MORE DETAILS: • Homemade Table Saw
My new homemade table saw.
I built it because I wanted a new, better saw and the big one is still not ready to go. I tried to keep it cheap and easy and use the least amount of million dollar power tools possible.
The circular saw is a bosch gks 66 ce and has since then been swapped out for a makita 5903 because it's more powerful and allows for more depth of cut.
I have seen a lot of people build their own table saws, but I have never seen anyone build one that is as nice as this one. Great job!
Glad you liked it :)
+Cosmas B its a great table i just didn't get the part where you made the mechanism of the fence slide , could you explain that
+Cosmas B That was very nicely, neatly and skillfully done. Wonderfull.

In the last week I have downloaded about 10 you tube videos on building a table saw and yours is by far the best build I have seen, just brilliant.
Amazing! What you did in 8 minutes, people could not do in half hour videos.
Neat clean and easy. Thanks a lot. 👍❤
Wonderful! I've looked at a lot of home built table saws, but this one rocks! I especially like the fence, never seen one so professionally built!
That is one of the best builds I have seen on TH-cam .. it's actually achievable for the "average joe". Thanks for posting it.
I enjoy all of your videos because it shows options and ingenuity. I did some rough calculations regarding the cost of plywood and a saw to dedicate and you are very close to the cost of a portable pre-made saw. Neverthe less making things yourself that actually work has a whole different value. Getting things dead square is likely the biggest challenge.
+David Clink A saw for 100€ is shit and by far not as good as this one. I tried it, these things are horrible.
Brilliant out-of-the-box thinking; a basic design that is simple and just works. This can be added to as needs dictate. I like Cosma's work because it breaks the conditioning that you have to buy ready made stuff; that it has to be 'professionally' made to be any good. Thanks for posting.
It is a really smart little saw. The fence holding mechanism is brilliant.
In my opinion this is the BEST DIY table saw I have seen on TH-cam, bar none!
Nice piece of kit Cosmos
There is no greater satisfaction than creating something useful with your own skills !
Again you made an impressive piece of equipment that doesn't cost half an arm + an eye to build. What can I say...? SUBSCRIBED..!
Terrific job. I don't have a need for another table saw but I can see where someone who does could follow what you did and build their own. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful.... And your methods.. Impressive.. For example making the box for the base and then removing excess.. That machine is now a Pro Machine...
Nothing short of genius!!! Its usually so hard to follow along with other peoples how to videos. This guy has his skill mastered.
Cosmas: thanks for your explanation. If this video I had had more or less a year ago, he had not bought a circular saw (a disaster); but since it's too late for regrets, with your advice I will try to improve what I have. A hug and have a good 2015
So ive watched many videos today and i have to say your table saw has come on top with simplicity and quality rolled into one (Y) well done and thanks for sharing!!
Glad you liked it ;)
Your work are so nice again. How can you make all works so nice,compact, amazing and smooth all the time. God bless you 🙏🙏👏
My hat is off to you sir, that is one nice table saw. It's been a long time now that I wish to build my own table saw.
The best video I've seen regarding the home built table saw, your attention to detail in outstanding!
I've been trying to find a way to mount the circular saw without drilling the base... thanks for the idea...nice and simple...love it
That is one very nice table saw, you are a craftsman without a doubt, thank you for posting.
I love the precision and ingenuity that went into this build - well done.
On the one hand, you have the pleasure of accomplishment. On the other hand, I’m in a comfortable retirement so that if I really needed an extra table saw, I’d just go buy it.
Which ever works for you!
I could also just go and buy one but that would be really boring and wouldn't make a good video either.
Cosmas B LOL !
The best I have seen till date. congrats man. In fact I have downloaded your video to view it in detail as an owner's manual to build my own. Thanks a lot and keep up the good work. I really really really really really really liked it a lot.
Incredible. Kudos on the tightening mechanism... ingenious.
Nice. This will probably be my first project when I get a router.
well done mate , a no nonsense video , that shows whats important. A nice easy to watch piece of work. !! I am going to attempt this build. Like some of your other comments , I have watched many table saw vids, but yours rocks !! keep em coming please.
Μπράβο ρε Κοσμά ! επαγγελματική δουλειά ! και οτι κανει κάποιος με τα χεράκια του το χαίρεται και πιο πολύ αλλά και βγαίνει πιο γερό. Μπράβο και πάλι
That is one of the best table saw builds I have seen on youtube, and believe me I have seen many. It looks and works better than my SIP table saw that I wasted some money on buying, the rip fence was garbage on it and I have been looking at rip fences and saw yours. Could you possibly send me a plan of how you made that rip fence, if theres one available? it would save me taking my laptop to my shed!
Thanks again for a great build and video.
Barry from England.
