Got to be the best slide table build I’ve seen and putting your rails on top instead of the bottom takes the sting out of trying to line up your guides. Well done glade I found your channel and yes I wish you’d pressed play and filmed it I think it would have cracked well over a mil in views and counting
3:58 I recently made a sliding table saw and did this exact same thing (rails on top). Yeah it would be such a pain to mount the slide blocks on top penetrating the table surface. Added bonus is the rails help to further stiffen the sliding top
I was just breaking down Make Something’s video on his slider. So glad this popped up. Glad to have more ideas. Yes to the dust collector video please.
Definitely a really good idea man. Just a suggestion but you might want to just remake it and film it to help grow your channel. A build video would definitely blow up. Nice work!
That was extremely well done and will explain thank you for sharing. I've been contemplating making something similar to this for the last number of years. Maybe y on a smaller scale
@@krahnscarpentershop I would argue vociferously with your "better" comment. Your table is 16 inches away from the blade. Not beside it like the Felder and other commercial sliding tables. Do you have the ability to clamp boards to the slider to get a straight line rip on a board edge. I am not criticizing your table. It looks good for cross cutting large sheets of plywood or cross cutting long, heavy boards. But it is very lacking in its ability to make other cuts a professional sliding table can make.
@@russellseaton2014 yeah I just made it for my needs. I don't know what other woodworkers need it for but this works good for me. I do a lot of cabinet doors so it's perfect for me and I guess if you need clamping ability just add that on. It's always possible to add more things to it
What an awesome job my friend. I sooo wish I could see this up close. Just so I could really picture the under side of roller table mechanism. Would love to see pics of under side. Again, very great job and also well built. Steve
I assume the angle iron is to keep the surface as flat as possible? Also, I see the screws in it, but feel dumb that I can't understand how it is attached, especially thinking how the screws holding the iron on aren't popping through the top.
Excellent although a miter cut demonstration would be helpful .. I am concerned about the length of the miter gauge fence and the distance from the pivot point and potential deflection and accuracy of the cut.
Really cool! Are you able to get a really square crosscut all the time, or is there enough play in the linear slides that you kinda have to hold it in a sweet spot or something?
Love it unfortunately I don’t have this kind of space to play with to do something like it and I wonder over time if sawdust causes any issues with wheels
@@krahnscarpentershophey man, can you take a minute and tell me about that beautiful building? Who was the builder or manufacturer? Dimensions, ceiling height? I really like the clear span , no trusses, would work great for my needs. Also, great lighting! Manufacturer and number of lights you installed. Much appreciated.
I really like the improvements you've made compared to other versions iv seen like this. Would like to see how you calibrated your fence. That's been my biggest hang up in making my own version Just seems like a removable fence like that would be a bitch to make square
It doesnt look like there is enough forward travel to push the fence (like you would still have a couple inches of uncut) to the blade perhaps its just the angle of the video.
Really nice design, have you thought about inlaying two aluminium or HDPE stripes under the two single roller ball supports to prevent the noise when sliding and also avoid the wear of rolling metal on wood that over time will make your sliding table sink out of alignment?
The sliding table dimensions are 2ft wide and 8ft long, I had the bar but you could just search it up on Amazon I'm not sure what they're called exactly, maybe a miter rail
