If you buy them, make sure you buy the one that allows you to bump it down. Mine does not have this feature, and they are a pain to lower down for adjustment. For sure worth owning a set.

In my lifetime of building, when installing upper cabinets I place a piece of 3/4 plywod on the lowers then stand two 18'' pieces of 2X4's on the countertop and hold the cabinet up against the wall to screw them in. There is always scrap plywood and 2X4's on the site

Just an FYI the Enjoywood version of this jig has a bracket for dust extraction & also the drilling attachment twists & locks into place. I think the Enjoywood is currently selling on Banggood for just under £40 so compared to the Blum Ecodrill jig a bargain. All my kitchen door size doors i do on my pillar drill but tall wardrobe doors are definitely easier on thr bench with a jig like this.

Brought the 20 inch Gingersnap direct from Bobbin. Came badly packaged, scratched up and all the issues you mention in this review existed and more! Definitely style over substance. Everything cheaply made, front forks were wider than the wheel spindle by an inch. And this bike is very heavy (steel). Returned for a refund. Instead brought a Raleigh Pop, aluminium frame, much lighter weight, v brakes, all-round higher quality. That fact the bobbin arrived damaged has worked out to be a blessing.

The difficulty in raising the blade looks like it's caused by the shaft that the handwheel is attached to, could be bent.

I have also just purchased this jig and it arrived yesterday. Big Brother KZbin has clearly been alerted by my cookies and threw this review up in my feed LOL I thought your review was very clear, balanced and thorough. I have unpacked my jig although have not yet used it but can confirm that they have clearly updated it in the meantime as the drill holder twists and locks into the base - an improvement that I am sure you would have appreciated! :) Also, the Forstner bit seems to be covered in some sort of lacquer (presumably to prevent corrosion?) which may be responsible for an impression of bluntness for you? I intend to clean mine with thinners before first use so I am curious to see how mine cuts. Overall my first impressions of the jig are very positive - especially that I paid the equivalent of 31GBP for mine! Good design, robust and precise construction and they even included 2 little spanners to adjust the toggle clamp ;) Cheers from Poland! PS some other lazy YT reviewers have been cribbing from your review IMHO. They make some points that I only recall hearing in yours ;) I guess that makes you an influencer of influencers haha

I bought one of these second hand for 20quid recently. The height adjustment wheel was very stiff going down and felt as though it would break. I took it apart, cleaned it up and added a couple of washers to the threaded part as it had worn and the original washers, they were mangled. It works fine now. The thread of the wheel pushes and pulls a triangular piece of metal that raises the whole motor, blade, shaft and mount. Theres a lot of weight on that tiny little wheel, it's a poor quality design and will be ripe for breakages after being used for a while. I am yet to set the saw up properly for accuracy but it seems a poweful and smooth motor with a good size blade.

What a great review/overview! I just bought this same (but different brand) jig off Amazon, and as others have said, no documentation included so it was nice to get confirmation on the spacing, etc. Your production is top notch, editing is great, no annoying music and just the right cadence. P.S. the version I purchased off Amazon has corrected spelling on the front of the jig ("distance")
@fisheatingbagel406 ай бұрын
The bit needs to be cleaned before using. It's covered with a protective goo that prevents it from ejecting chips cleanly. That's why it started cutting better after using it for a bit.

cut the grass first take then scarify may have to do it a couple of times going in different directions does look frightening after and you can apply grass seed on the on the worst looking patches also lawn feed ,it will all come back , eventually youl get good at it do once a year ,youl get good at it and have a good looking lawn.

Thanks for the clear, honest review. I've just bought this jig from Banggood, along with a replacement drill bit for £46. You will probably have worked this out by now, as your review is a year old, but just in case you have not... You can actually use the jig to set the position of the hinge bracket on the cabinet. I suggest you take a look at Casual DIY, who reviewed the jig recently.

I was reviewing this same thing and others like it with a different name. Some of the issues that I didn't like was where the arbor for the 35mm drill bit has to be held in by hand when drilling. They could have used two bolts to secure the arbor. The other two issues were with the slop in the arbor for the 35mm drill bit and for the small drill bit. And of course, a dust extraction would have been nice. The only thing that I liked about it was that it was made out of aluminum instead of plastic. Have a great evening!

I bought the saw today. I just adjust things to work right. Be one with your tool 😁 I greased and oiled the inside elements that raise the blade and it now goes up and down fine. Compressed air will blow away build up or dust in the future and oil again. Plastic covers on bearings are in the bin. Always check fence with tape measure and that your angles are right with digital angle finder. And that the blade is square with the bed etc. The L brackets are for screwing/bolting it to the floor is my guess because the holes line up. Some tresles and away ya go, to cut some wood. im happy with this wee table saw, be positive. Adjust whats needed. Most cutting tools need a wee adjustment.

Could've easily been made more sturdy with two modifications. Which for something like this... well, they're basic and absolutely necessary (any saw with spindly legs, really). X braces on the long side of the saw, between the mounting bolts with the aid of 1mm flat stock (i would've made them with adjustable holes and upgraded the bolts to something more sturdy to give you the security of giving them the beans to really lock the assembly in place once squareness is achieved) one (or two for extra rigidity) X brace on the nearest side as well. This brace doesn't need to take the full brunt of the push, so the tie rods used for false ceilings that have an eyelet on one side and threads on the other could be used if they are joined in the middle with a piece of metal that has its corners bent and cut, such that a nut can be held captive in there for the 4 tie rods to be tensioned with (common practice for certain types of tie rods, but made DIY). Finally, on the braces that come with the saw, a piece of MDF (preferably HDF, which for example could be high traffic parquet pieces, jointed and screwed down with tech screws) to make a shelf and on that shelf weights added. Be they cheapo cast iron lifting weights or a few plastic bins with sand inside. There's various other mods that could be done, but as is, for what it is... it's a decent unit, me thinks.

...and for the overall final statement I'd like to add, that for the amount of money of this saw, there is no other one wich comes with this amount of real steel metal. And as a owner of a Scheppach tku from the 80s I have to admit, that the amount of adjustment know how and jigs you need to learn collect over time is quite a lot, before you are able to perform narrow toleances - 1/10 mm is a reproducible dimension for this saw concept. 😉
