Great review Shaun. I decided against this saw because of a lack of available information in the UK. If I'd have seen this video before buying my new saw I may well have gone for it. Lumberjack would do well to get these in to the hands of a few TH-camrs I think
Glad it was helpful! I agree, I tried to reach out to them before i pulled the trigger on purchasing but had a couple of projects approaching and had already sold the old saw.
Really good review. Straight to the point. If the fence is repeatedly square and stable with square mitre slots, I will be in on this. It's very disappointing to see so many reviews of saws costing a grand and well above with comments about fences and mitre slots not being square. The whole point of a table saw is to make repeated, square cuts.
Looks great Shaun I’m getting one but have no idea on blades as I’m a beginner so have no clue what are good blades and what are bad and like you I’m after a dadio blade set I’ll have to try and research some more
Thanks for a great review and for ending my quest for a good table saw. I hadn't heard of this one until I saw your review. The storage points on the outside speak volumes about the thought that's gone into the product and they'll save me having to add hangers onto a SIP, Charnwood or Axminster saw, which I'd assumed were my best choices until you talked me straight into one of these about five minutes ago. Cheers!
I have been looking for a new table saw for the last couple of months. I think this looks right for me. One question, now you have had it 4 months, are you still happy, any comments would be interesting.
Shaun how did you get it upright I can’t even move mine it took the wife my son and me 3+ hrs just to get in shed. I was going to take the bed off to make it easier but I couldn’t remove it would you have any suggestions on after I get legs on I can get upright cheers steve 👨🏼🦽
Great review. I live in Canada and have the Rigid version of this saw. Very happy with the saw, had it 6 months now. Total cost here was UKPounds 616. To me that was a bargain. Agree with you about tipping the saw upright is a 2 man job. Tried it myself and dropped it on my fingers. 2 broken fingers later, I got someone else to help me!! I think the fence on yours may be different to the Rigid fence, but I am happy with the Rigid Fence, very stable when locked in position, and has T tracks to add accessories.
Hi Shaun can I ask if you can make a zero clearance plate for the ts 1800 and do you know or reckon that a router could be fitted like the American ones. I’ve got a ts1800 on order. So hopefully soon once everything else gets sorted. Cheers steve👨🏼🦽
I have a couple of Zero clearance inserts, getting ready to make a bunch on my cnc and put on etsy/my web page for order. the side wing accepts a router for sure, i have one in at present for a test before i commit to it.

