      @@Musicpins they suck, theyre better than some but a million miles from the best. They aren't wide enough, they don't have a scale on, they don't go close enough to the blade, if you mount it from the other side to rip wider it leaves some sizes unaccounted for. For the price they charge the fences should be the best but they're mediocre at best.

      @@bmartinot I don't know, mine came with the normal rip fence and I bought the extra one for "narrow" rips. The one that goes under the base plate, and they have done anything I needed them to.
      I don't know what fences you got, both mine have a scale, but... I don't use them, I put a mark where I need to rip and I line my blade up to that.
      If you need to do very wide rips, you need to use a track instead.. Well, or a stationary tablesaw.

    Hi 👋 Simon, great territorial as usual, excellent piece of kit, I saw a video many years ago, where one guy was doing the bird beak cut On I think it was 10 rafters all at the same time. He had them all set up on benches and just walked the full length in one hit., Back in the early 2000s I purchased, Mafell mortising machine, Yes expensive, I made up some plates and a block that I could clamp to the size of a beam, and I then could cut the mortise and the tenone with the same machine, I’ve since purchased the door lock machine, the large, router and the jigsaw, DD40 , I even had a pair of aluminium jigs made up similar to Lingnatool Dovetail jig, I made a pair of plywood templates, until I got the joint correct, then I got a company to machine a pair of 10 mil, thick aluminium plates with spaces, adjustable angle plates, and depth stop, I wish you all the success for the future. Stay safe, I’m now retired in my 70s,

    Yeah, Mafell is great, as is Festool. They are essentially neighbors and also often compatible. Both make their own motors in Germany and produce most parts themselves.
    I was fortunate enough to do a design job for festool last year and had a tour around their factory. Super impressive. Well trained personell, incredible quality control, everything is well thought out and optimized. Great working environment.
    Although such tools are more expensive, it‘s not like the money goes into the pockets of the managers. They are committed to pay fair wages, do loads of r&d and use maximum quality parts + invest in great production facilities. Money well spent imho.

So you can work also in the middle of a big sheet or so. Second free hand held without any rail or fenc its not verry accurat, bc of the little blades on the side it also removes wood when you start to "drift". Btw nice video.

    How is it that dado stacks aren’t legal in much (all?) of Europe but a handheld 3 HP track/radial saw with essentially a super wide dado drum no big deal?

  • @petrsidlo7614

    Wow. I would be hesitant to use this just because of the sheer width of cut with a handheld tool. How does it feel while using it, did ever give you any snags or jumps? And dou the offer multiple widths?

    Can you make Scarf Joints with that beast? What are the best scarf joints to link to pieces of wood together in your opinion? Does that saw blade come in different widths?

    • @simonbowler1
      @simonbowler1  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Im sure you could make a scarf joint of some sort with it but I haven't tried. The type would depend on its application, there are some really great videos from others on here about those.
      Yes I believe they sell an adjustable width cutter head for it as well

    If you ever want to cut birdmouth on a couple of rafters in one action, you could use the regular Guide Rail.

    • @simonbowler1
      @simonbowler1  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      As long as the rail would sit securely on the timber I see no reason why not at all.

    • @mckay86
      @mckay86 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@simonbowler1 Mafell has clamps to secure the rail, we use them very often on site to make rip cuts. Our most used are the KSP55, Ks85 and the DSS 300 cc. If you ever have to cut Insulation, this thing is insanely good.

    While cool, if that’s all it does just get a table saw and a dado stack for a fraction of the cost, and even greater repeatability.

      Dado stacks aren’t available in the UK, And some of the beans we use are way too big to go on a table saw!

  • @lougubrious9624
    @lougubrious9624 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    This seems great for this specific use, but I'm having a hard time figuring out how this is twice as good as spending a thousand pounds on a band saw that will be infinitely more flexible and will allow you to have potentially useful offcuts instead of huge piles of worthless chips.

    • @simonbowler1
      @simonbowler1  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I agree a band saw is very versatile and it's why I have one in the workshop. But for the type of work we do day in day out it's not appropriate to use on large section timbers. This is so portable and easy to use that we can have it on the job site which is much more efficient for us.
