- Honestly cannot believe dewalt is not suppling this part. On the bigger saws they use a plastic ring, which is readily available, so I cannot see why they don't supply this cheap part that probably only costs 50c.

I am fully aware that you had no other option, but the level of creativity you show when it comes to some fixes is just incredible.
I would fabricate those from plastic chopping boards. The coloured thick ones you get are generally made of delrin which is often used as a bearing material, just slice a sliver then epoxy them in place
I actually used one for a freezer door hinge repair, the woman in produce was shocked when i cut a strip off the cutting board.
This a brilliant idea. I actually keep a few chopping board for odd bits like that. 👍
@@deandohertygreaser woohoo happy to give back 😁
@@patrickcowan8701Thanks for the tip, I tried gluing it back with epoxy but it always breaks
Brilliant fix! Thank you Sir!!!!!
You are a good man Dean.
Well thinked, well fixed, well done.👍👍👍
That plastic part reminds me of retainer clips for cars.
If you could get a round piece (the diameter of the part you need, or close) of nylon, or polyethylene, or such, those could be easily turned on a lathe. Just an idea...
I will never get why someone would buy a "cordless" huge, heavy and stationary piece of machinery 😂 thats defeats the whole point of batteries
Simple, for using in a place where there is no maons power
It's lighter than a generator and if there is mains it saves having to carry around a heavy 110v transformer
@@Ray.m0Does the UK/ireland mandates 110v for every type of construction work?
I wonder how many amps that would draw if it was corded and you had a converter connected to your worktruck.
Surely that is a listing error. That seems insane that tiny part which looks like a sacrificial part is not available
I never heard back from the dewalt agent. So I'm assuming it's not available
Another great advert for Makita.
somehow my first comment did not went through...
This part could be 3D-Printed with tribologic filament. So, no more grease on this gliding surface that allows dust to stick.
My roughly estimate of the dimensions are 15mm diamenter of the plate with a height of 1,75mm and 5mm diameter of the pole with an overall height of 10mm.
One supplier for printed tribologic stuff is igus.
According to their configurator it would cost 1,54€/piece with a lead time of 3 business days if you order 100 Pieces of this :) [I made a model and checked quickly]
I cant' believe the customer wouldn't blow of that saw before dropping off.
My thoughts exactly
Built in obsolescence banned in some countries shameful and basically scamming
I have a cheap GMC 12" compound mitre saw and owned it since new so 14yrs and the base and swivel part of the base are just 2 machined surfaces sliding on each other and they have never ended up with a tilting base like this new stuff, why they feel the need to put plastic discs on them is a mystery they must have known they would eventually wear out so they should sell them as a consumable item like brushes, your boss man needs to invest in a little bench top lathe so you can do things like that for when your in a pinch and to clean up armature commutators so customers don't come back complaining that the machine is still sparking.
Necessity is the mother of invention
It’s mad to think that there’s parts you can’t buy from company who uses those parts to make the damn thing. Surely every part used should be available
Wow dean there’s nothing you can’t fix great video
But Dean, you did have a wee lathe... and handheld one from Skil 😁
3D printer ?
Indeed! I wonder if Dean ever considered buying one.
Thats her!
Insure them hands of yours Dean
I would fabricate it from Teflón to get better slide
Like all these things, I wonder why only one pad wore out? Why didn't all three wear evenly? I wonder if it was damaged when originally assembled. Also, the quandary of grease, helps reduce friction but also holds grit/dirt/dust. Catch 22 situation. Good save though. 👍
Its a shame when perfectly good stuff gets killed over a simple part .
Here is where having or having a friend who has a 3d printer would be a huge benefit. Would take me less than 5 minutes to create a model of one of those and something that small I could print out a dozen in less than 20 minutes. The only real decision would be figuring out the best filament to use for durability.
Probably Nylon.
@@Mobin92 probably, but honestly for what it is, PETG would likely be fine and be far more pleasant to print, not to mention cheaper. I have a roll of nylon. I've printed with it one time. Beautiful end product, but good god what a headache to print with.
Petit commentaire pour le référencement !!! le petit com qui fait plaisir.................
Wow, who leaves a saw like that? That owner of the saw needs a good a$$ Kickin’ 😯 Always clean off a miter saw after use, especially if it is going in for repairs! 🙄
Crazy and idiotic on DeWalt’s part on not offering something so simple for a replacement part!? 🙄 What an absolute brilliant solution there Dean! That owner needs to install a new Kerf plate!
Another ingenious repair by the ‘Up and Coming LEGENDARY’ Dean Doherty !!!!!!!!!! 👍 😊
I could draw up on fusion 360 and print those bushes.
Isn't it ironic that an expensive tool fails on a part that probably costs a less than a dollar
Hey Dean - could you modify a nylon or plastic bolt - sand head down for thickness?
We can get nylon bolts in U.S. hardware stores
3D model and 3D print using abs
I wonder if this is a part that could be 3d printed?
Hey dean, do you repair machine as a full time job or is this a side job?
What is the best 110v miter saw dean big fan of the videos
Something ceramic Dean ?
Not every job has power so by your thinking/logic we should get a 110v or 240v and carry a big lumpy generator around 👍
Good thinking logic for ya guess your not a tradesman with real world experience
The bigger DCS790 uses a sliding ring instead which would seam almost impossible to wear out. This one seams like a horrible design.
Hey Dean I have a dcn21pl that is doesn't fire every time some time it just clicks instead of shooting a nail any thoughts I took it apart nothing stands out at being broken
it's easy to make with 3D printer
Hi dean, what would be a good 110v chop saw to buy to replace my old tired dw 708 with? Not sure if the newer dewalt saws are the way to go.
If your 708 is still running good. I would stick with that. Fabtastic saw. Other that that.bid be going with makita for a good sae at a good price or a festool for a accurate saw at a not so good price, but still worth it
Does Makita saw do the same thing
They use like a half moon plastic strip on each side, those are available as a set.
This sort if thing us disgusting behaviour on behalf of the tool manufacturer. I see this as a consumable part and this is the part they choose not to make available. Yet another good reason not to buy dewalt.
My saw has this issue.
Now you have a fix
Why do these tradesmens tool companies make tools to fail now days it wouldn't be like this when they made tools like elu years ago
Money,greed,profit. That particular saw if you take in the states at a rep service center you will get it back worse than you brought it in. Incompetence is rampant too.
because they literally dont make them anymore, its just a china factory that slaps the branding on top of it. Most of the brands comes from the same factory
They sell something like that on E,bay for £6.99 pack of 3 if this helps m8.
DeWalt Mitre Saw Quicklock, Roller & Insert Set For DW707 DW707E
I'm fairly sure that is the small wheel at the end of the safeguard, Dewalt calls them rollers and quicklock is that iron bush you lock on the plastic pin to keep the wheel in place.
