Хобби
I have this saw, bought about a year ago. Changes I've made to it:
1. Added a soft-start module (rewiring required).
2. Replaced the crappy miter gauge with one from Kregg.
3. Replaced the 24 tooth blade with a decent one
4. Bought a matching zero-clearance throat plate
5. Folded the legs down - they actually have tiny "feet" when folded to set on a table.
6. Built an outfeed table which the saw sits in (Thanks to 3x3 Custom on RUclips for this idea)
7. Bought a dado set from Freud.
8. Bought a push block (can't remember the brand) to save my fingers.
The saw itself is fine, but underpowered for very large cuts.
However the rack and pinion fence is great and adjustments for blade alignment is easy to do.
This will be fine until I move up to a used cabinet saw.
Good afternoon, could you tell me what brand of soft start device you bought and if it worked for you, I would be interested in putting it on my saw, but I have been afraid of losing it.
I would like to install a soft start module to my Skil table saw too, could you tell me where you bought the module and how it went with that adaptation, do you think it is worth it?
Great video and love how you showed us to calibrate the saw. Most others wouldn't take the time. That why your the MAN.
Setup seems fairy easy
I just picked this up as my first table saw during a whole home renovation. I chose this after wonderful experiences with their cordless driver and oscillating multi-tool. They're affordable, come with chargers and batteries that aren't trash, and are very powerful. I've been very impressed with what Skil has to offer and this saw has exceeded my expectations at this price point. Obviously, I don't have much to compare it to, but I can say its been a workhorse and made me a repeat customer of Skil products.
I'm a beginner DIY guy, picked up on one of these on sale for just under $200 and have not been disappointed. Cuts great right out of the box and for what I've been doing it's been awesome. Great review - keep 'em coming!
You did this very well, all the important points covered and explained. As a cabinetmaker for 40+ years, I have seen and used most types of saws from massive 12" production units to drag to the jobsite and hope you get lucky. This one would be welcome anywhere good work is being done. It would be really helpful if you did a demo of the slightly less used but very necessary operations such as angled cuts, dado setups and mitre guage and very thin piece. Also, both for ease and safety, show how to build a simple, easily attached and removed outfeed support platform. Thanks for your efforts to bring pro level results to the "prosumer".
Thanks Lewis, we appreciate your feedback!
this guy needs to demo everything on the planet , fast,informative and says whats on his mind.THANKS!
Agreed! This guy is phenomenal! I’m buying one of these saws! Amazon here I come!
Xxxxx
Thus guy talks way to much check project farm. He has no Sponsors and does honest non biased reviews. Much better than Vince for reviews sorry Vince
I got him to review my girlfriend before proposing. He saved me a lot of money and time!
Only thing I would love to see you put on the dado stack to see how a beginner DIYer could do it.
I was looking for a review on this saw and couldn't find one. Thank you Vince! The only reason I haven't updated my old portable table saw is because it's dead quiet, it has an induction motor instead of a noisy universal motor which all the new contractor saws use. Makes a huge difference working inside or near neighbors.
I’m a DIYer and based on advice from Vince I went with the Skil cordless tool line instead of Hercules. Best advice ever. Thanks Vince! I may get this table saw as well, hopefully on a Black Friday deal. I hope Skil gives you a little something for the effort.
I’m revisiting this video for the third time.. peaked my interest months ago. Revisited when I started my hunt for an affordable table saw for DIY stuff…. Now I’m watching again since this saw was just delivered today! I’m excited to try it! Thanks again Vince!
I've got this table saw. And it's a damn good saw. It struggles past the 1 inch thick stuff. I installed a DeWalt construction 60 tooth blade on mine. It really woke up the saw. Also on the wide rips if you have the fence to the left, flip the guard piece down and it supports the piece you are cutting. I had the DeWalt jobsite saw and I like this one better.
I remember you guys went to a convention and tried the new skill tools and it was impressive from what they were before! Great job guys!
Just took delivery of this thing and I'm MOST happy to find this video. The instruction booklet isn't great for somebody who's always used a radial arm saw and is a tablesaw rookie, but this video cleared up several questions I had. Thanks!
New home owner. Getting into DIY. You’re my go to guy for reviews and recommendations. Keep up the good work with the channel! Thanks
Check out the Project Farm channel too.