I bought this saw back in October,I love it. The only issue is that it keeps blowing the 13a fuse in the plug,I’ve been through about forty of them. Has anyone else had this problem? Anyone know how I can fix this? Thanks
@@shaunintheshed Thanks,shaun. I’ve already been in touch with LJ they gave me a new capacitor,I changed it,the original capacitor was blown. Two fuses have blown since Saturday. I’ll speak to I Alex again. Thanks,shaun.
Hi Shaun, nice video thank you! Please can you let me know how the motor is mounted? Does it hang on the cast top or is it mounted to the casing? I’m thinking about buying this without actually seeing in person so I really appreciate your thoughts!
They are currently at £995 and there is a Makers Central 10% discount, there is a woodworking UK over on facebook discount 10% and finally there is the CrossCut podcast they have a 10% ddiscount. www.lumberjacktools.co.uk/product-lumberjack-ts1800-cast-iron-table-saw-1800w-lum00205 So its still a potential £900 saw. Would I still go for it YEP i have no regrets still with the saw.
@@shaunintheshed Thanks. That strange. saw 1099,. yesterday. Either thay keeps changing prices depend on suply-demand basis or its really time for me to visit opthalmology
Hi, any idea if I can get a replacement motor for this saw in the UK? I live in Nigeria, got a ridgid 3650 from Canada, but its motor is rated for 110v/60Hz, while power supplied is rated at 220v/50Hz, like the UK.
Hi Shaun, nice video. I’m wondering how you’re getting on with this saw today? I’m in the market for a new saw and this may be the one. Is the motor an induction motor?
I love it, Oi Oi Captain I have spent the last weekend at the Harrogate Woodworking show demonstrating the saw and its capabilities. I would buy it now straight away. Yes direct drive induction motor and very quiet. if you buy direct fdrom LJ on their website use the cos ShaunShed10 for 10% off.
I have the Master Force saw that is another off shoot of the Rigid saw... I love it and I put a 52” true T-Square style fence... saw cost $500 and I purchased the fence for $40 from a gentleman who upgraded his saw too
Thanks Robert, I love how they create clones of one another, take something thats solid, easily made and duplicate with a different badge on to confuse people. But we all talk and realise whats going on. Nice bargain on the fence though.
How do you find the saw after a few months of using it ? It is lower powered than the Charnwood W650 and slightly more expensive but do you find it struggles with some cuts or hardwoods ? Or is there plenty of power there ? Great video and only the second 1 I have found. Thank you for taking the time to show us all.
Hi Shaun ,, I watched ur video couple of times 😂 love it . Finally I decided to get one , I tried to get 10% discount with ur name but unfortunately it didn’t work 😂, any idea? Many thanks ❤❤
Thanks for the review - came here from Keith's review of his new Axminster AT254SB / AW10BSB2 which was just about to buy upgrading from my kity bestcombi 2000. However i believe the Axminster mitre slot isn't standard depth. Are the slots on the lumberjack standard size?
Nice one Shaun. Congrats on your new purchase. Great vid but would be nice to see the saw and watch it ripping up some wood. Good script but would love to see more of the saw and working. Maybe that’s your next video. Regards Adrian
Thanks Shaun. Really helpful. A couple of questions ... Do you find the motor strong enough for hardwoods? I'm unlikely to cut stock thicker than 50mm. Secondly the speed is really low at 2400rpm. What is the cut quality like after fitting the Freud blade? Dave
I just came here from Keith Brown's channel. Glad I did because I've been looking for this type of saw for a while and this could well be the one. Please keep us updated on how you get on with It.
Go for it! I have one to build for the remaining gardening stuff to get it out the workshop. As its a re-assembly of an old shed it won't be videod. Re the permission just tell her how quiet the house will be.............
Hi Shaun - fantastic review, am about to pull the trigger on this one, needing to upgrade a Makita site saw. Cannot wait to get working with a proper dado stack ... I'm channeling Norm here also :) Could I just ask, this being an 'american' type saw, is the arbour size our standard 30mm ? I too only use Freud blades on all our shop machinery, just curious whether I'd have to get all of them sent from the US or whether our local ones will do too. Many thanks, Peter
Hi Peter, thanks for the comments. the Arbor has a diameter of 5/8" or 15.8 ish mm. I use a reducer ring www.screwfix.com/p/erbauer-30mm-reduction-ring-set-3-pieces/9740x from Screw fix to allow me to use my preferred Freud Blades. www.screwfix.com/p/freud-tct-circular-saw-blade-250-x-30mm-40t/1309f For the Dado its a 5/8 fit specifically.
@@shaunintheshed Many thanks Shaun, and apologies, I realised you actually mentioned the arbour size in the video. I have ordered three Freud blades from the US as I'm weary of reducer rings generally, the 80T super fine, 50T general purpose and 30T glue-line rip one. We generally avoid blade reducers in the shop. However, looks like you've got good experience with them. We have more than a few 30mm bore freud blades that would fit this saw. I will unpack and build the saw tomorrow, tricky as my shop is about 50 concrete stairs down from street level where the saw is sitting ATM (drive). Are you still happy with the kit ? Thanks, Peter
@@summerhillmusicfactory4216 Yeah its been solid so far. The use of it has slowed down due to some non shop time for a few weeks. Had my thicknesser dropped on the drive as i wasn't at home , had to move that solo.
@@shaunintheshed Nice one, what thicknesser was that ? I recently re-purchased a Makita portable one, the old one lasted over 10 years. Great tool and only 32quid for set of blades. To safe space we use a planing jig when working lumber.
