Just found your channel and current reviewing all Harvey related videos on TH-cam, looking to upgrade from my Delta. Please keep the videos coming very informative
Love that saw I have an old jet contractor saw that works well but all the parts are obsolete so as stuff is starting to break inhave to fabricate fixes for it but hey that life right keep up the good work
It’s so awkward shooting a review video like this. Never know if I showed too much or too little haha. Plus lighting and filming is not as easy as one would think.
I can't imagine! Tiktok is where i go to learn what's out there and i feel youtube is where i go to actually learn tools and how to make something. I appreciate it.
Also, i guess since i bought a table saw now, I'll throw my name in the hat for the miter gauge! Mine is a little loose in the slot. It was the only downfall of the dewalt 8 1/4 saw.
I really enjoyed your video and the review. I’m considering building a 25x36 shop and will likely buy Harvey equipment. I look forward to many years of building fine furniture!
I would love the miter gauge not for myself actually, I too have one. But I love it so much I would love nothing more than to give one to my mentor. The man who got me into woodworking years ago as a thank you for changing my life. Please please please please. Lol
My table saw has been in my Pop’s storage unit in NC for nearly a decade, since my divorce. The last few years, his memory had declined terribly, and paranoia set in. Now that I’ve settled in Seattle, I’ve got a place to put it, but it just wasn’t worth estranging my father to get my shop tools. He passed a few weeks ago, so I’ll be renting a truck soon to bring them out, a Pop-in-a-Box Road Trip with my son, if you will. One thing I’m lacking is a good miter gauge. I always meant to get something better than the stock gauge, but for whatever reason, never got around to it.
Why do it want it…. Because it looks like an awesome tool. I’m sure I would put it to great use! Great video my man! Can’t wait to see what else you put out!
just another note... I was hoping that you would have commented on the router / shaper table... 🥴👍 That miter gauge would really make a great addition to my shop. 👊
Hey brotha that beard is looking as good as that gold top. Love the video and how you hit every point about the saw. And we’re honest about what you like and didn’t like. So you know it’s a true review not a clouded review cuz they sent it to you. That saw is a beast 💪🏼 and Harvey picked a great ambassador.
Hey hey! It’s so awkward shooting this type of video. I’ll get better in the future! Thank you so much for the support. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate the support.
Very nice detail video, it seens that this may be the table saw to buy, I love the quality of Harvey’s products, also It will be nice very nice if I can win the compas miter gauge. Thanks you for taking the time to do this video it really helps us to make a smart decision on buying the next table saw.
Wow, incredible saw! I have drooled over this before when Stubbenubs reviewed his. It is a shame though, that you have to spend thousands of dollars to get the quality this table saw has when 80 years ago it was the only way they were built. Like Harvey, quality mattered to those manufacturers from years ago. This is heirloom quality. A saw that can stay in the family for generations to come. Well, in my dreams I can have this saw, lol. In the meantime, I search for an affordable table saw that is from the 1950s, and 60s when they were made of cast iron and made to last. I'm very happy for you and from what I have read about these saws, you will enjoy the saw and it will make production go smoother and faster. Best of luck with it!
Would love to win the MG36 as I currently had to sell my saw and setup to move to a new location. I have been looking at the Harvey saws to replace what I have used in the past.
Thank you for providing such an informative video. I have always been a DIY person at heart and have never owned large professional woodworking gear. After moving into a new house, my wife gave me a laundry list of projects to work on. All of which consist of custom cabinet making (walk-n closet, cabinets on either side of a fireplace, walk-in pantry shallow cabinets and shelves, and laundry room cabinets). I am looking at the Harvey ALPHA HW110LC-36P to begin my journey because I have a 20-amp 115V outlet already available in my garage. I live in Florida where the humidity is pretty high. Would the TiN coated table be worth the extra $650? Also, is the underside of the non-coated table painted to prevent rust. I am look at the care of the coated and non-coated cast iron surfaces. On the table's price point, it fits my budget of purchasing the equipment in the first project. I expect the total of materials and table will come in under what the custom work would cost. I am working on estimates for full custom contracted work, hybrid, and stock cabinet prices. I get most of my working knowledge for projects from TH-cam so please continue to produce quality content like this. Thanks again. - Karim
I would definitely like to have the Harvey saw set up the same way you do only with the additional sliding table. Eventually I'll replace my table saw and I'll be looking at Harvey.
