- I HAVE GOT A CHEAP AND NASTY TABLE SAW THAT I WANTED TO TURN INTO SOMETHING HALF DECENT SO I BUILT THIS STATION I HAVE GOT TO BUILD A FENCE IN PART 2 I WOULD LOVE SOME COMMENTS TO SEE IF THERES ANYTHING I COULD HAVE DONE BETTER I AM GOING TO DO A VIDEO ON MY OLD TABLE SAW TO SEE IF I CAN REPAIR THE MOTOR
I watch a lot of woodworking videos. It is nice to see someone else who doesn't have a 2200 sq. ft. workshop that is perfectly organized and clean.
Man I love to see a passionate woodworker just make the affordable tools into something good. Only a bad carpenter blames his tools, a good carpenter can improve his tools. Awesome job ! Liked and subscribed.
I have one of those saws and they are perfectly good saws for what I need. The legs and ancillaries are best to be customised for your needs and you’ve done a great job. Well done.
You do have to spend some time setting the saw up... blade, fence, etc. But once done, the saw is great. Fairly compact which is Nice th-cam.com/users/postUgkxXh-4_3-ZT1fFWP91ZV7iVqzElr0lEb-a I did get an Incra Miter Gauge which takes some setup as well. The stock miter gauge can be adjusted in the miter slot with a little painter's tape... this tightens up the side to side play a lot.
Nice job! Very sturdy framework for your saw.
Really enjoying your “ no nonsense” approach.
I love that you’re not ridiculously ‘ precious’ about how you work.
That’s deffo not a criticism. You do woodworking that I can attempt to follow. Lots of other unloaders just make everything too difficult.
Love your channel. Great stuff.
Thanks.
Love to see videos where people grb what they have +1 +1 +1
Some very helpful pointers mate, thanks
Great video. As a wood worker I find myself never doing what I want to do. It's always stuff I'm doing I should have done weeks ago. Your not alone.
Brilliant just like me you use anything you can get your hands on. My Wife calls me a skip rat. Wood is so expensive and people throw it away. Improvise adapt and overcome my friend well done that man.👍
Good job mate ! I am a yank, and you impressed me with your natural talent and ability to think outside of the box. I also like to be creative and build things from older stuff that looks like it is on its last leg. I make new things from old shipping pallets and skids. Once again, great job on your part. Well done !
Very nice work. It appears to be effective and easy on the pocket. Thanks for sharing. I'm going to try making it. looking forward to your fencing video. thanks
I bloody loved this video. I’m in the middle of doing a similar thing, but because the motor was knackered in the cheap table saw I had, I’ve replaced it with a hand circular saw and built a cage for it so I still have the height and tilt adjustment. Now off to watch pt 2!
Hi mate, great idea of yours and it looks great. I have a Titan saw but I have not used it as I should and it is in my outside building.
It's too cold for me to go in the building as I suffer from arthritis, so at present I am converting one of the bedrooms into a small workshop. I bought the saw Screwfix
When it was on offer so in the next few days I am moving the saw into the room.
Sorry for rabbiting on and once again
Great video.
Nice job mate 👍
Pretty much exactly what I was looking for. Had a similar plan in mind and watching this took all the head-scratching out of it. Nice to find a 'how to make a table saw' video that doesn't require already having a table saw. Great video, top bloke. 'You can't educate pork' 😂
Outstanding build! "I don't like spending money" - you and all of us out here.
Well done!
A well presented video, a simple but brilliant upgrade and explained well without any bull or
posturing for the camera.
Thanks Mr Sharp, good no-nonsense upgrade. I have a similar saw table that I just don't use but now I feel I can adapt it to work to my needs. Cheers!
I have a similar saw (from Aldi in Australia) and this build is better than my table replacement/addition. It's very sim0p-le and quick. So thanks heaps and now I'm off to the 'workshop' to build it.
