suggestion watch some youtube videos on blades and the correct way to use them you will be surprised how good your saw will become after Applying the correct procedures and blades etc
I would not recommend this saw as a ‘Finish’ saw. I have never cut aluminium with it. If a perfect cut is what you want you may need to spend money on a better saw.
What a fabulous jig! Would it work with 18mm MDF do you think, given the current price of ANY sort of plywood?! I’d love a link to ‘Michael Oldberg’ too - not sure I have the spelling right as he’s in Sweden and a search of that spelling came up with nothing building related. Cheers
Great idea but my main concern would be if you are doing a compound radius on a smaller length of fretboard, say for an electric guitar, the radius would be out as it's only true at the pivot point. I could be totally wrong but unless you have a method for compensating the gradual change, it will only be correct when using the full length of the jig.
The jig is graduated in inches. You know the start and end radius, subtract one from the other and divide this by the number of graduations, this gives the radius at each mark. So you can move the fret board up or down the jig to get the radii you want. If you only make guitar fret boards this jig could be scaled down. I built it this long in case one of my strange friends want an oversized fret board
You need something like a ‘long jaw bearing puller’ or a blind hole bearing puller. So far the bearings in our bars are ok but I will be looking at getting a bearing puller in the future.
You could do a "surfacing" pass to the thickness of that last plate you glued on, effectively removing it. Then you'd only need to re-do one plate... Thanks for sharing this one! Usually people only post successes, but seeing that other people experience *$%@-ups too is reassuring, and a better learning experience for us, the public. :) Good luck with the remainder of your build!
i see the sheppach comes with a parkside blade which i lidl tools thats a bit odd as ban q do the same saw two models with sheppach blades 2 of each how are you finding it after use mate any good cheers .
Oh I forgot if you are like me and thought it would save getting down on my knees to measure the footprint the dimensions on Charnwoods site and others who have copy and pasted from them are wrong I found out when I couldn't get the base large enough for my bandsaw then I measured.
Hi . Thinking of buying it ... Do you have any problems with cross cut at angles , ie some cheaper brands "wobble or move as you cut the angle ? Thanks 👍
Shitpach... lmao... Was thinking to get this myself but mite just spend abit extra and go for the Bosch Professional Panel Saw GCM 8 SJL with the stand.. I like higher quality when working around and with high speed moving blades.. Once you said it looks like something from China just with a sticker from Scheppach i'm out.. lol..
@@mortality1987 Yeah but they did it worse for Lidl. Table saw from shippach has better work table quality than Parkside has (where metal parts are thinner version etc.) - so price is better for lidl
I have the same telly and have just ordered that bracket only problem my house is all dry wall so having to use dry wall plugs what are people’s thoughts grip-it’s says they are good for 113kg
I agree about the blade that comes with it it doesn’t have a great blade for fine finish . Dustbag isn’t worth a damn The laser I find was not strong enough turned it off after five uses I haven’t turned it back on pencil and square or a marking knife works great. I found your video because my saw stopped working trying to figure out why. Otherwise I love it its a great tool for doing outdoor projects.
To prevent tear out on the top, stick a piece of painters tape on the cut line. To prevent tear out at the back, drill a couple of holes in the fence and screw on a piece of scrap wood. Make a cut and you have yourself a zero clearance fence.
Do you know anything about this "reverse table" I bought the saw on the bases it could cross cut up to 720mm and 520mm is the biggest cross cut I can achieve?
Thanks for the vid, always adds confidence, being able to see inside a machine before opening it up. I successfully swapped out my brushes and am back up and running
Why does no one every mention on these reviews that the sliding crosscut table is about 4mm higher than the fixed blade bed this is by far its biggest downfall

I don't know why but I was having real trouble with this construction. I couldn't get it clear in my head to start but once I saw your assembly it was ridiculously simple. Thanks also for the heads up on the direction of the bolts
Thanks for a helpful video, you saved me putting the bolts in the wrong way as I also would prefer the nuts inside. I like the idea of the wheel axle going through the side bar, I shall copy that right now! Thanks again.