Thanks for the review I'm currently debating on whether to get this saw or the sawstop equivalent. The sawstop is nice but their prices have gone up. Winning that saw would be pretty sweet. I do hand restoration videos and I would like to do a unboxing video
I’ve been trying to find honest reviews of Harvey Table Saw, I’m considering buying, and its hard to find anyone who is doing reviews on anything other than SawStop. The coated table would be a godsend to a guy who lives in humid south Louisiana. I particularly like your comments on the dove-tail trunnion, as this reference in the saw’s website was lost to me, as I have very little personal experience with table saws.
I’m not in a place to afford a saw like that but my cheap rigid will suffice for now. Desperately need to upgrade the stock miter gauge though! That Harvey looks amazing.
Thanks for actually going in-depth on some features. Been eyeballing this saw. I'd like to win the MG36 so that I can give away the one that comes with my saw when actually order my 3hp Alpha later this year.
I've been looking for a new table saw and I've came across Harvey on TH-cam. They seem to have the best table saw in the business along with the band saw and dust collection we will be purchasing all of it soon looking forward to it.
@1915 Woodworks; great share, thanks. not to be critical but as many people mispronounce, the word height is pronounced more like “HITE”. Because it ends in ght, many people confused it to be gth and pronounce the word “HITHE”
Love your video. Look forward to seeing more videos from you in the future. Keep up the good work. Whoever wins the miter gauge will be very lucky to get such an awesome looking piece of equipment.
I’m fairly new to woodworking and have learned everything I know from TH-cam a quality miter gauge would be a big help for accuracy and I’m gonna get you the rest of the subs to get you to 1000
Thanks for the review I’ve watched your channel for a little while now I have the regular miter gauge that came with my delta tablesaw it would be great to upgrade keep putting out the good contact I like your work God bless
I enjoyed your presentation of the Harvey table saw but my garage is not wired to support that motor. Will have to look them up to see if they make a hybrid. I have a 36year old Craftsman contractors saw that the tables miter gauge has seen it's day. I have been looking at replacements but good ones are so expensive. I would love to have the Harvey miter gauge.
Great review and love your TikTok page too (that’s actually what brought me to your TH-cam page). I Would love the MG36 because the miter gauge that I have is almost impossible to get and keep at a true 90 making my cuts less precise and my projects less professional looking. It is frustrating to get things measure and cut only to have them not fit together flush!
I am most interested in looking at the dovetail system that is used to elevate the sawblade. Would you be willing to add to this video or add a new one showing a closeup of the blade system? The front and back end of it and the elevation mechanism.
I would love to win the saw because I have recently started woodworking and realized quality tools are expensive and also necessary to do quality work. I also have decided to be home more since my wife is disabled and I need to come off the road as a truck driver and can make things I can sell through woodworking. Thank you for your videos, they are really inspiring
Great review on the table saw and accessories . I first saw this on TikTok and said I wish my saw was that smooth. When I got my latest table saw, I bought a delta for $500. I thought it was great until I saw yours and am now jealous with envy. This saw and accessories would greatly increase productivity and make every aspect run as smooth as that fence. Regardless if I am chosen as the recipient of the giveaway. I will be saving some money to invest in a new table saw and all the goodies that it comes with. Have a great day and continue producing amazing products
Bought my Harvey Alpha HW 110S-36P in late 2022. I have owned many cast iron tool over the last 40 years and my honest assessment is the cast iron surface on my new Harvey Table saw is the absolute worst of any tool I have ever owned. I know how to care for cast iron surfaces too. I have had the jointer for 40 years and it looks good. It has zero rust and I only apply furniture paste wax every 3-4 months. To keep my new Harvey table saw looking halfway decent, I have to work on it every 7 - 10 days to keep significant rust from showing up ( usually in the exact same areas as a few days earlier). I totally regret my purchase from Harvey. Also, I have called to get advice on this issue from Harvey’s customer service and I never get a response from them.
I have started looking at getting a Harvey. There are a lot of videos for just a 3yr old company! They really seem well built. The fence just really kicks up the game. Really appreciate your content! wish you the best with your channel!
Nice honest review. I want to upgrade to a harvey or sawstop at some point, but not until I get a few more board feet out of my delta. NExt buy however is a good miter, so if I didn't have to buy it, that would be nice! I watched TWW review and although he had issues with his review piece, I think it was an anomaly and all the features seem to point to it being the best available.
Already have that miter gauge, I like it a lot. just wanted to throw this out there, don’t put the screw into the throat plate. It may be there just for shipping?
Love that saw. Maybe one day I’ll have a shop in which I could use one. I would like the Harvey miter because I still use the crappy miter that came with my saw. I’ve been looking to upgrade but can’t afford the Harvey and the cheaper options aren’t as nice as the Harvey.
I don’t know if the giveaway is still open but if it is, I would like to be able to use a high quality miter gauge to help me up my woodworking game. I am still pretty new and learning day by day.