Watched a couple of videos on this saw, I am not a professional wood worker but am a diy person who has built many items, this saw impressed me enough to purchase this saw. Wanted the rack and pinion fence, wanted a stand, wanted simple adjustments, I’m 77 years young so wanted something that would not be to heavy. Prior to this purchase I would have to return home to rip long cuts now I can use this saw. Just a note I have a Dewalt miter saw and stand that I love. Great video
I love how in depth he goes into every tool.
I just bought the Ridgid R4514 online at Direct Tools Factory Outlet for about $349 (listed as “blemished). If I had known about this Skilsaw model at this price point beforehand, I might have considered buying this as it is very compact looking, and don’t have a big work area. Thanks for showing this as an option.
Just bought it. Arrives tomorrow. Super excited to build this bed I’m going to be working on. The red and Skil sold me.
Thank you for walking us through setting up the Guard system. The Manual did say it, but it was a lot easier to see how you did it.
Measure Twice
Cut onece.
Now when i teach my young carpenter apprentice to check the blade curf ill act like ive been a seasoned wood butcher for years . Thanks Vinny from the Motor City!!!
Mine just arrived today, pumped to check it out. My first table saw and I was confident making the purchase thanks to you! I really appreciate your content.
Best Demo video I've seen, well done. No BS, just the facts and practical use of a product. When I was shopping for tool boxes, I saw your videos. Now shopping for a table saw, I came across your channel again. Like before, Best, most realistic take on a product. Thank you!
I remember watching a guy start using a Ridgid table saw right after unboxing, then complained that it didn't make accurate cuts! Great explanation on how to fine tune the saw before putting it through it's paces.
As a remodeling contractor I have a ton of pro grade tools. I settled on Dewalt table saws. It's hard to beat Dewalts rack and pinion fence setup. It's very accurate. The only Skil tool to make the "cut" through the years is a Skilsaw Mag 77. My van was broken into and I had several thousand dollars in tools stolen along with my beloved Dewalt table saw. I'm happy to see that now Skilsaw has a worm drive table saw with the rack and pinion fence, although not this model. It might be the perfect replacement.
Great video. I'm retiring soon, and building up a small woodworking shop in my large barn. I had just bought this Skil table saw, and got it set up. I've not used a table saw since high school shop class back in the late 1970s, so I've been a little apprehensive getting back into these machines. Your video gives me a lot of confidence that for the small projects I have in mind that I made a good choice in this saw. I really like your down-to-earth demo style and presentation - thanks for posting this.
The VCG showing us some impressive sleepers!! Thank Vinny Mac!! Shout out the KOTC!!
Dang man, VCG Construction was so lucky to get sponsored by VCG Construction. So lucky.
@vcg Vince.....Just unboxed and set mine up. Thank you for the informative review. 90 out of the box. Made a couple test cuts, and very impressed with the power, accuracy of cut (did some rip 45's through 2" for a beefy French cleat, had a razors edge on the piece of wood) So far very happy, besides scratches on the table (amazon). But so far as owning it for about an hour I am very happy with your recommendation. Thanks VCG
I love the rack and pinion fence though the plastic gears may not hold up over time and a lot of use. For a DIYer who is looking for accuracy and may only do a few projects a year, I think there is a lot of value in this saw, at the price point. Particularly with the integral stand, which adds $40 - $50 dollars in value vs. a simple aftermarket stand. Take that savings and reinvest it in a higher quality blade, and this could be a really nice saw.
I like the collapsable legs on that. I have the rigid compact table saw with the wheel base but that Skil would be nice to pickup and go
Thank you for the great demo. I just bought one, and don't have any experience with this kind of tool. So, hopefully you have saved me a trip to the Emergency Room! Yes, I read all the safety instructions, but it helps to visualize, especially when you are new at it!
The integrated stand is a nice welcome at that price! If it's as reliable as the dewalt saw, skil has a winner!
Awesome video. Thank you! Just assembled my saw. Picked up a few things from you for the assembly. I would call myself a self-taught very accomplished DIYer. Not sure if I'll start with the windows, which need new jambs and sills or my wife's new potting shed. Regardless, I'm looking forward to making my first cuts tomorrow. I agree with the comment below. You should demo every tool on earth!
