Andy- not sure if I am more impressed by the saw, the lift table, or your enthusiasm at having your son working with you. So happy for you that everything seems to be coming together for you and your business. Upgraded kit, “new” helper, and expanded shop. Looking good sir.

Wow, so pleased for you both after such a tuff time. The shop looks amazing and can’t wait to see it all finished.

Looking great all these new machines will be awesome for use. Glad to see the smile back again you deserve all of it and more all the best Andy and Will

Glad to see you guys getting back to to it !

I love that the Bosch PBD40 still lives on in the background - congrats on the new place and gear, onwards and upwards!

gratulation zu den neuen Maschinen, sind echt toll.... finde deine Videos einfach Spitze... die Outtakes sind weltklasse... schöne Grüße aus Österreich/Austria

That's one amazing upgrade in any and every way, congratulations! It's so cool and inspiring to see how you've grown since you first started on KZfaq, have a wonderful Christmas and may the new year bring you nothing but good :)

Beautiful !!! Great videos keep them coming. Have a great holiday season.

Holy moly I love that saw! 🙂

Aaaahhhh……there it is! 😂😂😂 the new big machine! That’s a beautiful machine! Makes me even more anxious for mine to get here. I have a Felder that is stuck on a container ship out in the Pacific Ocean. Already 6 weeks late. Hopefully it will be here soon. Thx for the video.

Great video! Yes, please do a video on comparing the FAT300 to the new FAT500. Good luck with your new shop. Thanks for taking the time to share your videos - really appreciate it.

wow beautiful. congratulations !!!

You looked happy as Larry with your new gear lol …wicked stuff mate the saw is a beast ,well done shop looks the nuts be safe ,,👌

Face like a kid in a sweet shop with that new saw! And I can't blame you. Amazing mate. Some serious kit.

Nice slider!

Perfect tor cutting the Christmas turkey! Merry Christmas!

Do I need it? Nah. Do I want it? Hell, yeah! Can't possibly justify the expense as a hobbyist, but it's on "buy when I hit the lottery" list.

Man, that is one sweet panel saw, I almost expected it to crank out a cappuccino and a donut for you as well.😉 That was a good job scored through the company to commission you for the office table too👌🏽 Things are looking really good and coming along at a steady pace. Loved the out takes, need more of them.👍🏽

I have an F45 and love it to bits, but mine if from 1988

Good machine

I dont know if im more jealous of the table saw or of the fact that you work with your son most days of the week

Congratulations on the new Altendorf! I'm green with envy. That's a seriously sweet machine. I've been waffling for some time among a Format 4 Kappa 400 (Felder), a Martin Machine T65, and an Altendorf F45. A slider is a real game changer for someone like me whose been running traditional American cabinet saws for years (though I do break down panels with a Festool track saw). Alas, sticker shock! Even the Robland, Hammer, and SCMI cost a pretty penny. Every time I get close to making a decision, I think of the enormous cash outlay, and I get a terrible case of cold feet.

The F45 is the best table saw in the world

Nice machine. We have the older version in the workshop and are very satisfied. The Altendorf company is only fifteen km away from us. Greeting a Zimmermann from Schamburg

Hi I'm new to your channel but not the Altendorf name. You have the RR of panel saws. The red light over the scoring blade is definitely a big safety feature. Looking forward to following. Tony

Красота👍🏻🥴

Very nice Andy, In the words of Darth Vader Impressive.......... Most Impressive ; )

Happy to see a real saw on a YT channel. Kinda fed up with all the US channels and their flimsy/baby Powermatics, SawStops, etc. 😁

Im kind of surprised with the altendorf, I had expected a high end format 4. I completely understand though with all the features that this saw come with.

you look happy bro;-) but fire sure puts a new spin on everything eh;-) am in the midst of the same thing, my home i just finished over a 7 year period burnt to the ground. Thank god for insurance and for surrender. Like you am grateful to be alive;-) merry xmass bro to you and yours may your new year fill your cup with even more greatness ! glad nobody got hurt on both our parts;-) yours always BBh

I have nothing to say really, but I appreciate your content, and wish to help with the yt-algorithms.

Parabéns uma boa máquina mas fica muito caro pra trazer para o Brasil

Great video & an amazing saw. can I ask your advice on something? I've just bought the Robland fZ300 as my first panel saw. I'm struggling with ripping wider panels. Say I put a clean edge on the board & I want 2 cuts at 550mm I can bump & cut the first one. However the second cut will be unsupported by the sliding carriage. Is the only solution to stand at the back & handle it like a table saw? As this makes the sliding carriage redundant. Any advice would be appreciated.

Hi i love your workshop that panel saw is a beauty.I own a felder AD741 planer thicknesser its great to use. Manor wood have you seen the panto router.?

Would have been nice if you would have flipped a piece of that crosscut over to see how well the scoring blade actually worked as that yellow pine faced is really brittle .

I use an older generation of an Altendorf saw like this, it's good but it's not as perfect as you say. The saw is calibrated to expect an exactly 1/8" saw kerf, so when you send your blades out to get sharpened you have to take carbide loss into account. I suppose it's not an issue if you're the only one operating the saw, but we have 10 cabinet makers and probably over 40 saw blades that get constantly changed and sharpened. It's a lovely saw but realistically it only offers convenience, not accuracy.

Hi Andy do you need to calibrate the panel saw every time you get a saw sharpened?

Looks great. CNC saw fence is so awesome it save so much time from the "nudge technique" you will never want to go back. Not sure if Altendorf is the same but be careful when switching from high to low fence, you might need to push the fence button, not that I ever forgotten that and cut wrong. ;) Might I ask roughly how much the machine cost would be great for when looking for which manufacturer to choose in the future. Thanks. Also looking forward to see the new shop. Have a great Christmas/holidays.

felder table saw or altendorf which is best ?

The extension table in front and side of the Blade are melamin MDF panel ?

Amazing machine...this is really a great working equipment. Would you mind sharing how I can get one of this at my location at Saskatoon, Saskatchewan Canada and what the budget is like.

This model doesn't come with nesting capability. Can it be added later on.

Does Altendorf offer diamond blades like Felder? I love the idea of a blade that just stays sharp pretty much forever.

That looks like a really nice saw! To be honest i was expecting a felder saw, i believe you teased something about the saw some time back. What made you go for this saw over a top of the line felder? Can't wait to see more of the machines!

Hi, What is the cost of panel saw in this specification please?thanks

Hi Andy, how's the saw so far? I need a proper panel saw pretty bad and a brand new F45 like yours might be an option. Did you check out Martin at the time or did you just go straight for an Altendorf?

You Being a felder guy, did you look at the kappa or big felder panel saws ? What was the deciding factor for you ?

We have one but the blade is creeping out of vertical. It has done quite some years service but it seems like it should be an easy fix for an experienced user? Anyone here?

Why would you slam that guard?

how large is the room itself? how many square meters?

How can I contact if I want get machine scm

Hey Andy, that’s some saw man....😛watching it cut is nearly better than porn lol, you looked well pleased and why the hell not, fair play Andy and best of luck with the new shop👍👍👍🇮🇪👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Please invest in better sound recording equipment as this spoils your video

Good machine