Man that saw looks as advertised. Smooth clean and massive. Never seen a fence glide like that. Been looking for my next table saw and I think I just found it. I heard about Harvey from your tiktok. Winning a MG-36 for me would help me grow from hobby to small business as i am very new to it. I work out of my garage part time and my other time is caring for my 97 year old grandfather.
Took on my grandpas woodworking tools when he passed away 5 years ago. Getting my feet wet in some small furniture building and will move towards a side hustle down the road but just enjoy getting used to all of his tools. This would be a great addition to the tablesaw I am currently using and hoping to upgrade one day.
wicked saw that's for sure; great honest review. That fence looks amazing and wished my saw had a fence like that...Winning a MG-36 would just add to my saw set up making more accurate cross cuts; the easy to use stop for repeatable cuts would increase productivity for my little shop. I too live in Canada; if chosen I would 100% pay for all shipping/import fees to receive this amazing product.
Followed you over here from TikTok! Love the straightforward content and the work you do. Having a miter gauge would be massive for my small "shop", and would let me take a jump forward in the quality and precision of the work I do. Keep up the great work!
That Harvey is so much better made than my old bargain saw from the big blue store. I’m building a small business to supplement my retirement and I definitely need to upgrade my bigger machines. Great video!
These are really nice looking saws. I am looking to upgrade from a 2003 Jet JWTS 10 to either a Harvey or a Saw Stop in a year or two, hopefully less. I’ve made quite a few mods to the Jet and it has served me well. I think it’s time to hand it down to my son. Actually just yesterday I went to use the original Jet miter and it was totally off and hard to adjust and then get back to to 90. I saw your video and thought damn, that MG36 is a damn nice miter set up, I wonder if it would work on my Jet?!?! That’s why I would love that MG 36. Keep up the great videos!
Great looking saw. I'm slowly starting my own company. I recently bought a used grizzly without a miter gauge and the Harvey gauge looks awesome. I really wish I heard about Harvey before I bought this saw I would of a Harvey.
The saw is awesome, I'm pretty green with envy. As for the miter guage, that's probly 1000 times nicer, and more accurate than what I've been using , would make a great addition to my shop. Keep up with the great vids !
Good review, thanks. I have the 36" 2hp cast iron table top, and this is a great value for what is included. I installed the blade guard and the dust collection thingy. I can confirm it works wonders in most cases. BUT it means thin kerf blades can't pretty much be installed or one must install the thin riving knife and work without the blade guard, which I don't like. The blade guard on a table saw is IMHO the main safety feature. There are a few other things that are kinda quirky, like that paddle switch (I must be cursing the damn'd thing about once a day...) or the mobile base (Bora imitation, not very good in my opinion). Overall, I really like the machine and it's very well made. The power is there especially switched to 220V like mine. It rocks a full kerf ripping blade without a hitch in 1" oak. Cheers!
Fantastic review! I've been drooling over the Harvey line for a few years since they came out. What a sexy machine! If I win, the incra will be moving to my day job at the cabinet shop, and the Harvey will have a new home next to my Unisaw. PS this is vriesensfww on TT!
Just found your channel and current reviewing all Harvey related videos on TH-cam, looking to upgrade from my Delta. Please keep the videos coming very informative
Thank you for the information. Looks like a great addition to your shop.
Thanks!
Your video hit my feed as I research Harvey saws and they have my attention. Thanks for the information and good luck getting the channel going.
Very practical presentation that appears sincere without bias. Thanks!
Great review I have been looking at getting the same table saw
excellent overview!
Thanks for the review. I have been looking at the Harvey line of table saws.
Followed you here from TikTok. Great content. The miter gauge will go great with my sawstop JSS
Excellent video I would love to have a Harvey
Excellent review. I'm trying to decide between this saw and the Saw-Stop.
Love that saw I have an old jet contractor saw that works well but all the parts are obsolete so as stuff is starting to break inhave to fabricate fixes for it but hey that life right keep up the good work
I've been thinking about ordering one of these. Great video!
Just built a new garage and laundry room. Looking at getting into cabinet building. This would be a big help for me! Thanks for the review.
Great looking saw.... that fence looks awesome to use!
Nice review! I just bought my first table saw today. Spamming all the table saw content i can now :)
It’s so awkward shooting a review video like this. Never know if I showed too much or too little haha. Plus lighting and filming is not as easy as one would think.
I can't imagine! Tiktok is where i go to learn what's out there and i feel youtube is where i go to actually learn tools and how to make something. I appreciate it.
