My shop/server room is one half of our master bathroom. We don't need 'his n hers' sinks, and never used the 'roman tub' which is just a regular tub that flares about 4 inches in the middle, with space wasting framework around it. We never used that bathroom for bathing at all. So I built my server rack over the existing tub, the shower stall became my pc carcass storage, and my workbench is the maple plywood that makes the top of the rack. I still have empty air that needs to become storage, but I'll never cut wood in there - even with dust collection it would be death for my servers.

I bought one recently and made a couple upgrades: built a much larger frame around it with a 16x20 surface, to which I applied a plastic grid; and replaced the blade with one from Micro-Mark. Note of caution: when removing the blade be careful to turn the nut CLOCKWISE to remove it, and do so very carefully to avoid stripping it and the arbor--they are both made of fairly soft metal.

The fact it has a "finger" (lol) guard for the blade is actually really great - most of the cheap ones you can find are literally just a block with a table saw blade sticking out the top with no safety features. I'm gonna have to go through your whole channel now to see if you review any other tiny woodshop tools because you are excited as hell and I love that.

Gonna keep it though, 'cause it might come in handy for craft stuff - plus the cute factor! UPDATE: Ah, wait!!!

Stay away from plastic body components like large connectors, and super long cuts - and it barely bogs down at all. The mighty-mite is redeemed!

for scale work, the material you are putting through it would be equivalent to two inch material on a regular table saw. Look at how much saw blade you are taking on with the material as you would a 1/2" plywood on an 10" blade. so basically, it would be best for 1/8" material at best.

You are not allowing for true scaling ratios, so your statement is incorrect. Scaling is not a simple ratio in this case, it is logarithmic . The smaller saw is actually more powerful than 1/15th the power of a regular table saw. I think the main problem with this is the blade, but you are right, it will not rip balsa wood thicker than 3/8" and a large table saw will not rip 8 inch thick balsa wood.

I've seen these used as an alternative when cutting fret slots in a fingerboard for a guitar. They have made a small sled that uses the sides of the table instead of the slots in the table top. Uses a 4" jewelers blade for fret slotting. People are just trying to get around having to pay $150 for a fret slotting blade from stew-mac. Or $140 for a precision miter box with a pull saw with a thin kerf.

I inherited something similar. Tried to use it once. The blade guard was loose, hit the blade and exploded. It actually walks around if it’s not clamped down. Without the guard, it’s now absolutely terrifying. It’s basically a hobby saw for cutting microwood. 1/16” plywood and such.

Lacking a table saw, not being the most dexterous with a skill saw, and after having my jigsaw blade keep getting stuck melting it's way through the cut, I almost bought one of these just for making a few cuts in quarter inch acrylic. But my inner voice told me if I had even a diminutive underpowered 'table saw,' I'd just want a real one. I ponied up the $200 for an entry level table saw and I'm glad I did. This video just confirms it. The $40 I didn't spend on this bought me a couple of cheap but serviceable crosscut blades.

I do keep one of these micro saws in my service van, strapped on top of my larger Makita table saw. This micro saw works perfectly with quarter round shoe molding on floor jobs and other lite PVC molding projects. Rather than lugging in the whole table saw or miter saw set up, I have this micro saw screwed down to a 12" x "12" x 3/4" scrap of plywood. I just grab this under one arm, and bring it right to the floor of the site without weigning me down. I do a lot of bathroom & kitchen floors, so most of the time, I can carry scraps of molding to the site to finish the molding around vanities, etc. As long as you play with it beforehand and know its limits, it possibly could have a useful purpose for the right jobs.

I see similar saws on Amazon. They're marketed to dollhouse furniture makers and balsa wood modelers, ultralight duty stuff. HF seems to just badged a generic one unaware that it's for those purposes.

Just made for tabletop craft projects using soft wood. A German company makes tabletop power tools that are very precise but are quite expensive. It comes with a rip fence, tilting blade & adjustable miter gauge. Costs as much as a portable contractor saw.

Excellent video! When you first showed it, I was thinking...wow, I need one of those! I live in a small apartment with no space for a regular table saw. I use my little 9" bandsaw for cutting everything, and it's really annoying not being able to rip to a consistent width, to crosscut beyond a very limited length, or to be able to make dados. I thought this tiny saw would be my solution, but you quickly showed me that was not the case haha.