Glad you like it! I didn't draw any plans.
very entertaining way of showing how to make a table saw. loved the fast actioned hammering. Good fun video
Awesome! I bought a table saw that has a ridiculous fence. I think I'll disassemble it and build something similar to the one you've made. Very impressive job!
Cool! :)
best easy explained table saw ,good simple and clear
Very very nice build ! I wish I even had room in my shop to put up a saw like this. With a few extra things like T-tracks and a few extruded alu frames, this could be a really great equipment.
Wow, honestly i wasnt expecting such a solid build when i first saw it. Its a very nice saw!!
+Sam BA It still works perfectly fine even though my dad really puts it through it's paces :)
Super! Вот она идея для стола с линейкой, сама идея и механизм реализации!!! Автору респект.
very nice craftmanship... the FENCE/LAN looks good... but I do not see any griping/hold-on on the tabeltop opposite side-edge... is that true? Also your video gives good inspiration 👍 and makes one want to make a DIY-tablesaw too.
This is defiantly the best one I've seen on TH-cam so far. Very clever. Thanks.
Well done my friend, it looks like it cuts very accurately as well. I believe that is the hardest part of making your own table saw. I know many woodworkers scoff at the idea of these homemade tables, but they can be just as good or better than production units when done properly. Kudos to you, and happy woodworking :)
Very sleek, very clean design. I love this build. You have a great talent for building, as well as making your videos. This was a great experience, your voice is clear and your thoughts were well conveyed. Also..nice music, so rare in these videos, thank you!
I've watched many videos building table saw but this' GREAT !!!!!!! 5 STARS
Thanks :)
agree with you.
your fabrication ideas are awesome.I have a couple of question...:
1. what is that blue nut or driver on the nose of your screwdriver?
2. when installing dowels,I thought that you have to drill the holes first on one side,mark the other side,drill holes again and then install the dowels.in this case it is very difficult to drill perpendicular holes,without a drill giude (?)
It is a bit holdr that locks the driver bit in place. The blue thing is the release.
Yes that would be difficult and that's why I didn't do it.
Very impressive, I have been wanting a table saw but there's no point getting a crappy one and I couldn't justify spending the best part of £1000. How much did the saw itself set you back?
Great share, thanks very much.
That is really amazing. I was only thinking today how bad my table saw is, I've had to modify it so much I may as well of just built one like you did.
Nice job
Man dieses mal kann ich wegen safety issues echt nicht meckern. Wirklich exzellente Arbeit und die ganzen kleinen sicherheits Vorkehrungen machen die Säge um so besser. 👍
haha na da bin ich ja froh :D
Great job. You can tell you took your time on this one. Looks good and functions well too.
Nice job. What sort of rip saw is that an how old is it? It doesn't look like it uses a swing table, but instead uses a straight up and down blade height adjustment, did I get that right? I once used an old porter cable like that. But I am curious the manufacturer of that tool. Thanks.

Nice work. You used a few techniques that I liked. The one I like most was the way you used your router fixed on your table and turned it as a router table (up side down). But you skipped a lot of steps specially on the fence. Well done.
Love it! Glad to see a rithing knife.
Great Great Great. You gave me some excellent ideas. some questions: what is the circular saw you used, and is there a way to adjust the saw height and tilt without going under the table?
Very nicely done. The finish is super.
¡Congratulations and Thank you VM.
Your table saw is very nice! I have a router Skill (1100 W) and a circular Saw 7 1/4, but up to now, I don't know how to use them very well, but in the future I would like so much make a table saw like yours. Good luck and a big hello from Cordoba Argentina!
Nice job.
Well impressed. Looks like I'll be busy this weekend.
Thanks
the best table saw i have seen on youtube.... and i saw a lot!!!!!...
at the end i bought a makita table saw.... which is very disappointing... yours look much better....
good job!!!!!!
Dank Comas , hatte nicht das ganze Video gesehen, aber ich sah es, Ihre Videos groß sind , sehr lehrreich , sehr praktisch, ich gratuliere Ihnen für das, was Sie tun , Grüße aus Nicaragua
Great design and good build. Thanks
thanks forharing. That is not a bad sircular saw.
The box cutout seemed wasteful at first, but when i think about it, it is very clever.
I also like festool color theme.
Great build, I really liked the way the hardware for the fence assembly came together.

Superb Build !! Very nicely built and explained !
One of the best DIY on a table saw!
Best fence lock in TH-cam! 👍 excellent!
Fantastic ingenuity! Nice job.
You make it look so easy...very impressive table saw ..thanks for the insight..
Very nice build, cheap and effective!
I agree with J. Jones. Awesome work. Loved your fence. Gonna build one myself now using your technique. Thanks!
Cool! Thanks!
Nicely done. I may have to give this a try.
Best home made table saw I have seen !
looks professionally done - very nice!
