    I started watching this thinking that nearly an hour might be overlong with lots of boring bits. Somehow just short of an hour vanished in what seemed like 5 minutes. Like someone else has commented I’m also a newbie, completely TH-cam taught thus far, so obviously there’s some major gaps in my education and this video filled all the table saw ones. Thank you very much for uploading it.

    I can't believe my luck finding this video. The table saw used in this video is the exact same model that I own. I bought it 30 years ago and because I had to work for a living, I never had a chance to build the workshop that I wanted. I recently retired and cleaned up my old table saw, added a nice band saw, jointer and other cool tools. This is the only video that I've seen that gives detailed instructions specific to my saw. Thank you so much for posting it.

    I have to thank you ever so much this video Kelly. You have many very good tips on using and setting up your table saw. My saw is a vintage Delta/Milwaukee 1939-1940's combination 10 inch moving table saw and 6 inch jointer that I restored. The issue I always had was with the fence. You nailed it! My fence is nearly identical to the one you showed and I would experience the burning and saw marks on some pieces and it was due to the fact that sometimes when I locked it down the back of the fence would move and this tow in would cause me grief! Thanks for pointing that out so I can make the proper adjustment in locking it down from now on. Also the tip on removing the slop in my miter gauge by using a punch perfected my fit! Another great tip was making a cut and taking the cut piece and rotating it to see if it matches perfectly with the other to show how square the blade is to the fence or miter. Thanks again I really appreciate it. Cheers!

    Holy slotted wood screws! This has to be an ‘80s production. Still a gold standard.

    That's a whole lot of knowledge packed into less than an hour! I'm a novice who appreciates the time spent on education

      Hi Terry, It is a good video, but it is from the 1980's. A lot has changed since then, some good some bad. The Delta Contractor saw used in this is no longer available. To get a saw of that quality you'll need to get a Powermatic or a Saw Stop. The blade guards are much improved since then and so have the blades. Forrest, Ridge Carbide, and Freud are good choices. Working with wood can be a lot of fun and rewarding. I hope you do well. Gold 1792

    Even though this video is from 1993, all of the information is absolutely valid and true today, as it was then.
    I have nearly 5 decades of woodworking experience, and most of what is covered in this video is old hat to me.
    But for someone less experienced, it would be worth downloading for their personal reference library.

    Glad to see you talk about body, arm, and hand position; few table saw videos do. No safety apparatus will compensate for bad body positioning!

    Best training video I've ever seen. Brings back a lot of memories of high school shop and carpentry trade school from the '70s. He is the real deal though.

    This is good enough to keep in my favorites - Nothing that I haven't already seen but I quite like the order and attention to detail that this Kelly Mehler chap follows in his presentation. I also like his safety contraptions as well.

    I learned quite a bit here, especially using the various stops on the cross cut sled for repeatable pieces. Thanks for posting.

    Love the do as I say, not as I do. Safety crap talk, yet no guards on your 3 hp original saw.

    The best thing I’ve found for full size sheet goods is rather than try to manage them by yourself on a table saw, I cut them into manageable pieces using my Trac Saw guide

    Yes BUT having good tools DOES help to a point!! I bought a "name brand" table saw used for $50 and soon realized it was missing a few things, like a miter gauge, push sticks, and a decent blade. I replaced the blade and the miter gauge, and made a couple of different push sticks!! Ok sure it worked "OK", BUT for months I began examining my cuts which always seemed to be "off" and nothing was ever completely "square" on that table saw ever either!!! It was then I realized what my problem was, as the rip fence was severely damaged prior to my purchasing it. And though for the next few years I learned to work around the problem one day last year at Home Depot's website they had a Ryobi Table Saw for just $175 that was portable and small (my shop is tiny) and came complete with new everything!! All I can now say is "WHAT A FREAKIN' DIFFERENCE!!!" going from a beat up used saw to a brand new saw!! My cuts now are "Dead Balls Accurate" (My Cousin Vinny) and every cut I make is so amazingly square I don't know how I went the past 15 years dealing with the old beat up table saw I had!!!! Beside the one thing my other saw was missing was a stand as well, so it is AWESOME to not have to use a saw that is literally laying on the ground or having to strap it down to a small portable work bench both which were really getting to be a major pain as well too!! And having a QUALITY new saw makes my life 20 times more simple, then having to "work around" the problems I had in the past!!! And lastly I have given up on buying used tools anymore!! After all it seems like people who DO NOT KNOW HOW TO USE THEM, beat the tar out of them and then once they are fed up breaking their stuff into garbage they sell it cheap yet be it completely destroyed and worthless to the next guy....ME!!! So having a good tool to start out with DOES make a huge difference in the work you are able to do with it!!! And to add to this comment too, I could have just replaced the rip fence sure....but for the cost of a $300 rip fence to the cost of a brand new undamaged saw of just $175....it made more sense to buy a brand new saw!!!

    My only concern with the fence fanned out a bit at the end is remembering should you switch the fence to the opposite side of the blade.

    i have a similar style table saw, i wonder where i could find a splitter similar to the one in the video

    Does anyone know the sources of the safety equipment he shows, the blade guard and the riving edge?

    I'm definitely not a Millennial at 57 years old, however, save a lot of time over the month or two that you're setting the fence and buy an Incra fence and do away with all the measuring and driving yourself nuts.

      If you have headphones on, there is audio only in one ear. That would drive me nuts. I'm sure the content is great though!
