Imeca, see if they have one near you, they have really good cabinetmakers plywood at really good prices.

I wondered if those clamps could be shortened. Good to know. Thx!
You could have just left the table saw as it was and bought the 24'' harbor freight clamp for $10
That's what I was thinking, but you can benefit from the outfeed portion of the table
That table is bigger than 24in. I have that saw & wanted to use those small HF clamps also

The beast comment got you a sub. Thumbs up
I like the sliding meiter saw best
Where you get the clamp
Remember to allow tool to stop before adjusting
Love this guy
Nice job!
it would be better to show overall structure first, or I'll skip over

Sounds German...

Yep yep, it works good. I also just take a 4x4 and make a fence with that.
Where you get the clamp ??
Hey you should check out the universal fence its awesome, I built one for my band saw and put a circle jig with in the table/fence
I threw that bandsaw in the trash years ago, so now I'm looking for a nice 14" or bigger saw
its too bad that band saw WON't LAST LONG. the fence you made will outlast it.
It was a total piece of garbage, I threw everything away the first time I tried resawing on it
Annoying as all get up.
First I think but this vid was cool
Nice video m8!
