I think your videos leave all the other woodworkers in the dust. Yours are professional, terse, and "to the point". I have built many shop machines myself over the years and it is really nice to see others do it - and with better ideas.

Brilliant. Watched it several times to make sure I got all the details correct. I have also built a table saw out of my circular saw and it works like a charm for the smaller projects. I will be improving my design using some of the information I've gleaned form here. Thanks for super ideas and superb workmanship.

Amazing! There are quite a few tutorials on how to make a table saw out of a circular saw but you took it to a whole new level! Can't wait for part 2. Thank you

My uncle did this using a workmate. It was very compact and portable and worked great for when he needed shop tools in the field. Great for ripping 2x4's when doing outside contract jobs. Thanks for the videos.

Actually, I did use a table saw to square up some of the pieces.

Using what you have to get what you want, the best definition of genius.

Great video's Matthias,I am a 62 year old newbie to woodworking and have found your videos on making the table saw fantastic. I have spent countless hours in my workshop building this and sure you can go to the hardware and buy a $200 table saw , but the satisfaction and enjoyment building your own outweighs buying a piece of cheap Chinese made crap. Keep up the good work mate.

I'm an aspirant into woodworking(hobbyist/filipino)...this will be my first project....thnx Mr. Wandel.

Genius at work, I needed to pay attention when I went to trade school in the old Europe! Long a go. You are the man.....Thank You for the instructions this old emigrant can fallow! One of many on the YOU TUBE! Thank You AMERICA!

I've been waiting for this! Your builds on workshop tools are some of the finest, and they are expained in great detail. I can't wait for part 2 of this saw. Thank you!

Totally dig those long reach "c" clamps! Following you on your work for a while rather silently, but I like the way you work over all...we're all different...moot point, but I like your style, and wish I had half of your experience with wood, not to mention the mathematical knowledge....this is why I appreciate you more! You are easy to understand and don't come off as "highbrow"...non engineers can grasp, without feeling less than human.

Build from scratch is always appreciated, good job Matthias!

hello matthias, first time i saw your video on youtube i began to love wood working you're a great teacher

I watched your video with subtitles in spanish. Tank you, I'm impressed. You are really creative. Muchas gracias!!

this is awesome. i was thinking just the other day of how to go about doing this. When you're short on space and funds every tool needs to be multifunctional. can't wait for part 2

I'm so glad to see you doing this. Can't wait to see what sort of fence system you come up with!

Excellent design and nicely built. Will give many years of service. Fascinating watching you design it on the hoof and put it together. I love the way that it is all made of wood. Won't vibrate like a lot of today's machines built from thin plate and is far more sturdy. Ignore the silly comments below. These people probably aren't capable of putting something together like this, and will just go out and pay hundreds of dollars for a shop bought piece of tin-rubbish which will rattle apart after a few years use. Designing and building your own tools and machines is far more satisfying, and once built that can be modified and refined.

This build is great I have been looking to do the same thing, I feel this is the best example of a build yet!

Woooow!!! very good project, ever needed a machine, thank you very much. Greetings from the south of the world, Chile.

This one is very good project for the professional woodworker in developing countries who don't have much money to spend on Table saw.A very Neat project.can't wait to see part 2

My dad built one in the 70s. You make his look like a kids toy. Great job.

I can't stop watching these videos from you Matthias.

MATHIAS, YOU SURPASSED OTHER PROJECTS THIS LINE, THAN ALREADY SAW IN KZfaq, I CAN'T WAIT FOR PART 2. THANK YOU. INNOVATE YOU OLD IDEAS, I'M WATCHING FROM BRAZIL.

I love the fact you are using the tool that is the tool you are making! Great Irony at work!

You make it look just so easy and there's where the inspiration kicks in with this video, so I have a 8" 1/4 blade Dewalt circular saw that shoul give an extra blade height and power as well, thanks again!!

I'd recomend a contractor's saw, or a hybrid saw, with a cast iron top.

Really like your video, Matthias. I learn something with every one. Thanks!

Matthias Wandel, congratulations for great ideas that brings always here for us !!

I really love all the work you do with wood thanks for sharing, some people don't understand the good stuff, excellent job continue doing it.

Hi Matthias, can see great applications for this device. I know Festool has made something similar for their circular saws to be mounted to a table and taken to a work site as a mobile tablesaw. Good work and looking forward to part B!!

you are a plywood master! Nice table saw, looks like it will provide a cleaner cut than most bought at the hardware store.

