That ending sold me. Great project and very clean.
Thank you for the kind words AND hanging in there until the end! Glad you enjoyed my project video!!!
Yes! Now that is a woodworking worthy welding project! The base came out awesome and I liked this threaded nut inserts you used for the casters. That’s gonna be on my to get list!
Came out so so good! And movability is going to pay dividends. Everything from the design, welding and fit/finish was spot on!😊👍

Thank you, Joe, for that high praise! Check into Nutserts (aka: Rivnuts). They're a fantastic tool! Cheap & fast, easy to install and plenty strong or most anything we do. I use mostly 1/4 x 20, but they come in every size you can think of!
Best,
Andrew
Really enjoyed your build video! Thank you for sharing. I don't have any welding experience, but I do have a number of hefty old American iron machines to make mobile. So I'm thinking that perhaps I'll borrow my dad's mig welder and try to learn. The end result you have here sure is tempting to try to replicate. Thanks again.
Do it! Play around with some scraps to get a feel for the movement, then go for it! I see people get nervous like they may mess something up. If you do, who cares. Metal is 100% forgiving. Just cut it out and weld it again--no biggie!
Plus, welds are incredibly strong even if they're not great. So, you have nothing to worry about in terms of strength. Andrew Camarata showed us all that one inch of crummy weld on 1/4" plate will lift a dump truck!
Fyi I built this base with 1.5 x .120"wall square tube. It's rock solid. Wheels are 4" double-locking casters from CasterCity. com. I forget the specific rubber, but they do not flat spot from sitting in one spot.
Mad skills Andrew huge fan of your work! Your tablesaw base is by far the best I've seen on this platform! Looking to attempt this build for my table saw! Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
THANK YOU, Jeff! Feel free to DM me on Instagram for any details or specific questions. Happy to share anything I can to help your build! Any chance you'll be at Makers Camp in NY next month? Would be great to meetup!
If I'm ever on the east coast I would love to meet you in person. But unfortunately I'm on the west coast, So Cal to be exact. Thank you again & absolutely love this community who share their skills & knowledge with others! 🙏
Great work! I wish I had your welding skills to be able to make something like this for my table saw.
Thank you, Eder! You can do it!!! The key is to simply start. My dad welded when I was younger, but I was always scared of it. A few years back I decided to give it a shot. Turns out, it's not that difficult. Now I weld almost everyday and LOVE it! And my teenage daughters have started welding too. Jump in, the water is fine!
Nice work Andrew!!! Definitely a clean, sturdy and useful build. 👍🏼
Thank you, Dustin! I'm excited to finally have it in use. Been thinking of this build for several years now.
Very nice. I've only seen one like it in my whole life with rubber tires and it was a trailer to be taken out to construction sites. And much bigger with a generator, drill press, welding and more.
Thank you!
Nice! Just bought the same saw. I don’t know how difficult it would be to learn to weld, but I’m going to find out! 😂
By the way, I watched the entire video but didn’t see a “bonus gift”! Lol Maybe a free set of plans or instructions with dimensions? Lol😊
@@anthonygianacopoulos9918 The "Surprise Ending" is the completed cabinet.
Learning to weld is not hard. @weld.com here has basically their college program in short videos. Now, learning to weld WELL is hard and takes 1,000s hours practice. You can do it!
Great job Andrew. That base looks like it’s slick. You should place your brand on it. Love the cabinet also. Followed your Instagram on the cabinet construction.
Thank you, Jan! I'll take your advice and put my branding on it. Wish I had time to film the cabinet build. Plus it was an intricate design that used all my brain power since I do not build cabinets--no routine around that procedure. Super happy with how it all came out and functions though!
Looks fantastic! Cant wait to see it in person... then tear it to shreads! Bwahahahahaha! Seriously, gonna steal every good idea from it and us it for my Unisaw. Great work, Andrew!
Thank you, Tom! Always welcome to steal any ideas you like. Happy to share!
well thats not going anywhere! next video of the cabinet under the saw?
Thank you, Jason! I had to put my head down and knock that cabinet out, so didn't film it. I have seven videos shot currently, just need to rough-edit and send footage to Walter Peters for editing. Feels a little overwhelming, to be honest. Oh yeah, there's the big announcement, Walter will edit videos moving forward--I'm super excited for that!!!
The HW110LC-39P is 411 lbs. Well done on the base. Looks great. Is the saw sturdy with it permanently on locking casters? No screw feet needed? Does the rubber on the casters get temporary flat spots when sitting a while? What diameter casters?
Thank you for great questions! It's rock steady, doesn't wobble at all. No need for screw jacks to stabilize. Guessing due to three factors: steel is over sized at 1.5 x .120" wall square tube, base is effectively a truss and corners have triangulated stiffeners (1/2 x .120 wall round tube).
I had these 4" diameter full-locking wheels on my previous wooden torsion box base that held a Jet XACTA cabinet saw for a few years. Now with 8+ years of use, they still function perfectly smooth. No flat spots, even when it sits for 3-4 months in one place. All the best, Andrew
Here's the wheels I used www.castercity.com/product/plate-casters/4-swivel-caster-red-poly-wheel-total-locking-brake-cm3a/
Great info thanks!
@@jheissjr Gladly, happy to help any way I can!
What a great stand. What gauge of metal did you use for the tablesaw load? What’s that spray gun brand and model you used and would you recommend it? And how do you know how much mineral spirits for thinning the paint without weakening it? Did you do that for both primer and paint? Thanks for the video!
Thank you, Luis! Metal is 1.5 x 1.5 x 0.120". Spray gun is Harbor Freight small trim gun. It's not my favorite, since I could not get much flow out of it. I much prefer my full size Finex/Graco 3000 HVLP spray gun, which I've used for years. I thin about 10% for primer, 15-20% or so for paint, adjusting by feel until it flows right. Hope this helps!
@@branchandfoundry560 Thank you so much for the info. Will look into it.
@@LuisSanchez-wf9zw Gladly! Hope it works out for you. Let me know if Sean doesn't have a connection for you & I'll find someone else who does.
Love me some sketchy shit 👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you, Eric! There were definitely some creaks and groans from the roof joists, but it worked great.
I like everything but the not cheap, cheap chicom table saw. Buy merican, honestly judging by your skills I think you know better.
Thank you. I paid $3,200.00 USD for this Harvey table saw--not exactly cheap, but ok. What American made table saw do you recommend?
@@branchandfoundry560 I normally go old school, but I see your point. Kind of like Samsung and iPhone. SawStop moved manufacturing recently I wasent aware of. At the bare minimum I would go American-owned. I have looked at Harvey and didn't like them as a company at all. I'm more into metal and all that seventies and eighties US made lathes are head and shoulders above any of the imports.
@@Skebtik Harvey is the OEM for most table saw brands we know today here in the U.S. Honestly, I looked at most of the brands they make (JET, PowerMatic, Grizzly, etc) and Harvey's own saw is the superior machine all the way around. It replaced my JET Xacta II cabinet saw and there is no comparison--Harvey is a million times better on every aspect of design, function, accuracy and power. I do not know of a single U.S. based table saw manufacturer that exists today.
I've had a couple older table saws and a 12" jointer made in 1907 (drank the Frank Howarth kool aid for while there). While they were hulking cast iron beasts that looked cool as hell, none functionally compared to the new machines I've replaced them with...there's a long list of reasons they don't make them like they used to. I've lived on both sides of the fence, and I'd never go back to old machines.
Hope that helps on some level 🤷♂
Basically polar opposite of the machine industry but I'd disagree as far as harvey being superior to sawstop. Harvey has quite a few reports of issues on online forums.
