Shop Safety:
In some of my videos I will share my experiences regarding shop safety. This is based on my knowledge and understanding, however ultimately you are responsible for your own safety so you will need to determine how to properly operate equipment in your shop to maintain your safety. You may want to consider taking some woodworking classes at your local college or craft center. Some Woodcraft stores around the US also offer classes on woodworking. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
I purchased the shark guard after I had a kickback incident. Luckily I wasn’t hurt but it scared the bejesus out of me. The shark guard has been the best addition to my old shop Fox. I’m still very cautious when making cuts but I have a little peace of mind knowing I have that riving knife for added protection. I really wish I could afford a saw stop.
Kickback can be very scary. I’m glad you weren’t hurt. I feel the same way about having the Shark Guard. I’m with you that I would love to be able to buy a Saw Stop. Thanks for your comment.
Great Stuff, I definetly want to add a shark guard to my old unisaw down the line!
I’m confident you won’t regret it! Thanks for your feedback 😊
Each video, I learn more and more valuable things. Thanks, Ken!
I’m glad you enjoyed it!
I bought my Jessem TS Stock Guides several years ago on-sale for $120 at Woodcraft. I see they are now close to $300- I don't think I would pay that much! I was surprised at how much extra effort is required to push the board past the blade with the stock guides engaged.
You got a great deal when you bought your JessEm Stock Guides! Yes, you are right it does take more effort to push your work piece using the stock guides, but I really like how they keep the work piece against the fence. Thanks for your comment😊
I had not used the blade guards on the two table saws I have owned over 40 years for reasons similar to what you describe, but as I did more research I discovered that most of folks that lost fingers while cutting did not push their hand into the blade… the board being cut kicked back and pushed their hand into the blade. Since the splitter on my older Craftsman saw was part of the guard and since I was not using the guard, I was a prime candidate for a bad day. I think I paid about $225 (used) for my current saw which is a wonderful older heavy duty well made Craftsman saw. I bought a Shark Guard for my older Craftsman saw, I think it cost me $175 including shipping, but I don’t regret it a bit. It is a really nice guard and helps keep all my fingers where they belong. One other improvement I made to my older saw was to replace the cast pulleys on the motor and blade axel with machined pulleys from In-Line Industries. I think the two machined pulleys cost about $35 including shipping, and like they claimed, the saw runs with so little vibration you can’t stand a nickel on edge on the saw table and the nickel will not fall over
I’m glad you had a similar positive experience installing the Shark Guard on your table saw and I totally agree with you it’s well worth the investment to protect your fingers. I also like your other upgrade to your table saw. Thanks for your comment!
Well done Ken!!! Great and informative video as always.
Hi Randy, thanks very much for your feedback! Did you like the push stick holder?
This was a great video. I need to get the Shark Guard for my saw. Are you happy with the smaller dust collection port or do you think that the 4” would have been better? Thanks!
Thanks for the feedback! My logic going for the smaller diameter hose on the blade guard was since my main dust collector is connected to the bottom of the saw, pulling down the sawdust, I thought the blade guard dust collection would be for the residual dust the main collector missed. Plus, I didn’t want a large overhead hose to deal with over the saw. I don’t think you can go wrong with either size for your application. BTW, I found the people at SharkGuard to be extremely helpful. They are a small business and the really care about their customers😊
Thanks for getting back with me. I was thinking similarly and appreciate the validation
@@johndesormier8099 Anytime John. Also, I really appreciate your comments
The floating’ feature of the handy caddy might torque some fences off square from the table. I’d let it slide on nylon buttons.
That's a great idea for some fences. Thanks for the comment.
Good vid. What kind of dust collector do you have hooked to you Shark Guard?
I have a Festool dust extractor under the left side of the table saw. It has the Bluetooth technology so I can turn it on with a button on the end of the hose. The boom arm allows me to also use the same hose for the Shark Guard and for when I’m using my portable sanders on the out feed table. Thanks for the comment!
