It looks good. The only problem I see is when he has completely passed the blade, but before pulling the gripper back around, he is leaning with a outstretched arm right over the spinning blade (although I'm not sure how this could be overcome).

I'm pretty new to woodworking and have been using a GRR-Ripper for several months now and absolutely love it. Not only does it make using a table saw safer, the difference in the quality of cuts I get when making a rip cut are greatly improved when I use it. I almost never get any tool marks or burn marks along the cut when I use the Ripper. I can't recommend this tool enough!

@kyleolson8977 4 дня назад

"Safe Rip Index" - What I've been doing for some time is marking the center foot and end feet of the grr-rpper with a black marker. The problem is that I have to be higher up to see the foot marking and parallax is an issue when because your body is to the left. The index is a great improvement, although it won't fix the parallax.

They should make the dropdown pusher a template (for drilling the holes) + holder (aligning the sacrificial piece) setup so you can screw in a sacrificial piece of wood and not have to ruin the plastic part.

@SlimSavageBlanco День назад

They actually do believe it or not. I bought the gravity heel a couple of years ago and in the instructions it shows you how to do exactly what you just described. I made a couple and my original yellow heel is still in perfect condition. Very easy to make from their template too. I'm not sure why he doesn't mention that in the video. Hold on and I'll find a link that shows you what I'm talking about.

@Anthony-H 4 дня назад

I have a Grr-ripper and use it all the time, but there is a glaring design flaw: it isn't very grr-rippy. Maybe it's because I have a contractor table saw and the top has a slightly gritty texture, it isn't super smooth like on a cabinet table saw with a machined top. A lot of people complain about the grip on these things. All the fancy do-dads and attachments are neat, but I wish it did better at performing it's main function.

Hi, my name is Chad. I do some woodworking and I have a question. The hardest thing I come across is pricing. I would like to know what you would charge ballpark it to make two boxes one was 25 x 22 x 22 and I 45 all the corners it has no end woodgrain showing at all then the second box is 25 x 30 x 22. This one’s not seamless sanded, flush trimmed round over all the corners, put a pre-stain wood conditioner and stained it I spent about 50 hours five very long days. What would you price that at? and if it would help to see pictures of it, I have some if you could let me know be greatly appreciated.

TThe problem I have with the gripper is that it doesn’t always grip the material being cut. The gripper slides on the wood. Now maybe I need to wax my table saw so it a bit more slippery.

@michiganracer1181 2 дня назад

I drank the kool aide and bought it finally. The one thing I failed to notice is when using this and cutting material 1 1/2" or thinner you can't use this with your blade all the way up. This goes against table saw safety basics which you should always run your blade all the way up so it's cutting down into the wood. Running the blade low tends to drive the wood back at you, not really a fan. I'll probably go back to my push sticks for most and use this thing for the odd thin stuff. It's just too short, kinda a big miss IMO

@pgtips4240 13 часов назад

Here is why I think he is wrong about using a trusty push stick. He says the wood will wander away from the fence if the push stick is positioned too close to the fence side. He also says a feather board will not work because it does not control the cut side. Firstly a push stick should be positioned correctly on the stock and this is not the fault of the push stick but something a user gets wrong. Secondly a feather board absolutely does work but even better is a 2nd push stick to keep the stock down and against the fence. The riving knife is there to stop the timber veering off course, they work very well in doing this. Anyone who does not use a riving knife is at risk of kickback no matter what. Here is the problems with the push block. Forgetting to adjust the block when the rip width is changed. The push block requires full arm and body committal and if something goes wrong your hand and forearm will be over the saw blade which is very dangerous. I believe these push blocks have the greatest number of incidents reported among all types of ripping facilities. They are well known for being dangerous. People will watch this video and believe they are watching a safe product and as a result will get hurt or worse. Long push sticks prioritise fingers slightly above controlling the wood through the cut and this is imho the correct order of priority. Sadly most woodworkers prioritise control of the stock being ripped over keeping fingers. This is just wrong. I know you will most likely delete my comment and as a result even more people will get hurt. It’s nothing personal, but the product you are promoting is without any doubt highly dangerous and surely safety has to be more important than making a profit. Surely!?
