    Not vomitous, Mike. Seriously, this is THE best tip/product content I've seen in 4 years for table saws - you honestly didn't recycle anything from the eleventy-million other videos out there. I'm going to tag this with 'watch later' for both tips and products... the information packed in here is so dense, it warps spacetime. Also, flat bottom grooves... they make the rockin' world go round.
    Question: why do you stamp your name in your blades?

    My dad used the cheaper/older version of the table saw molder all the time. He would even grind his own custom shapes. But they can be dangerous. He was doing a custom shape and went to lunch. His shop helper decided to "help" and finish up some of the molding he was making. It did not end well. Reconstructive hand surgery and months of healing was the result. Thanks for the informative video.

    I have a 1/4" HP power feeder attached to my table saw via four Magswitches. Best tool investment I've made. Only once have I had an issue ripping without a riving knife. No kick back with the power feeder but I did burn hard maple when the power feeder couldn't push the piece when the maple bound together at the end, so I stuck a shim in the end of the piece and continued on.
    My rips are very consistent by not needing to stop in the middle of a long rip to adjust my hands, which often leaves a mark on the edge. By keeping your hands away from the blade using a power feeder adds huge level of safety, IMO. Also way less fatiguing when ripping many pieces. I would have gotten a 1/2 HP feeder for more power for long 8/4 material, but I'd need more powerful Magswitches (already have over 2600 hold down pounds) and it would be too heavy to move.

    • @MikeFarrington
      @MikeFarrington  ปีที่แล้ว

      I have shown similar results in a couple other videos. A table saw and powerfeeder are like shoes and socks. Also, try an 18 tooth blade when dealing with maple, burning will be greatly reduced.

      I am a semi-retired flooring installer, and while I still look at it with distain, have a healthy respect for my main tool, an 8 1/2" DeWalt jobsite saw. A lot of what I do involves making cuts to wrap around doors, pillars, floor mount HVAC vents, etc. A lot of what I do is freehand...no miter gauge or fence...because many cuts are out of square or just plain weird. I advised my boss that 7 1/4" blades could be had for half the price of the 8 1/2" blades, because of the specialty size. They will also flex a little, which is desirable in my case for making long wavy rip cuts to match a wall. A 40 tooth 7 1/4" blade cuts as nicely as a 10" 60 tooth does...if you consider the math ((C=πr squared).
      Warning: I am a trained professional. Don't try this at home😉

    Your theory on the wobble dado is humorous. Though I have a book from 1911 'The A.B.C. of woodworking' by Charles G. Wheeler. It actually suggests cutting your own wedges to create a wobble dado blade. The commercial version would likely be actually safer than a shop made wedge which may explode and frankly looks like a terrifying idea even as an illustration in a book.

    I love my 18t rip blade. I've been thinking about the CMT set. And I have a brand new molding in the old Dewalt variant. I can also vouch for the truly sketchy wobble dado. 1986. A Tuesday morning just before break time. Working by myself. I had a serious accident. The wobble definitely adds to the kick back potential, and the more it's maxed out, the worse it gets.

      1989. 3/4" cut. Wobble kicked the workpiece out and left index finger got shredded. 8 1/2 hrs later with a finger/hand specialist and the finger is 98% as good as new. The blade was never mounted in a saw again and hangs at the back of my shop in my sight line to the offcut end of my saw. Every time I turn the saw on, I look up and see that acursed wobble blade. I slow down. Take a breath. Think if how I am approaching the cut is the best and safest way.
      Orthopedic bill was $32,000...by the way.

    I think a big reason that CMT made their box joint blades only 8" diameter is likely for compatibility with with SawStop saws. The dado break cartridge can then be used with it effectively.

    Great video Mike. Hopefully you will video the Unisaw rebuild? My first table saw was a1960s Unisaw from a school shop. I really liked that thick rip blade but worried my current saw (jobsite) would have trouble spinning it.

    CMT also sells grooving blades individually, in multiple sizes. I have 2 for my tiny dewalt jobsite saw. IMO they are a great alternative to dado stacks here in Europe, and they're pretty cheap too. I think they're around ~25€ each, I got the 150mm 3mm and 6mm versions.
