Just an FYI, I have seen Matt or anyone else on YT so far review this tool but I just picked up a 39" T square off Bangood and it is excellent. It's very accurate from what I can tell and It was only $50. Red anodized rule with a black T head. I'd love to buy every Woodpeckers tool but, like most of us, I had to get something affordable.

We just got a cat as well. Oxford loves these Central Illinois cicadas. He plays with them and then eats them!

I use my DeWalt like your saw, I think, to cut aluminum......100% of the time..... it is a fantastic tool for that, the only thing I do is use a cutting wax by Tapmatic, Edgelube, and a TCP profile 80 tooth blade......the surface I get will blow you away how smooth.... and yes, it is important to wait for the blade to stop before racing the saw....the dust is no issue, but the chips coming off can be hot, so ear and eye protection is important.... wearing a ball cap with the brim in the proper direction is also very helpful..... all your tips in this video are spot on.....thank you so much....Paul

This is a great blade for some that needs to set down his sign. Hard to install something while holding the sign. You know like the reason fan belts have warnings to make sure motor isn’t on while replacing. Humm why did that ever need stated. Yes this date blade perfect for one that trying to replace a belt while motor is on.

Honestly with their return policy I don't know why anybody would be bitching about defective tools just go swap it out for one that's working

great stuff.....and don't cross your arms....Paul

had to chuckle...at 5:33 you mention beginners crossing their arms..... at 5:00 you were crossing your arms........carry on......Paul in Florida

Nice Tudor Watch.......

fantastic information 731

Seems like a lot of work just to do what a router can do with a router table. Yeah I know some saw tables offer a work space that's larger. Yet nothing one build can't fix. To make a larger table. Yet i understand everyone has their preferences.

jup guilty, i spinn it up before cut, but usually not let it stop before raising it after cut :)

Dont reach and grab off cut, proceeds to reach and grab @ 14:25

Very helpful video especially for the novice. Thanks!

Or just use a square , mark it with the pencil and cut it

Anyone know where to buy the plastic bit holder inserts shown in the thumbnail? Edit: Never mind, found some.

Ryobi is best for homeowners

CAT, Rockwell, WORX and Kress. All made by Positec.

$35?!? That Diablo blade in Australia is around $130!

COOL VID 👊DO THESE DADO SETS ONLY COME IN 8" ? BLADES FOR MY TABLE SAW ARE 10" ? THANKS --ENJOY YOUR DAY.

I have a metabo hpt 12 inch with zero rear clearance. It has the sliders like your festool. I just got it but so far it’s great.

Is it not the case though on most if not all or EU table saws arbor is not long enough to take a dado stack anyway which was just another measure of the EU rules to prevent a dado stack being imported? So even if you can now legally buy an EU approved dado stack it is not gonna fit the saw - if I have understood how things work here in UK/EU

In the EU, CMT sell the 230.312.08M rather than the 230.312.08, which is 6 to 20mm. The Nominal widths table looks very similar, with spacer and shim the thicknesses being quite close, but they're not identical. For instance the 1/8" chipper is noted as being 3.14mm thick on the M set, rather than 3.175mm, so I would be interested to get vernier calipers on these to see if * they are manufactured to metric specs, with the U.S measurements being approximations; * they are manufactured to imperial specs, with the EU measurements being approximations; or * they manufacture them to both metric and imperial specs rather than just varying the documentation.

Theres nothing scary about it whats going on here construction for sensitivitie people who are scared of power tools wow

Do anyone make a singlular wide blade you can use instead?

Why can't you use a dado blade in europe makes nosense talk about nanny state

In middle school we had a whole section dedicated to the dangers of the dado. 40 years later and I still follow those rules. Do they even have shop class in schools these days?