You have got to be a Yorkshire man, I've heard that they are tight and don't like spending money? But, I am the same, that is why I bought a similar saw from Aldi. Co. Durham, is my neck of the woods. But thanks a million, been trying for ages to a numpty with a saw like mine. Cheers Geoff Maddison. Will be watching part 2 asap.
Good effort and it does the job 👍🏻
Great job. This was exactly the video I was looking for. You did a Great job using the lumber and parts you had on hand.
New to woodwork. My lady bought me a similar saw and i need to gain the skills to do this. Seems like a good place for me to start . Thanks very much ill look for the fence vid
Hi bud key is to take your time good luck bud
I have an old cheap table saw also, and want to make it more useful for not a lot of money - thanks for the practical ideas on how to make it so......
a lot to be said for recycling old material I do it all the time just to keep cost low and I cant throw owt away lol love the way you do the vids and jobs ,well done mate
How nice to see a bloke with similar tools as me doing a great video, not one of the all the gear and idea(sorry I've got tool envy)
yea, it's a bit annoying when you're trying to figure an easy way to get something done with what you have, and the only video you can find is a guy using tools you can barely even dream of having.
Done great as I have one of these I'm going to build it into my work bench .nice one.
That was so cool. I hope to make one for my cheap table saw. Thanks! You are very funny too.
My kind of people! Make due and adjust when necessary! Great video.
Getting ready to do this myself with maybe my own twist. Great video and great idea. "numpty"....lol.... LOVE IT!!!!!!
Cracking vid
Very good job congratulations. I plan to buy a table saw also and I'm going to follow your plan. Thanks for share
pretty amazing what you did here, I'm in the process of upgrading a craftsman table saw and watched many videos so far. I admire the craftsmanship and innovation of your work. Well done sir.
Thank you very much
Magic mate, exactly what I need
Nice work, its given me some ideas for my workshop!
Sharpy love your videos, and love the way you work, and I don’t like to spend money either but not as good as you. Best of luck and keep em coming.
+Robert Pearson thank you very much Robert always nice to here somone is enjoying the videos cheers
Frosty breath! How bloody cold is it there mate? Also I just subbed. Keep the vids coming ay.
Seen 1 or 2 vids on here, re: making a fence - some look very good. And probably a lot better functioning than the cropped fences on cheaper T/saws. I don't know why so many manufacturers go down the short fence option - when a full span would only be marginally more expensive to manufacture... sure most people would rather part with a small amount more, for a more accurate cut!
3:11 Lovely 4-legged person :-)
I have almost the same cheap table saw. I might just follow suit and make the same improvements you had done with yours!
How refreshing, we make a mistake and smile about it and move on. Great Job!!
Cracking upgrade, you've inspired me to do mine. Thanks a lot!
Looks good to me. Sound job. *****
Just found this vid, and like your style. I also hate spending money. I just replaced a Ferm saw almost identical to that one. It was also cheap and nasty in every respect but the price. Good luck if you ever need to replace the brushes, it's a nightmare to get into. Hope it all worked out well for you.
Good video mate, very thorough. Going to try implement something similar. P s. Should have safety specs on, haha.
Mate, wear a mask! I never wore one when sanding or routing etc. 40 year’s later I’m getting treated for lung cancer. I always wear a mask now with decent filters even though it’s a bit late now. Anyway great vid really enjoyed it. Thanks.
I LIKE THE MAKE VERY EASY METHOD
I loved that video! Thank you! That's what I'm going to do.
Love it sharper.. my draper table saw packed up so I brought one from Aldi.. I think Ill try this to make it more stable
+Jigsey's Workshop cheers jigsey I wouldn't go back to a standard top now it much easier to cut with a wider surface good luck with it
All these cheep saw seam the same size could you not do a cut list
SHARPEYS WORKSHOP
well done, thanks! i was looking for ideas to do exacly that with my saw i got from my wifes father, as i want to split plywood for kithen cabinets
Nice job. Loved the vid.
