Wow a real working shop video, not the usual influencer that doesn’t actually make a product. I can relate with the scraps, hardwood would be saved and used for the fireplace.
Your woodworking and design skills are impressive and the fact that your videos aren't watered down with a bunch of unnecessary dialogue have made me a fan since I first found your MFTC video several years ago. Bravo Mr Wilmots and keep up the great work.
Thanks for that, I try to keep it to the point. With my website I can now give all the necessary information there for those who care. When I watch a video I usually fast forward through all the talking as well.
Fun video with some great ideas on improving workflow to deal with waste. As a potential K700 owner I enjoyed seeing the slider in action. But you need plenty of space - and your workshop dimensions are impressive. Thanks for sharing!
That shop and table saw is amazing, and your efficiency is top notch ! I won't live long enough to see your work when you're my age now, but I'm glad I'm seeing it at your age now :-)
All looks very impressive my outfeed table doubles as my main work bench due to space when using for large panels it's a must to have, I don't use the volume of timber as you do so my need for scrap collection is usually just my log burner but I like your organisation
I did some checking around the web, on the topic of woodworking, and was able to confirm that you have won the internet on that topic. Congrats! (not sarcastic)
When it's full you need a forklift to get it out, but with a bag you wouldn't need to empty the bin entirely before being able to lift the bag out. I didn't use a bag on my first saw and I would just empty the top of the bin out of lazyness. So it was constantly full.
Hello Timothy, I'm looking at buying this same model K700S sliding saw and was wondering if you could tell me the width of that shop space its sitting in from wall to wall. this would be in the direction the sliding table moves. Would much appreciate this, Thank you!
I just bought a used K700s and it takes a lot of room. The information you want is in the saw manual. I would talk to a Felder sales person. I'm going to have to remove some support posts from my shop to make room.
@@tundrawhisperer4821 I hadn't thought of doing that, but you're right, it would make a good video. The parts I just ordered are on backorder so it will be a few weeks. Anyway I can let you know when I have it set up. Other videos you might watch are. ExtremeWoodworker especially his " Ripping using the fritz and franz jig." I think this is a must for sliding table owners that want to use their saws for more than panel processing.
@@tomruth9487 I would be very interested in seeing how you progress with this set up. I’m still in the market for one myself. I’ve watch all of Extreme Woodworker’s videos. His is a “dream” saw set up for sure! I process a ton of sheet goods, and also mill miles of my own face frame from rough stock. So I need a saw that can perform both capabilities for sure. I’d like to take the three stations I have in my shop, that I use to process sheet goods, and combine them into one good quality sliding table saw. I’m considering driving down to Felder in California to get a better look at them in person.
@@tundrawhisperer4821 I'm keeping my old table saw and going to leave a rip blade on it for lumber and face frames etc. The Felder certainly will rip and it's great for straightlining lumber, or anything, but I get tired of changing the blade and taking off the scoring blade etc. Not sure if you have the room to keep two saws, I don't really have room, but I'm going to make room anyway and see if it works out. I did shorten the capacity (left to right) of my fence so it takes up less space however. I'm basically making the old table saw compact as possible as lumber is usually not wider than 16" max.
Timothy Wilmots thank you. Do you find that with the ability to use the slider to rip things too, having the 31” capacity is probably plenty then? Do you know how much room the slide uses up during a full motion sliding from one end to the other?
@@tundrawhisperer4821 I don't really have a problem with the length of the rip fence, it works for every type of cuts but you have to adjust it's position. For the space it takes, you need to add the length of the slider in front and behind the blade, plus maybe 20cm. You also need to take into account that you need at least 1m of walking space front and back. So a 3m slider would take about 6020cm + 2m of free space.
Timothy Wilmots that’s very good to know, thank you. And which slider length is yours, do you have the 9’ XRoll? Do you use metric in your everyday woodworking? Or can these have imperial scales on them too? Do you have any of the digital options built into yours? Thanks again.
Salut Timothy, Je pense voir une perceuse à colonne Optimum en arrière plan. Quel modèle utilises-tu ? Et quelle puissance minimale conseillerais-tu pour de la menuiserie uniquement (pas spécialement de besoin pour le métal). Merci. Bonne continuation avec tes vidéos !
Bonjour Aurélien, C'est une Quantum B16 (identique à Optimum je crois) d'occasion. Il y à un peu de jeu sur les roulements mais sinon elle me convient. La courroie peut patiner quand on force trop mais ça permet de ne pas bruler les mèches. Pour le bois on peut être moins exigeant, j'en ai une autre pour le métal, le même type de machine mais la il faudrait plus de puissance idéalement.
Hey Timothy, I'm looking at buying a Felder KF 700 S Professional. I see that you didn't get the digital scales with your saw nor did you get the precision mitre index system. Was that on purpose or did you want the saw the way it is in the video? If you had to buy it again, would you upgrade or buy the same? Please let me know as buying a piece of equipment like this is a huge commitment and I am trying to get as much input as possible. Thank you!
@@clarkeb3 I completely understand as it's a big investment and a lot of time to switch over and learn the operation of a new tool. I had a home built very large sliding table that I built and used for 25 years. It worked well and cut accurately so it was had for me to finally make the change.
I have had 2 Howard Leight sets with just a radio function, not too expensive but they developed problems after 2 and 4 years. Now I have one from Hellberg with bluetooth, so I can listen to my pc while working. It's holding up well so far but it's only been 2 years.
Practically never, but when I take wood from the bags to burn, then I lay aside anything that isn't solid wood, including plywood. And bring those to a recycling center. I don't burn anything with glue, paint or a coating. It smells like toxic fumes in my shop then.
Nope, those are what we call "big bags" it's easy to get used ones from farmers or construction companies. Materials or feed often are delivered in these and in case of animal feed they can't be reused so they give them away.
What you see is mostly sapwood from oak, the light colored edge near the bark. Or the core of the trees, you can't use that in furniture so you have to cut it out.
To me it looks like 100% use of wood, nothing goes to waste :) In my area they cut down good sized Oak, Birch, Alder and use them directly to firewood. This is better. TR
It's for the built in radio, it allows me to keep listening to the radio while working. I always have a radio on in the shop, but I turn it off when I'm filming, otherwise my videos get copyright claims for the music...
I have the same saw and I'm thinking about doing all ripping to the left of the blade. I'm thinking it might be the way to go. I'm getting the extra rear support and ruler stop from Felder, hope it works out.
@@tundrawhisperer4821 Well I'm not sure yet as I'm just setting up my saw but I did order this addition. I like the idea of having both options. I think it's nice to have some added support when ripping 4x8' sheet goods also. I'm making my own hold down clamps for the slider. They are nice to have. There is a video here so you can get an idea how it works. Some of the Felder website seems to be down at the moment so link may not work. us.feldershop.com/en-US/en-US/en-US/en-US/Sawing/Accessories/Fence-accessories/X-Roll-Rip-fence.html