I have used my Skil tools for years I have no complaints at all. Heck even have a few 35 year old Black & Decker tools still going strong.
Just got this saw for Christmas as a replacement for my 30-year-old middle shelf DIY portable saw. The breakdown and other info were very helpful and I'm really looking forward to putting it to use.
Glad the video helped!
Well done review. I am and older guy on a fixed income and just getting my first table saw for diy projects. This video confirmed what I thought based on my online research. I will be going to my local Lowe's in the morning.
This is the video I've been waiting for. I've been researching and watching table saw videos for months now trying to figure out what to get and was hoping that you'd drop a video with your opinion. Thanks!
Get the Metabo if it's on sale. Same price, much better saw
I like the fact that it has two latches on both sides of the fence ... does the metabo
I would go for the DeWalt dwe7485. Way better saw and deal. The worm drive version of the Skil saw is way
better. It has a nicer stand with really large tires, but at that price range, definitely go for the Dewalt dwe7491rs.
I agree, my next and first saw!
@@scsc9311 The Dewalt is $250 more than the Skil. In my book that's not the same price range.
Thank you vcg construction that be a nice saw for a homeowner and thank you for showing everyone how to adjust and setup the new saw I never knew how to do it correctly
Orderd my saw on Tuesday and got it today (2 days) just got a chance to put it together but not use it yet, seams to be quality. I was skeptical about buying a new product without many reviews but trusted the skil brand and was happy with with the price. Thanks for the video👍🏻
Hi Anthony... Let us know what you think of it when you’ve had a chance to put it through it’s paces...
I like this review (first time watcher, now subscribed), and this saw is definitely in the mix to replace a nearly 30 year-old Delta XL-10 contractor saw. It's been good for me but is not aging gracefully, plus it takes up way too much space in my microshop. I like the look of this saw, but a folding cart with wheels would actually be right helpful, so this is not quite a clearcut winner for me, not yet.
Thanks again, and I'll be back!
Great informative video!!! My wife just bought this saw for me, I'm very impressed by its functionality. Super big improvement from the 20yr old ryobi I had.
I love my new skil table saw. Im 6'5 and i heard it was kinda short but honestly it really isn't that bad. If it becomes a problem il build a platform to gain a few inches. Its almost dead on out of the box. You dial 1.5 inches on fence its dead on the money. Its square, level and ready to rock.
Went through the process. Ultimately gave away my first saw and bought the Bosch. Now I use the Bosch like a regular shop saw. Plus it also came with a colapsable stand and wheels.
I appreciate the info and all the hard work,thank u gentlemen
I love to get honest input from someone who has professionally used a multitude of tool brands, and is able to give insightful tips, free advice as you follow along with the video. I really appreciate all the work you put into the channel and into your profession.😎🤠🤓😇
I like it. Skil saws have been around for a long time
Vince, nice review. I've been gone awhile, glad you're not screaming in this one.
Thank you! Great video, clear and easy to follow. I just received this table saw as a birthday gift and from the unboxing to setup, watching the video I'm excited to give mine a try now!
Excellent review, tutorial, demo, clear audio & not condescending 👍
This was a great demo
i like that Skil10" table saw. love it but is like say is loud very loud, but i like it. i might check it out. Vince thanks for the video . take care. be bless
Gotta admit, this is the best review I have seen so far from this saw. Good job
Definitely got me thinking of getting one
Dude you're killin' it on these reviews - this is the second Skil I've bought (the other the compound sliding mitre saw) based on your recommendation.
Thanks for the video and the information. I will consider this one. I am about to start little cabinets proyecto. Thank you so much! God bless you and your company!!
I got this just the other day. I immediately put it to work cutting up an old oak table into straps. It was a 1.5 inch thick table 8 ft long and 4 ft wide. This saw made short work of it with a 24 tooth blade. All of the cuts were nice with very little saw marks.
Those built in legs are genius! I've been looking at getting a dewalt. I'm just a home use builder/crafter so this will probably be good for me.
Nice saw! Just throw on some hearing protection. I used to have a 10” Rigid job site saw, that was nice. Ended up selling it and I picked up the M18 job site. Love that saw. Had to rip some Trex. Worked awesome!