Your builds are always so well thought out and your solutions are sensible. I am attempting to remake a small Craftsman Table saw with an improved top and fence system. It's different in that the 45* swing mechanism is to the side and above where the platen would be on a circle saw. It hangs from the underside of the top. Making a new top will be a challenge.

Whatever is cheap, mostly. Although I do like the Ryobi corded drills. Of the cheap ones, those are the only ones with a two stage gear reduction.

I really enjoyed seeing your process. That is the most important take-away from this...not another table saw, great vid.

Of all the things I would've liked to see you build, it's a table saw. Thanks a bunch Matthias.

Great video. I love the presentation. You have a brilliant mind. Thank you for your time and for sharing all your projects.

DUDE! You are so awesomely clever, creative and talented!

Good Job! You're a genius man! Congrats....

Ive been putting off doing this for a while . Just seemed so dangerous and really worth the potential saving. After seeing your unique version . I may have to give it a whirl

Hey hats off to your workmanship. Nice technique. Put a foot switch into the mix for safety and I can't see why anyone could argue with that being a safe tool. Chainsaw dovetails is another beautiful video.

Really really really...i dunno...awesome! Not for me right now, but i'll definitely try to build one using your techniques. You gave me good ideas on how to "think" when trying to build something ^^ Thanks!

great job man, NICE build, your engineering skills are good too, good thinking!

you just save me a lot of thinking and planning for this idea. thanks matt.

This will come in very handy for anyone who wishes to build MY NICE EV as the timber will be laminated for strength. Your band saw too is an amazing project like this one. Thank you very much. Just keep them coming.

You are a wood working genius! I love your channel and web site! Thank you!

1/4" on that one. I have a wider blade in the other saw.

I'am following you Mathias from woodgears.ca for more then a year. I was expecting you to make this work but you did not up to now. Meanwhile, i kept looking for home made table saws with circular hand saw for more than 2 months. I've watched many videos. You always have brillieant ideas and practical solutions Mathias. Great work again.

Matthias je čudotvorac miracle man :D very nice hi from Zagreb, Croatia

Man u are a genius, thanks for share ur proyects with us..

THIS IS FANTASTIC! Perfect solution if there isn't enough room for a table saw! Can't wait for plans if this works!

Sir You are indeed a genius.

Very good and nice invention, I like it, Although I am not a professional woodworker but I am very fond of woodworking and want to make something, Thank you for providing me the best knowledge and video, Zafar from Quetta Pakistan

I'm new to your channel...; Hell of a design my friend. That's creativity as it's best. I've seen much simple designs out there for a DIY table saw but you truly took your time and actually design a concept that if the circular saw goes bad one can always get another one of the same brand or adjust it to a different brand, well done!

beautiful idea!!! I toll to my husband this idea some time ago, and he said mmmmmmm you are crazy!!! right now I see my idea here and i am not crazy, lol !!! great job!!! i have evidence to my husband .... in the world the people is too creative!!

Very beautiful you are an artist and I am a follower of Hassan al - Saadi from Iraq I have benefited greatly from your minds

hola amigo hace bastante tiempo que veo tus vídeos y te felicito ahora pude leer en castellano tus explicaciones ahora si te entiendo mejor me gustaría que todos hicieran lo mismo gracias desde Alerce puerto montt chile.

Genius ! Sheer Genius. A very ingenuine, successful attempt.

7:27 I guess at this point it could be a decent miter saw too. In any case, I'm truly admirative of your ingenuity.

Good stuff! Cracked me up at the end. I realized I was squinting in horror while watching the test cuts waiting for something catastrophic to happen, but I guess if it had, there wouldn't be a video.

I think your work is excellent! I will try to copy it. I will send some photos to you when I finish. I'm from Brazil. Thank you.

You're a genius. Wow! For me to do that it'll take a long time. I don't have all the tools you have. Great job by the way.

superbe réalisation et très ingénieuse ! Bravo! Ça donne vraiment envie d'en faire autant.

your the steven hawking of woodwork , your amazing

Хорошая приспособа!По твоему видео себе собрал,но в металле.Спасибо за идею.Удачи!