Also, i guess since i bought a table saw now, I'll throw my name in the hat for the miter gauge! Mine is a little loose in the slot. It was the only downfall of the dewalt 8 1/4 saw.
Harvey is an AWESOME SAW and their MG-36 is the best on the market…LOVE to get it as a giveaway!!
Congratulations, a well done video!
I really enjoyed your video and the review. I’m considering building a 25x36 shop and will likely buy Harvey equipment. I look forward to many years of building fine furniture!
I’d love one, but sure someone worthy will receive this! Carry on your Great works!
I would love the miter gauge not for myself actually, I too have one. But I love it so much I would love nothing more than to give one to my mentor. The man who got me into woodworking years ago as a thank you for changing my life.
Please please please please. Lol
Would love to have the Harvey compass. Been saving my dollars for that exact saw. Good job with the review!
Awesome saw I am looking to upgrade from my contractor saw and am leaning toward the Harvey.
My table saw has been in my Pop’s storage unit in NC for nearly a decade, since my divorce. The last few years, his memory had declined terribly, and paranoia set in. Now that I’ve settled in Seattle, I’ve got a place to put it, but it just wasn’t worth estranging my father to get my shop tools. He passed a few weeks ago, so I’ll be renting a truck soon to bring them out, a Pop-in-a-Box Road Trip with my son, if you will. One thing I’m lacking is a good miter gauge. I always meant to get something better than the stock gauge, but for whatever reason, never got around to it.
Love the saw. Ordered one today
Ohhh That miter guage would look soooo good on my Ambassador!!! Plz put me in the running!!
Starting on... or continuing my woodworking journey, almost have our shop up and running. I am considering this saw!
Great review
Why do it want it…. Because it looks like an awesome tool. I’m sure I would put it to great use! Great video my man! Can’t wait to see what else you put out!
just another note... I was hoping that you would have commented on the router / shaper table... 🥴👍
That miter gauge would really make a great addition to my shop. 👊
Well done video on the Harvey saw. It looks like a great product. I would be most interested in winning the miter gage.
I look forward to buying the 2 hp with tin top. Yours is beautiful.
Very nice review. 👍🏼
Bought a laguna fusion… it’s already listed on Craigslist. Will be ordering the Harvey Alpha
Hey brotha that beard is looking as good as that gold top. Love the video and how you hit every point about the saw. And we’re honest about what you like and didn’t like. So you know it’s a true review not a clouded review cuz they sent it to you. That saw is a beast 💪🏼 and Harvey picked a great ambassador.
Hey hey! It’s so awkward shooting this type of video. I’ll get better in the future! Thank you so much for the support. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate the support.
F me running, that thing is awesome sauce
I want to win so that I can make accurate crosscuts on my table saw. Keep up the great content.
Very nice detail video, it seens that this may be the table saw to buy, I love the quality of Harvey’s products, also It will be nice very nice if I can win the compas miter gauge.

The Tin coating looks sic, I wouldn’t mind winning the mitre gauge, the build quality looks amazing, best in the market.
I’m not in a place to afford a saw like that but my cheap rigid will suffice for now. Desperately need to upgrade the stock miter gauge though! That Harvey looks amazing.
Thanks for actually going in-depth on some features. Been eyeballing this saw. I'd like to win the MG36 so that I can give away the one that comes with my saw when actually order my 3hp Alpha later this year.
I am very interested in the Harvey brand. These saws seem like a bargain compared to Saw Stop, PM, Etc. Thanks for the review.
Great review. Great saw. Subscribed, put me in for the miter gauge.
The more I see this saw, the more I want to replace my old craftsman with it!
I've been looking for a new table saw and I've came across Harvey on TH-cam. They seem to have the best table saw in the business along with the band saw and dust collection we will be purchasing all of it soon looking forward to it.
@1915 Woodworks; great share, thanks. not to be critical but as many people mispronounce, the word height is pronounced more like “HITE”. Because it ends in ght, many people confused it to be gth and pronounce the word “HITHE”
Love your video. Look forward to seeing more videos from you in the future. Keep up the good work. Whoever wins the miter gauge will be very lucky to get such an awesome looking piece of equipment.
I’m fairly new to woodworking and have learned everything I know from TH-cam a quality miter gauge would be a big help for accuracy and I’m gonna get you the rest of the subs to get you to 1000
I really need a new accurate miter gauge
Thanks for the review I’ve watched your channel for a little while now I have the regular miter gauge that came with my delta tablesaw it would be great to upgrade keep putting out the good contact I like your work God bless
I enjoyed your presentation of the Harvey table saw but my garage is not wired to support that motor. Will have to look them up to see if they make a hybrid.