très très bonne idée, je pense que je vais adopter ta solution dans mon futur atelier!!! merci
très brillant, très bon sens de l'organisation et aussi dans tout l'atelier
Timothy thinks of everything, and has everything...
Thanks for sharing, I may build something like that to my hammer.
Must say that you are incredibly talented
op I am going to implement that on my saw not sure if I will use the big bag tough
When it's full you need a forklift to get it out, but with a bag you wouldn't need to empty the bin entirely before being able to lift the bag out. I didn't use a bag on my first saw and I would just empty the top of the bin out of lazyness. So it was constantly full.
Timothy Wilmots, Oh yes Timothy, you are so lazy...🤦🏻♂️
Nice yob man..I made something simular for my panel saw.
big box with wheels.
Good Luck and Green from Slovenia
Great idea ...efficient use of scrap and otherwise useless cut offs..!
Love your shop!!

I'm sorry it took so long!
Fucking bright ideas.... my hat off to you Brother...:-))))))
Does your Felder have the 31" rip fence or the 49"? And is this the 1300mm or the 1500mm outrigger fence? thank you
I have the shorter rip fence, but the wide 1500mm table.

Did you ever buy a saw? Curious what your got?
Life got in the way and I'm going to stay with my professional cabinet saw for now.

Good work! :)
Hey. Do you ever work with coated chipboard? How do you manage scraps from those?
Practically never, but when I take wood from the bags to burn, then I lay aside anything that isn't solid wood, including plywood. And bring those to a recycling center. I don't burn anything with glue, paint or a coating. It smells like toxic fumes in my shop then.

Thanks.
A good idea. Tremendous.
How much would a table saw like that cost?
depending on the options somewhere between 6 and 10K €, this is very mid range, you have panel saws that cost 30K as well.
....seems like you're scraping plenty of usable wood?
What you see is mostly sapwood from oak, the light colored edge near the bark. Or the core of the trees, you can't use that in furniture so you have to cut it out.
To me it looks like 100% use of wood, nothing goes to waste :)

What is that antenna sticking out of your headset silencers?
It's for the built in radio, it allows me to keep listening to the radio while working. I always have a radio on in the shop, but I turn it off when I'm filming, otherwise my videos get copyright claims for the music...
Timothy Wilmots Oh thanks!
Thats a great idea!
Very Clever.
Brilliant!
Are you hiring??? This place is awesome.
You should never even need to reach on the right side of the blade - ever. Get eccentric clamp!
I have the same saw and I'm thinking about doing all ripping to the left of the blade. I'm thinking it might be the way to go. I'm getting the extra rear support and ruler stop from Felder, hope it works out.
Are you saying to always clamp to the sliding table and never use the rip fence to push material through on these types of saws? Thx