U r amazing and not just cuz this video. I been watching some of ur other videos and u r one smart guy good job keep up the excellent work

Estimado Matthias, siempre miro tus vídeos y realmente son muy buenos-- quiero saber algo por que algunos vídeos tienen la traducción en Castellano MUY BUENA, y otros no tienen traducción y otros una traducción que no se entiende nada, ademas quiero agradecerte por no poner música--si miro el vídeo y trato de entenderlo no puedo escuchar música. Bueno lo que haces es muy bueno--te felicito.

Can't wait to see how you build your fence. I bolt my Porter Cable saw to the bottom of 1/2" Birch and lay across saw horses. I have problem with blade deflection and then binding. Haven't come up with a sturdy fence yet.

I'm very glad to see this video now, because it's just actual for me. Thanks for making this project! You were using the shop made C clamps, You should add a link to it at 07:50.

Good stuff - I've been thinking about doing this a while as I need a small blade precision table saw for my workbench (already own a couple large ones) As I watched this two things came to mind. One - Surely the lawyers at Makita collectively crapped their pants at this, and Two) Surely the engineers at Makita went out for drinks in your honor. :)

i am speechless... congrats man !!

dammm matthiasur a genius on this... thanks for the video realy hellpfull

Like I said, I'm using screws for some joints so I can take it apart again..

You just make it look like you started fooling around one Saturday afternoon after you had picked up the circular saw at a yard sale. Excellent.

Kind of amazing how "easily" you can assemble a workable table. Looks like you can get about 80% of the the way there (to a "perfect" TS) with minimal fuss. I'll be interested to see afterwards when you compare it to a real TS -- arbor runout, depth of cut, repeatability, etc. thanks for the video!

I love how you have such a beautiful table saw, and still you would rather tinker with a homemade table saw for no other reason than, well, because you can. Lol! Love your vids bro! I'm still waiting to see the belt cage on your homemade jointer. ;)

ok Matthias, thats a real enthusiastic play, you could buy a table saw for half the effort. But working with wood sometimes needs a challenge for itself. Great job anyway.

In the late '70's a DIY magazine featured a home made table saw that was my first table saw. Cut a lot of wood with it until I could afford a store bought saw. Those plans had you leave the shoe on the saw for depth control. I like your ideas way better because you also can tilt the blade for angle cuts.

I like your videos, i learn a lot from them. Thanks.

Finding your videos in the subscription box is like finding presents under the christmas tree!

This is so cool... I might have to try this out over the weekend.

Parabéns pelos seus vídeos ,muito bom !!

Really? Have you successfully bought something from gilliom, or are you just saying?

I've considered making a table saw table for one of my cordless circular saws. I don't ever need a table saw for the small amount of woodworking I do, so it's just a fun little idea I'd like to try out. You're going much more in depth than I was. I was simply going to make it so I could drop the saw in upside down and screw the sled into the "table saw base".

hello, thank you for this product , I like because it's very good and easy to make, I'm a Vietnamese , and I live in Vietnam , I watched a lot of clips of you , I love like your job , you do not need one maid , just let me eat, I will work for you from 3 to 5 years .

Wow. You never cease to amaze me.

I have to agree with Alexander about it not being necessary to remove anything from the circular saw.I had a piece of aluminum and i simply bolted the base of the saw to it.There were already holes in the saw base plate and it seemed that this was what they were intended for.

I really like your videos. Best wishes from Egypt :)

Good job Matthias, you are the best on youtube, keep the good work

Watched this video months ago, yesterday wife comes home from garage sale with makita saw identical for like $2.00. Back to video.

I like his style. He's a creative guy.

Your videos is inspiration for my project.

Absolutely brilliant! Thank you for shearing...

Bravo my friend!! Now that is woodworking ingenuity. Good job.

Saludos cordiales. Excelente, me gustaría que publique sus trabajos en español, claro que las imágenes son entendibles ,pero de pronto se escapa algo que no entienda,esperando una pronta respuesta. Desde Guayaquil , Ecuador

Wow It's briliant ideas Another way to build table saw I really love it.. Thank ... 😎

Fantastic.. brother :-) thank's for share your experience

Por fin después de ver varios de sus videos pude saber qué es lo que dice, gracias por los subtítulos y gracias por mostrarnos todos sus proyectos

"time to make some sawdust" If this was a B-action movie, that'd be the line that get's you an oscar.

I love the project... I also love how you moved it along.... without a bunch of Yackity yack yack yack! Great qualities in a video!

Hello, you do excellent presentations, which i have been following for over six months now. I would like if you could look into making a depth adjustable table saw using a skill worm drive hd77 saw. thanks