I have a 36year old Craftsman contractors saw that the tables miter gauge has seen it's day.
I have been looking at replacements but good ones are so expensive.
I would love to have the Harvey miter gauge.
Nicely done. I love your content, been a TikTok fan for a while. I could use that for my Delta saw, only have the stock miter gauge, for that.
Great review and love your TikTok page too (that’s actually what brought me to your TH-cam page). I Would love the MG36 because the miter gauge that I have is almost impossible to get and keep at a true 90 making my cuts less precise and my projects less professional looking. It is frustrating to get things measure and cut only to have them not fit together flush!
Very Nice machine! I wish I could have one. and the Miter gage... why only US? I'm in Canada. I'd advertise easily for them!
Shipping costs mainly. But I would open this to international if the winner paid for shipping :)
I am most interested in looking at the dovetail system that is used to elevate the sawblade. Would you be willing to add to this video or add a new one showing a closeup of the blade system? The front and back end of it and the elevation mechanism.
I think God wants me to have one before I retire as a nurse
I would love to win the saw because I have recently started woodworking and realized quality tools are expensive and also necessary to do quality work. I also have decided to be home more since my wife is disabled and I need to come off the road as a truck driver and can make things I can sell through woodworking.

Harvey seems to be the only table saw that ships with a premium fence. Just as this saw deserves.
I would love to have that saw because of the powerful motor you mentioned! It would be a HUGE upgrade over my job site saw.
Already have that miter gauge, I like it a lot. just wanted to throw this out there, don’t put the screw into the throat plate. It may be there just for shipping?
Love your videos on tiktok. Having a decent miter gauge would be a huge upgrade over the little one that came with my Dewalt.
Love that saw. Maybe one day I’ll have a shop in which I could use one. I would like the Harvey miter because I still use the crappy miter that came with my saw. I’ve been looking to upgrade but can’t afford the Harvey and the cheaper options aren’t as nice as the Harvey.

Nice looking saw. I got the Kreg miter gauge, it’s meh at best, the Harvey one looks 🔥

These are really nice looking saws. I am looking to upgrade from a 2003 Jet JWTS 10 to either a Harvey or a Saw Stop in a year or two, hopefully less. I’ve made quite a few mods to the Jet and it has served me well. I think it’s time to hand it down to my son. Actually just yesterday I went to use the original Jet miter and it was totally off and hard to adjust and then get back to to 90. I saw your video and thought damn, that MG36 is a damn nice miter set up, I wonder if it would work on my Jet?!?! That’s why I would love that MG 36. Keep up the great videos!
I want to win because my Harvey miter gauge cannot be adjusted enough to remove the slop and won’t provide accurate cuts.
Hopefully yours is better…
Do you think I could get this in my basement going down stairs to get there? I’m seriously wanting one but I am concerned with getting it down there.
That’s a nice saw! Fence looks crazy smooth to use. Like to use that Harvey mg miter gauge on my projects! Thanks for the chance to own one.
Great looking saw. I'm slowly starting my own company. I recently bought a used grizzly without a miter gauge and the Harvey gauge looks awesome. I really wish I heard about Harvey before I bought this saw I would of a Harvey.
The saw is awesome, I'm pretty green with envy. As for the miter guage, that's probly 1000 times nicer, and more accurate than what I've been using , would make a great addition to my shop. Keep up with the great vids !
Love the gold top! Looks like Harvey is very proud of their work as they should be 👍🏻. Very well built machine
Good review, thanks. I have the 36" 2hp cast iron table top, and this is a great value for what is included. I installed the blade guard and the dust collection thingy. I can confirm it works wonders in most cases. BUT it means thin kerf blades can't pretty much be installed or one must install the thin riving knife and work without the blade guard, which I don't like. The blade guard on a table saw is IMHO the main safety feature.
There are a few other things that are kinda quirky, like that paddle switch (I must be cursing the damn'd thing about once a day...) or the mobile base (Bora imitation, not very good in my opinion). Overall, I really like the machine and it's very well made. The power is there especially switched to 220V like mine. It rocks a full kerf ripping blade without a hitch in 1" oak.
Cheers!
I need an improved miter gauge. So please enter me in the contest
Fantastic review! I've been drooling over the Harvey line for a few years since they came out. What a sexy machine! If I win, the incra will be moving to my day job at the cabinet shop, and the Harvey will have a new home next to my Unisaw. PS this is vriesensfww on TT!
Very well done review. I love how Harvey does their fence system! And that gold top looks sweet!
Do you have any experience with the Harvey brand? Or have you heard from other woodworkers their experience? Their base table saw is within my budget.