Milwaukee m18 table saw is a great saw but the blade size is 8-1/4" not 10”. the 8-1/4” blade mades not differants to me for I grow up using my fathers table saw he got in the early 50’s… it had a 8-1/4’” blade on it too
I was looking for options for my very first table saw just the other day and I happened across this same saw and thought it looked like a great option. Didn't want to go super cheap like those Ryobi's or Hercules'. I feel much better about my findings after stumbling upon this video of yours. Also thank you for the calibration lesson. That'll be helpful!
I have the ryobi jobsite saw and it is amazing!!! And cheaper than this one
Tony, the Hercules is a better saw, but it's much like Loutenenant... Dan...he's got no legs.
I have watched several in depth comparison on the major players in this market. In one comparison against seven other saw the Skill finished first in the power of cutting but overall finished fourth or fifth of the eight saws. And considering Ridge finished last I guess fourth or fifth ain't to bad?!
This passed Black Friday I purchased a KOBALT from Lowe's as I was in need of a new saw and theirs was a $100 dollars off retail.
The two things I liked about the Skill was the power rating over the BIG NAME'S and the geared fence system.
As a retired log home builder the KOBALT saw was the best bang for the buck at $229.99!!! And that's my two cents. :-)
Just bought this today $299 @ Menards + I will get 11% rebate. The rebate buys me a Diablo blade; win win in my opinion. Wait third win VCG approved. Home woodwork warrior, excited and ready to go, used DeWalt T-saw for years (old model) but everything I see newer DeWalt may have a edge but I win and I saved $250-300.
Great video and saw looked very easy to use. Really great for a small shop.
HI VINCE !!! VERY NICELY DONE SIR !!!!
THANKS RODNEY
I'm impressed by all the new skil tools I have several and plan on buying this saw
Enjoyed your vid! No B.S. and no punches pulled! love it!!
As u say, I’d appreciate teal/steel to plastic components- although at its price point seems to be a pretty nice little saw. Keep up the awesome videos, I appreciate your opinions & reviews.
Picked this up today at my local BiMart for $275. The included legs makes this thing worth it. Did some test cuts, felt good but this is my first table saw ever. I like how it stores down with all the tools onboard.
Do you think legs will last? Seems lili storing it with legs down like ive seen in pictures and all the plastic in the legs they might breakdown?
Been looking for a new budget DIY saw as my next investment. I like my skill circular saw and now this table saw is top of the list. 👍
I've been using this for a couple weeks after my DeWalt finally died after 12 years...great saw! Accurate and powerful.
I wish it had a wheeled stand so I didn't have to carry it but looks like a good saw for a decent price. The Dewalts are nice and also pretty loud so not really an issue there.
I just bought one, in new zealand it comes with a 48 tooth blade, lucky me I am yet to test it yet but will put it through its paces this weekend. Very informative thanks.
Does a nice job! Good review I’m impressed 👍
I’m looking for a new one, and it looks promising. It does sound pretty freaking loud . Great Review, keep them coming.👍😎😷
Thanks! Was waiting for a review for this saw. Great job. Even more convinced about it. Been in the market for a while looking at Hitachi (Metabo HPT) but it fluctuates in price so much and at $569 currently, might as well get a DeWalt. $600+ though it's too much for my needs. This seems like a decent saw for a decent price for a pro-sumer product.
Best Skil table saw tutorial out there. Just purchased one. Good info. Thanks!
I ordered one based on your and others reviews can't wait I had to downsize my shop temporarily and missed not working my wood projects so I picked this saw up hope it has durabilioty and stays accurate! thnak you!
This table saw is my first diy and I love it
I know someone who has a Skil circular saw (not a skilsaw, a Skil brand [same brand as the saw in the video] circular saw), and let me tell you, it is the loudest saw I have ever heard. Ever. Every time it fires up I jump. It is front row at Metallica loud. It’s pretty powerful though!
🤣🤣
Like Button SMASHED! Content approved and appreciated. I’ve been considering where to spend some of my dough-ray-me on a portable table saw. You are absolutely right that it has some great features, namely the integrated stand, positive bevel stops and most importantly, the Rack and Pinion Fence! That is a winner. Also correct, and appreciate that you thought to look and point out that both the raise and lower gears and the fence pinion gear are all plastic. ( Not lovin’ that!) With all that said, it might be well worth at least considering the Skil for it’s bang for the buck. I do handyman type work, so day to day, the tasks vary widely, and would not need it every day. But it’s nice to have a solid go to option on the days and jobs where it is needed. Thanks Vince for keeping the very best info coming for the Very Cool Gang; we appreciate it and we appreciate you!