Dosn't help. No saws sold in my country (Norway) can physically fit more than one blade. 😢

My name is Fabio and I am writing to you from Italy. Yesterday the courier delivered to me my first Woodpeckers tool, the "ThinRip Guide with Rack-It". Purchasing it from Italy, including shipping costs, taxes and duties, I paid $110 more than the price in the USA (in in any case less than what I would have paid by purchasing it from a European importer seller!) When I took the tool in my hands I realized that I had spent that money very well because the quality, solidity and precision are not even comparable with the tools , even quality ones, that I have had so far in the laboratory... obviously I won't even mention the ridiculous Chinese clones sold at Banggood that I bought once just out of curiosity. From today on Woodpeckers will have a special place in my workshop. My next purchase will definitely be the combined team you presented in this video.

Actually all mitre saws are set incorrectly.... The angle that is between the fence and blade is 90° but on the saws plate it starts from 0° Or am I looking at it wrong.....

Fantastic video. Im just getting into using routers. I picked up a Bosch with a fixed and plung base kit. I use that on a table i made. Bur, i realized that I needed something more versatile at times. So, i grabbed a Ryobi cordless since that is the battery platform ive fot the most of. Now, i have some good direction on how to use them.

Your small parts organizer boxes in the center look just like mine...random washers, screws, miscellaneous other products, and the overspill from when you forget to fasten the closures prior to picking up and moving said box. It's all a sign of a busy craftsmen. Carry on my friend!

Hi - joined the group, website guy here and a Jesus Follower happy to help advice and directions on websites/logo questions

Put your finger on the cmt dado the eu certification will save your fingers.

skil saw table or dewalt - same price

This is NEVER surprising at all. The SOCIALIST-COMMIE EU is always filled with STUPID REGULATIONS.

Imperial blade goes from 15/64 to 13/16 inch. metric goes from 6 to 20mm. No wonder the rest of the world is using metric, but we still get content with this crazy system.

Matthew, Have you done a review on Harbor Freight HERCULES 15 Amp, 10 in. Compact Jobsite Table Saw with Rack and Pinion Fence. ps enjoy your videos.

I own a carpentry/ woodworking business and I have had Milwaukee, Dewalt, 😊craftsman, Hitachi, Makita and Rigid tools FAIL QUIT and Die within 1st yr. I have 20 yr old Ryobi blue and yellow drills and saws STILL WORKING I HAVE 2 DOZEN ryobi tools and have not had a failure yet! DO NOT BELIEVE THE HATERS RYOBI IS GREAT!

I'm an American living in the EU, and I have a table saw here. The EU law is that ALL BLADES being used in the table saw must use a riving knife. There's no riving knife for the dado blade, so it can't be used. It's not because the dado blades are dangerous. To 'help' people comply with this law, most table saws sold in the EU have short arbors, so even if you could find a dado stack you wouldn't be able to install it. Dado blades are not illegal, but using them is.

Honestly, I would rather have Milwaukee M12 for drills, small saws, etc that need to be portable and corded for everything else.

😅

😂

As you said, the regulations in the EU are about the time it takes to spin down after cutting the power. Any table saw sold in the EU has to come to a stop within 3 seconds after hitting the off switch. Most machines are designed to do so with a standard blade. A dado stack with far more weight than a single blade has, will need significantly more time to spin down. If you want to use dado blades though the manufacturer explicitly warns about the use of blades which do not comply with their recommendations, you may do so in a hobby environment, but not in a business workshop (because of the rules of accident prevention). If in doubt, you can check the spindown time with a stop watch. If it is less than 3 seconds, you are safe (on the legal side). Greetings from Germany, Marcus Disclaimer: I am not a lawyer, this is just what I read from the applying laws in my country.

Those sanders are the worst. I recommend the Colonel Sanders. No joke, you don't want to bock at them.

the Ryobi $99 deal is now showing a 3rd free battery as well, so 3 batteries (4ah, 4ah, and 2ah), maybe that is whT they consider the free tool?

Awesome, I found what I was looking for in this design!

Check out the tools for the Royal big deals. He no longer has that animated bear. He will be carrying out multiple videos about the deals in the next few weeks.

Why not just cut 25 degrees and flip it?