Great Job weldone :) this is not cheap- but the ideas and creativity shown in this project is priceless. things can be bought cheaper, Not the self satisfaction. :)
Wonderful work and Nicely done.
True genius. Now I'm thinking that I don't have to put up with my sorry ass Ryobi BT3000 table saw any more. Great work and thanks for sharing!
very nice build. Lots of tips I can use to make my own. Thanks
Excellent vid. Concise and informative. No nonsense. Well done! Thumb up.
Thanks :)
Hi, great video. How it works since the begining ? Is the blade always perpendicular to the table in both axes ?
Πολυ καλη δουλεια Κοσμα Β, αν δεν εισαι Ελληνας τι να πω....Very good and clever modifications also great video.
Sei stato chiaro anche per me che non parlo l' inglese. un grazie dall' Italia, bravo
Very nice and useful video - I have the exact hobby as yours - will make such a table soon! Thankssss
Think i will have to redo my home made table saw soon after getting a drive to do it from watching this.
That is very fine clever work. You must be proud.
I'm building one very similar today. I wasnt going to put a lot of work in it cause its just temporary and I have no where to put it once the work is done. Your is very pretty though.
Nice and smooth....simply great!
I think I will use some of your ideas in mine. The nail for the insert plate was a nice solution.
Gördüğüm kadar 18 mm MDF parçasından yaptınız. Motor için açtığınız alt ve üst kesiminizden sonra MDF esneme yaptımı? (Motor ağırlığı) teşekkür ederim
Amazing work. Actually, you inspired me to build my own following your design. The thing is, my crappy circular saw does not have a riving knife and i would like to build some kind of a protection thing. Do you have any suggestions? Would it work if i make some DIY riving knife and glue it or screw it directly on a zero clearance insert? Thank You for the inspiration!
There are little riving knive like things that attach to the insert. You may wanna check out the woodpeckers channel he uses them and I think he also explains where to get them.
The problem is that with a crappy circular saw it will not work anyways. For an applycation like this you'd need a really sturdy one to keep the motor's weight from distorting the entire thing and throwing the blade angle off all the time.
Cosmas B Exactly the problem I had. Although, I have managed to "solve" it somehow. About the riving knives, i found those little micro jig splitters. Maybe that will help. My table saw is like the first one you made but the fence is like the second one you made. My version is still far from perfect but it amazes me what I actually managed to cut with it. So, thanks again.
Thanks! I was looking for a full inverted circular saw to table saw video. How are you tilting or plunging the blade?
I've watch a lot of DIY table saw videos yours is one of the best!
i was thinking of the safeest way to go about building my own table saw as i want to use my old circuler, nice & for the inspiration
Cool :)
Your video gave me a good idea, what I can do to make a table for myself.
Thank You very much!
What's the preferable thickness for table top? I have 35mm melamine bench board... Is that too thick? I can also take thickness to 10mm with router for attaching the skill saw base on back of melamine board. But not sure if 10mm is enough to hold the weight of my saw...
Hello. You missed placing the fin that goes behind the saw blade to avoid kickbacks. Do you have any idea how to do it? Greetings from Argentina.
This is a really nice build.
Very nice job! Which circular saw model did you use for the project? I'm going to make my own, but I would like to use a model with a riving knife like your....thanks!
You are so darn intellegent! I just bought a used table saw, the guide is missing. I see I could make one like you did! Good Video!
I like it but i have always found that the depth of cut is very restricting from a 9"1/4 inch.
Have you got a solution for this?
( say if you need to cross cut a piece 4"*4" cleanly)
Nice work! Particularly like the fence mechanism. With the fence only clamped at one end, is there any movement in the fence as the workpiece passes the blade?
You have to really push hard to get some tiny movement. Not something that would happen under the conditions of every day use.
Great video Cosmas! And a really good build. Thanks for this as I have been thinking of building my own table saw for some time - but not sure how best to go about it. your way seems simple and clear. Bought table saw's never seem to be up to the job I am finding.
very nice would make a good light saw for a construction site work where you often need a table saw to do some rip cuts.
great video, good project congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!Greetings from Colombia.
+Obed Sanabria Glad you liked it!
everything is great just one question,
why did you cut that hole in the middle of the table, then put the insert in the end to cover that same hole ?
wouldn't it be easier to just keep the original table top instead of cutting it there ?
you already used the router to cut half way deep , why not keep it like that ?
If I want to make a cut with the blade tilted I need another insert because that would really widen the slot (because the hinge point is not in plain with the table top but underneath it).
How would you change the angle of the blade on a skill saw?
Nvm I see
losen knob, change angle, tighten knob.
I love this! If I didn't have a tablesaw I'd want this.
Wow, I greatly admire your skills. Such dedication. At what age did you begin learning?
What paints are you using? I have always had to use primer and undercoat. It would be good to find and paint I can just paint straight onto the wood.
