Bought one in June 2024 and the casting for the miter is off by 1.5 degrees and there is no way to correct it so all angle cuts are off. Home Depot checked their other stock and all had the same angle issue. Returned it for refund.

I really appreciate you for creating this video. The R4514 has been discontinued!!! I cannot find the table saw at all on the Ridgid site. I was searching for parts on 9Mar2024 in Alberta, Canada. There is no lifetime warranty when they stop making the product. Very disappointed about not being able to get parts. Again, thank you so much.

Thanks for the quick review...since you have owned it for 2 years now, would you buy it again? I am thinking of buying this same table saw but have read mixed reviews on it. Once you squared the fence have you had to go back periodically and tweak the fence any to keep it square? Thanks again!

Unfortunately for you, you got a defective plunge base. Cause that 1/4'' gap you have with it, I dont on mine. Mine is tight to the top, no play at all. If I were you I would contact the company, cause you truly have a defective plunge base! I have two, cause I do have one on my router table, that I bought cheaper with only the fix base. It works great for my router table and it works really good on my wood working. And as you said which is true, the wrench is crap, get yourselves a better wrench for it, theres too much play and you can risk damaging the collet nut after a while. So change that thing for something better. There are better routers out there of course. But for simple DIYers on a budget, The Skil is a good way to go. Thanks for your video and Good Luck

I bought this and returned it after a week. The lack of rack and pinion fence and the angle markers being off are enough to frustrate anybody halfway serious
@diamondwoodworks6373
@diamondwoodworks6373 Жыл бұрын
Granted I no longer have the saw, but the angle markers never bothered me. IMO if you’re half way serious you would rely on the angle markers and use a digital gauge. As far as the fence, the rack and pinion system is definitely better as far as holding square but they do shift a bit more as they get older and you find yourself not trusting running longer/bigger stock through.

i had one. it’s the biggest piece of crap. do not waste your money or you WILL waste your time and you WILL be very frustrated. horrible tool. took forever to get it aligned and still not right. raising and lowering the blade was “horrible”. first 1 1/2” was ok, then it got real hard. changing the angle was a joke. you have to gravi it from the front and the back and string arm it to love. if you even loosen the snag rod just a little, and locked it down, it would move. that’s dangerous. you should have to tight with your tools like that. the top is not flat. i took the time to swap one out, and that top was also not flat. it also failed when it comes to cut quality. get a load of this…..the blade would move from side to side. SAW MARKS EVERYWHERE!!! ridgid should pay us to even consider using that junk. it’s always the same young jerk that answers the phone in the complaints department so you won’t get anywhere with him. he doubts everything you say as if we have never used a tablesaw before and we are making up what we say. as if their table saw is good quality. he should be fired and arrested for falsely representing a product. ridgid does make some good tools, but they really dropped the ball on this job site saw. save yourself.

As mentioned in a previous comment, I no longer have this saw but I never had any really negative comments. It did take a good while to square up everything, and never got the fence at a perfect 90 to the table surface. However, I understood that stamped steel and aluminum would never be “perfect.” I also never had issues with any of the adjustments. Even if you spend almost double the price of this saw, you still won’t get a table that is flat. The Delta 36-725 is considered one of the best values, and it’s cast iron top is .01 out of tolerance… and it’s milled cast iron! There’s pros and cons to everything. The best saw in its class (DeWalt 7491) has a much worse miter adjustment and a few other issues. Again, without paying $2-3,000 for a saw… you’re going to have to compromise. Thanks for the comment and sorry to hear about your experiences.

I made this cart yesterday (Oct23)and did exactly that. I used a large hole saw and cut a hole in the back. I placed it in line with the exhaust. I also applied a muffler I bought on amazon. I may add a few neatly designed narrow slots along the back & side to help vent the heat from the vacuum. Only downside to this design, is it's large and takes up a lot of space. I made it for a Ridgid 14 Gal. I wish I made it for a smaller vacuum.

To make the dado plate, did you notch out with a jigsaw or keep running it through the table saw?
@diamondwoodworks6373
@diamondwoodworks6373 2 жыл бұрын
The dado plate was actually way easier to make. After making the zero clearance I knew where to remove material from underneath, and took care of that with a chisel. Once it was laying flat on the saw just slapped my dado on it and slowly raised the blade. No need to notch anything as the riving knife is removed when using the dado stack.