Thanks Tony
hi, great video, david from sussex
thanks for sharing that
Do you have any plans available for this? I am looking to upgrade my table saw to something a little better.
Mistakes not only take you to the wrong way but they also show you new discoveries
Hi mate new subby here,just found a park side (Lidl) table saw in the skip,not sure why it was thrown away as it appears to be working,I’ve been scouring YT for ideas for a wider top and yours fits the bill mainly because it cost nowt lol
Haha cheers gaz my table saw is a bit poorly at the minute might have to rethink the top but it's easy to do buddy thanks for the sub
Took a cheap ass saw and made it work. Thanks Sharpey.
Someone might actually be able to hear what you are saying if you either boosted the volume for your voice track or lowered your music track. Otherwise, the video is quite fascinating on how to take a poor old table saw and give it new life.
Great job,this will be my next project. I set mine on top of an old oak file cabinet. My cheap Harbor Freight table saw is about 3or4 ° off from cutting straight,so I have to set my fence to match it every time . Do you have any suggestions on how to remedy this?
Hi Gary I've just found with mine the mounting brackets have elongated which has put the blade out by about 5 mm iam thinking of saving up and buying a dewalt or such like
Nice job can send me the dimensions of your table
Nottingham or Derbyshire?
3:18 pup comes in for a quick snog.
Nowt like a cold nose in the eye to say i love you
Like your recyclng of timber on this project, far to much goes in the skip when i could be reused with a bit of imagination, Well done
What are the dimensions of your table top?
That's great many thanks
Nice job ....please get an electric heater or something your shop is cold you can see your breath
I just found ur video today Sharpey my friend.. U made a great job of this saw. I bought one of those TITAN saw's for my 1st table saw and it was a huge mistake bro. The table top is a piece of shit. I wouldn't ever recommend anybody buy one of these shithouse saws.. They are the noisiest bastds ever and the fence is trash too.. I built my 1st workbench this week and it's ok but if I had the use of a proper Table saw It coulda been so much better. I had to hand saw everything and it took ages.
I'm going to try and take the top off completely and replace it with 18mm MDF. I have the Aluminium Mitre slots and all to put on the MDF. I will use Shellac to make the top better to use in the long run but I'm going to get the best out of it until I decide if I ever want to buy a proper table saw in the future,, I also have to build a proper Table saw fence too now. This fence is pure dog shite as well man.. LMAO.
I honestly never realised how bad this thing was. I have their jointer/Thicknesser as well and it;s decent ceot for the bloody fence on the thing. It's pure trash too.. Something about fences with this shower a eejits at TITAN.. tHEY NEED TO SPEND THEIR MONEY BETTER WHEN BUILDING A BUDGET SAW. The top and the fence are more important than these fools realise..
BTW, I really enjoyed ur video on here bro.. Hope ur channel has motre to come bcos I will be looking now,,
Ha,,,adapt.modify and improve! Brilliant.
And now its time for a workshop tidy up 😂😂
you sound like you live not far from my neck of the woods, here on Barnsley, nice build , rough round the edges but its for use not looking at mate uh ; keep posting, from Garry
Iam a sheffield lad garry
Could you not draw up plans and a cutting list video is very good
+john fenty hi John thank you I am slowly getting into sketch up mate if you give me a little while I will do my upmost cheers paul
@@SHARPEYSWORKSHOP I would definitely enjoy getting those plans as well... Thank you Sharpey!
Deliberate mistake. I make a lot of those. It's for educational purposes, so others won't have to.
Thanks for the cideo but Kill the music - it's not needed, better to talk then silence or just sub-titles Cheers
Love your videos but when I bought my table saw i spent more as feel better quality well last longer and safer to use
I can see your point but to be honest I've never bought a new saw the one I use now was gifted to me the others I've had have been second hand but iam thinking of getting a dewalt next but we will see cheers buddy
The important question is ----- What's your dogs name?
