the presentation is well prepared, but I want to see sawdust. Let's cut some plywood or hardwood. The PROOF is in the cut piece.

[@EKEinc]

Like the new look😉 Your products are even reaching the Caribbean nowadays. And holding up very well in our 85% humidity and salty climate. For people undecided whether to have benchdogs products shipped around the globe? DO IT! Customer service is above and beyond.

[@asderven]

Thank you Ralph, your system is amazing. On my mft top I messed up the alignment. I used the reference hole thingimajik that is provided for making holes at specific intervals. Aligned the opposite end as best as I could. The quad hinge aligned beautifully with the fence. Even with my ineptitude and mistakes, the system cuts beautifully. I am really happy with the system. Alhamdullilah it arrived all in one piece to Pakistan. The packing was great 👍.

Tolle Produkte. Schlechter Vertrieb. Wenn du keinen bock auf Zoll hast dann such dir einen Partner in Europa, oder Verkauf über Amazon 😢

Hi, We do have dealers in the Netherlands and Sweden. We are also in conversation with a German supplier.

Is bechdog tools available in the USA?

[@Benchdogtools]

Yes we ship from the uk.

Very nice Ralph. 🙌🏻

Benchdog team, whatever happened to a EU store? I dread the taxes on a new order, but I really do love your products and would like to expand my collection!

[@Benchdogtools]

Hi the EU store wasn’t as easy as we expected it to be with regard to transport and other costs associated with it as well as getting new releases there when we release them. But let me give you a breakdown of why buying from the uk not costing you as much than the EU. 1. The prices in the EU were 10% more to cover logistics, labour and storage etc 2. We don’t charge you VAT on our prices if it leaves the UK but you will have to pay your countries vat rat when it’s shipped. There is no getting around the vat. You actually paid the VAT when we had the EU store. 3. there is a courier charge which is about 15euros but if you take away the 10% you were getting charged extra in the EU this balances this fee In most cases I’ve not heard of duties being added. So when I did the calculation when we moved it back to the UK the customer was better off.

[@Sheane]

Thank you for the awesome reply! Looking forward to adding to my collection soon!

Great vid Ralph

Thank you

[@petelowe74]

Brilliant video, Ralph! I had a very very slight play in my Mft top and so used the calibration slot. Such a minor adjustment but at least it’s bang on square! Loving the “flagging” (made up collective word) of flag stops by the way 👍👍

[@benchdogs-tools]

Great to hear, Peter. Well, when you're next in the market for a new top, you know where to go. Flagging, I thought you were on about my cold, lol.

[@LeoDodier]

Hello Ralph, thanks for the great video. I just received 2000mm fence and 450mm square. I am absolutely amazed at how well you packed them and the short time it took to get from you to meet in Hawaii! Thank you. One question, what would you use the right hand fence system for?

[@Benchdogtools]

Hi, Leo. I hope you are well. I'm glad you are happy with the products. The right-hand fence allows for a few things. 1. Helps with narrow cut rips; if you need some strips of, say, 50mm, this can be pretty difficult as they are narrower than the track to get a consistent measurement from; the Fence allows for waste side cuts, so when calibrated, you can do repeatable thin strips without any issues and accurately. 2. This allows waste side cut support; if you have a long sheet you wish to cut in half, you have a large piece out there with no support and potentially slip when cutting; this gives full support on both sides of the track.

[@LeoDodier]

@@Benchdogtools Thank you Ralph!

[@peternatoli2555]

Hi Ralph I could not see what you were doing to the fence stays. May I ask for close up of everything you do with slower commentary please?

[@Benchdogtools]

Hi Peter. sorry can you elaborate on the fence stays? do you mean flag stops or Fence dogs? Happy to produce another video on this.

[@peternatoli2555]

@@Benchdogtools hi Ralph It was mainly the Bench dogs which I was interested in. Can the fence move from side to side whilst attached to its dogs loosly? Also, is there for and aft movement in the fence whilst attached to their dogs loosely? Thank you Peter

[@moesawad]

Just ordered the fence 2.1 and the hinge system. Won’t have time to build my top for a month though. Does the fence have go in front of the hinge or can it use the same row of dog holes as the hinge? Thank you.

[@Benchdogtools]

Hi, Yes, with our tops, we have precisely measured and made the holes so they are perfectly in line with the Plate on the mft. The added fence dog holes also allow the support dog to be placed, giving full support to the underrail.

[@moesawad]

@@Benchdogtoolswhen will the mft tops be added to the site and will they be shippable?

[@davemaynard3826]

What’s the best way to calibrate the right hand fence?

[@ralphmignano215]

I missed this part, but I will make another video soon. But I would use a 20mm Benchdogs Setup block with the blade down on your track saw ( please ensure you unplug the saw ). Place the block beside the blade and then slide the right-hand fence to the 20mm block

[@davemaynard3826]

@@ralphmignano215 magic. Thanks Ralph

My right hand support starts at 4 and 2cm on the scale which confuses me greatly??!

Do you sell the work table and or just the MFT tops?

I think that it is a Festool MFT.

I was about to order the aluminium extrusion to build a table that I've designed myself. Will wait if Bencedogs might be bringing out their own table.