@@summerhillmusicfactory4216 I had a Triton Thicknessor but it was always under my feet and needed to be moved onto a bench all the time, i thought of making a stand for it but kept putting it off. So sold it and brought the www.lumberjacktools.co.uk/product-lumberjack-pt305-12-inch-planer-thicknesser-lum00207 thicknesser/planer instead so i can use it in both functions.
Cracking review Shaun. Seen the saw on KBs channel and just recently on sale on the Yandles site. Great features to upgrade my first tablesaw the 10inch Evolution contractor saw, which doesn't have a totally flat top. It does have pull out extension wings, great in single garage, with just over 600mm to right of blade up to the fence. Whats the max to fence on the right of the blade for the TS1800? Just discovered your channel, subbed and will watch your back catalogue.
Hi Shaun, Fantastic review. I will be buying one myself based on your review. its currently around £850 to £900 right now, you said you had a discount code from woodworking uk, but i cant find one, Do you have a link to that code? Thank you
Great review, and i have subbed... Shame you didn't include using it but i am being finicky... That looks a beast of a saw. To big for my shop so i will be sticking with my DW745. But like Keith says Lumberjack are missing a trick not putting it in the hands of some TH-camrs... Looking forward to watching more of your Vids
Go for it! I had been hesitating for ages and decided I needed a reason to make me buy one so I sold the older saw to encourage me to purchase something new.
Awesome review buddy, glad your happy with it. Price isn’t too bad. My dewalt was close to £500 so only a little more for what seems like a brilliant bit of kit. Especially because you can have a dado stack on it. Very jealous.
Totally agree, looking at the price of the contracters saws I decided to forgo the haribo habit for a month to compensate for the extra spending. Look its not Orange so nothing to be jealous over
Good review and the saw looks up to the mark. Not sure if Keith Brown had the potential for emulating Norm in his decision making matrix - but that would have swung it. However Lumberjack are not the easiest company to communicate with - I get the impression they area box shifting company - in comparison to Axminster ‘who know their stuff’. Subscribed.😀👍
I would like to see this saw in the french market :'( Unfortunately, we don't have access to this type of table saw in Europe (american style cast iron TS).
I do indeed. I think when i purchased it it was under valued in the market at the time. LJ have a 20% discount at this point and regularly have a 10% offer you can uitilise.
Thanks Fletch This was the one that I purchased Unfortunately it had to be sourced from the US www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NEW-FREUD-SD208S-PRO-DADO-TITANIUM-CARBIDE-8-SAW-BLADE-KIT-8-SET-NEW-IN-CASE/132511129129?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2648
Hi Sean I'm thinking of purchasing this after I watched yours and another reviewer just one question I. Also thinking of getting this item is it compatible with this saw www.mikefarrington.com/dt-disc/double-taper-sanding-disc
I believe it fits these specs, as it has a 5/8 arbor Product notes: 10” outer diameter, 5/8” arbor, and 7/16” thick at the arbor. Requires that the saw arbor tilt 2 degrees towards the fence. Works on both left and right tilt saws, download the instructions for more information. Please inquire if your arbor is something other than 5/8”.
Would have been nice if you actually reviewed the important aspects, such as accuracy of the fence, mitre gauge, height angle etc, rather than the gimicky unimportant stuff.
I will be following up with the day to day use ove rthe next video or 2 to see how it performs Out the box the fence once attached was by default square, but has adjusting grub screws. The mitre slot i haven't checked it as yet, other then its different for the actual traack frmo my old saw so i'm in the process of remaking my jigs. WIth all the saws i use the blade angle guide as an approximation and have a digitual gauge to confirm in relation the the saw bed. All points taken on board though and will mention them in my follow up video. Shaun
Interesting review, but I was getting so wound up by the music, I stopped listening. I'm not sure what the logic is here - you are putting out a lot of information in 10 minutes, but you continually distract the viewer with dodgy lift music. This is , of course my opinion, and I see the value of bland music whilst watching machining, perhaps, or when there is no dialogue. This mix implies you are not confident in what you have to say, and so sugar the pill. There is no need - you have interesting things to tell us. Maybe You tube should install a STFU button so dialogue continues, but lift music gets left in the basement....
thanks Richard, sorry re the sound bed, i have it set to 30% of my voice volume. Most of my talking to camera sections are shorter and it doesn't affect them, as this was a lot of coal to camera i didn't think it would be any different. I will take it into consideration for any future videos such as this. Re the saw though no sugar pills, it really is solid and feels great. 😀
@@shaunintheshed thanks for the reply. I appreciate that one man's meat, etc. So please take my comments as my personal take, and not as criticism. I see on their website that they are now "fully CE approved" I wonder if that means no more dado stacks ? You may well be the last of the Norm Abrams !!
If u have a review like this one u would never buy it xD Where is some cuts? Hiw is running? How well this is? Do a normal day usage of it not just... bla bla yyyyyyyy bla bla yyyyy