Solid review! Checked all the boxes for what I was wondering 🙏 Thank you!
Thank you, you made my decision. I just went out and bought it. 👍
Mine showed up last week. Ripped 2x4’s into 1 1/2 x 3/4 pieces, as well as lots of cuts on 3/4” Baltic birch plywood. Worked great. Awesome saw for my needs. Only con, like Vince said, it is really loud.
I've had this saw (Wich I love) a couple months and do not find it loud at all, my Porter Cable was louder
@@zackjames88 To be fair I work in a cabinet shop and am used to three phase saws, the blade spinning is literally louder than the motor on those. I would say this Skil table saw is about as loud as most miter saws I’ve used.
Thank you, alot of RUclipsr dont understand the meaning of DIY! Yes it a simple project a 10year old can do but your a professional using professional equipment. I'm not a carpenter so I dont own a table saw so that 10 min 5$ diy video turn into a week project that cost me over 500$ in tool!
Thank you for the review. I am considering this saw.
Is it really that loud?
I wish I had seen this Skil before I bought my kobalt , this Skil stuff is looking good..
Excellent breakdown of this saw. Thanks!
I got a Metabo 10 inch table saw in April of this year and I love it. It's pretty quite. Got it on sale for 399.99 normally 549.99
I love it! Bought it at Menards last week for $269 after rebate
Looks like a good saw to me. Better than the one I've been using.
Bought this saw, and set it up quickly. Fairly accurate out of the box. I bought a Diablo finish blade and installed it during the initial setup. I was using it for some Lifeproof flooring. The integrated stand is awesome, the hinges are alittle stiff of the out of the box but not a issue. Only this is don’t like is the huge bulky guard, it should have a detention for you to flip it up out of the way instead of being forced to remove it. They should have a spot on the saw to store it when you pop it off instead of tossing it on the floor lol
Thanks for the review and setup tips!
Other than the blade, everything included with the saw has a storage spot under the table (dust elbow, anti-kickback pawls, guard and fence).
Just bought this saw last week. Hadn’t seen this video and didn’t know anything about it. Went to the store planning on buying a different one. Saw this for $30 more ($299.99) and decided to get it. Love it so far. Great for beginners like myself. Easy to use, cuts great. Will upgrade the blade at some point but over it’s well worth investing in.
How is the noise level?
@@kjk7225 It’s pretty loud I guess. I wear ear protection so it doesn’t bother me. I’ve never had a table saw before so I don’t have anything to compare it to. Still think it’s a great saw!
Bought it....great features for the price. Gets the job done for me. Great review btw
Just bought one yesterday. Will be a massive improvement over my old, cheaper than dirt, job site " toy" table saw. 😂 Looking forward to trying it out.
How has it been for you? I just bought one yesterday
Great transparent review! Solid candidate for my work bench and future wood working station
Bought this saw and your video was the best in answering a couple of questions I had in assembling it. Great video.
Glad it is helpful Edward.
This looks pretty good
Thanks! You helped me decide on this saw, and set it up tonight, excited to get using it
Is it as loud as he says?
@@kjk7225 it is loud indeed, however it’s a power tool and that’s something I consider part of the deal.
Just made it 500 likes. Awesome video! Keep the great content coming.
I have the Skilsaw worm drive table saw and it’s quite good. The rolling stand is nice too.
Started my own business years back installing hardwood. I bought a skil saw. Junk within a year. Plastic bearing holders melted. Spent a little extra got a dewalt and love it. I have used it almost every day for 12 to 13 years and still beautiful.
Thats Skil 12 years ago, they did make cheaper stuff. This is Skil now. Glad we have current reviews instead of old prejudices. I bought this to replace my old Dewalt, got it on sale less than $300. For what I paid, its a solid deal. I apparently got a newer revision, came in a black box, and had some changes, and things like the throat plate were metal, not plastic. So apparently they are continuing to improve the product. That's a good sign.
@@wacollier My old prejudice Dewalt is still working great.
Great info. Thanks for showing us this saw.
Thanks for the video!!! Skil BayBee😂😂😂