Nice review. Did you have any problems with the extension tables being slightly longer than the main table

Yes it will thanks, glad you enjoyed.
Great review. I live in Canada and have the Rigid version of this saw. Very happy with the saw, had it 6 months now. Total cost here was UKPounds 616. To me that was a bargain. Agree with you about tipping the saw upright is a 2 man job. Tried it myself and dropped it on my fingers. 2 broken fingers later, I got someone else to help me!!

Correction. Cost was CAN$596 with a 10% discount and then 15% sales tax -CAN$616 = UKPounds 360. Bargain.
its heavier then it looks. I could have picked it up but wanted to pla it safe.

Hi Shaun, Fantastic review. I will be buying one myself based on your review. its currently around £850 to £900 right now, you said you had a discount code from woodworking uk, but i cant find one, Do you have a link to that code? Thank you
Great to hear. Message me on my Facebook page same shaunintheshed and I will direct you to a wwuk post about it
Great review, and i have subbed... Shame you didn't include using it but i am being finicky... That looks a beast of a saw. To big for my shop so i will be sticking with my DW745. But like Keith says Lumberjack are missing a trick not putting it in the hands of some TH-camrs... Looking forward to watching more of your Vids
Thanks Paul. Looking forward to making a mess of more saw dust with it.
Nice one mate, would love to have a beast like that. Maybe one day 🤔
Go for it! I had been hesitating for ages and decided I needed a reason to make me buy one so I sold the older saw to encourage me to purchase something new.
Awesome review buddy, glad your happy with it. Price isn’t too bad. My dewalt was close to £500 so only a little more for what seems like a brilliant bit of kit. Especially because you can have a dado stack on it. Very jealous.
Totally agree, looking at the price of the contracters saws I decided to forgo the haribo habit for a month to compensate for the extra spending. Look its not Orange so nothing to be jealous over
Good review and the saw looks up to the mark. Not sure if Keith Brown had the potential for emulating Norm in his decision making matrix - but that would have swung it. However Lumberjack are not the easiest company to communicate with - I get the impression they area box shifting company - in comparison to Axminster ‘who know their stuff’. Subscribed.😀👍
i have managed to have several chats with them before and after purhcasing. Norm trumps spreadsheets lol
I would like to see this saw in the french market :'( Unfortunately, we don't have access to this type of table saw in Europe (american style cast iron TS).
booo not fair for you . I must say i have been looking at older saws until this came along.
You paid £750 and now on 1st January 2022 it.s £1000. Do you recon it.s still worth it?
I do indeed. I think when i purchased it it was under valued in the market at the time. LJ have a 20% discount at this point and regularly have a 10% offer you can uitilise.
@@shaunintheshed cheers!
Awesome video mate purchased mine after watching this 👍 do you have a link for the dado blade that will fit this saw?
Thanks Fletch
This was the one that I purchased
Unfortunately it had to be sourced from the US

Thanks for reply shaun, does an 8" dado stack work safely on 10" table saw?
@@fletch989 i asked the same questions and was assured yes. i have a couple of friends that have done the same and works fine.

New video.....🥳💃💃🥳 "ta ra" 🤣😂
and the first comment, thanks

i like that thought 😀
Hi Sean I'm thinking of purchasing this after I watched yours and another reviewer just one question I. Also thinking of getting this item is it compatible with this saw www.mikefarrington.com/dt-disc/double-taper-sanding-disc
I believe it fits these specs, as it has a 5/8 arbor
Product notes:
10” outer diameter, 5/8” arbor, and 7/16” thick at the arbor. Requires that the saw arbor tilt 2 degrees towards the fence. Works on both left and right tilt saws, download the instructions for more information. Please inquire if your arbor is something other than 5/8”.
@@shaunintheshed cheers a mill 👍
Would have been nice if you actually reviewed the important aspects, such as accuracy of the fence, mitre gauge, height angle etc, rather than the gimicky unimportant stuff.
I will be following up with the day to day use ove rthe next video or 2 to see how it performs Out the box the fence once attached was by default square, but has adjusting grub screws. The mitre slot i haven't checked it as yet, other then its different for the actual traack frmo my old saw so i'm in the process of remaking my jigs.
WIth all the saws i use the blade angle guide as an approximation and have a digitual gauge to confirm in relation the the saw bed.
All points taken on board though and will mention them in my follow up video.
Shaun

be sure to watch the 6 month review
Interesting review, but I was getting so wound up by the music, I stopped listening. I'm not sure what the logic is here - you are putting out a lot of information in 10 minutes, but you continually distract the viewer with dodgy lift music. This is , of course my opinion, and I see the value of bland music whilst watching machining, perhaps, or when there is no dialogue. This mix implies you are not confident in what you have to say, and so sugar the pill. There is no need - you have interesting things to tell us. Maybe You tube should install a STFU button so dialogue continues, but lift music gets left in the basement....
thanks Richard, sorry re the sound bed, i have it set to 30% of my voice volume. Most of my talking to camera sections are shorter and it doesn't affect them, as this was a lot of coal to camera i didn't think it would be any different. I will take it into consideration for any future videos such as this.
Re the saw though no sugar pills, it really is solid and feels great. 😀
@@shaunintheshed thanks for the reply. I appreciate that one man's meat, etc. So please take my comments as my personal take, and not as criticism. I see on their website that they are now "fully CE approved" I wonder if that means no more dado stacks ? You may well be the last of the Norm Abrams !!
If u have a review like this one u would never buy it xD
Where is some cuts? Hiw is running? How well this is? Do a normal day usage of it not just... bla bla yyyyyyyy bla bla yyyyy
