@@paulreader1777 The finger joint mode would be fairly straight forward and just a pre-calculated code based on the size of the joints and blade kerf. Looks like fence is "F", Blade height is "H", and blade angle is "A". Example,, If you wanted 1/4" joints, then start the gcode with the fence at home position.. Assuming blade kerf is exactly 0.125" (likely not). Hit "Start" Fence stays at home, blade comes up with a gcode, lets say G1 H0.25 Cut hit "next" on the screen, Gcode G1 F0.125 ;16.23910175 steps - Which will need to be rounded because the stepper just isn't that accurate even with microstepping. Cut hit "next" on the screen, Gcode G1 F0.50 (Assuming absolute positioning) Cut hit "next" on the screen, Gcode G1 F0.625 Cut Repeat.. This will likely translate differently into the python code it's currently running on. - I have not written in python... but have some knowledge of gcode and marlin and steppers, etc.. So steps for fence to move 0.125" would be (stp_per_inch_f)*0.125 = 16.23910175 steps. defined

Another way to “re-zero” would be to have a solid fixed stop at the far end of travel, or maybe a hole on the surface with a pin you can drop in and push the fence to, so that it acts as a constant index so after manual control, push the fence to the “index stop” and just hit a simple “recalibrate” button which lets the machine know “the fence is at the index stop which is a known distance”. Could take the human error out of the equation. I know you could be more accurate in a much more complex manner, but that seems like a simple way. I also know from woodworking experience that the scale on the table saw is almost never spot on, and usually wiggles and shifts over time. It’s a big shot of luck that yours seems to be dead on. Super cool project though! Love the idea.

Since this isn't the original fence, I wonder if he changed out the scale too. Although, it would also be affected by whatever the thickness of the blade is, since you can buy different blade thicknesses, or even a dado set. Expanding on your idea, if he were ever to want to use a dado set, he could use your recalibrate function to first move the fence to the edge of the raised blade, and then zero the saw there. That way he could get a perfectly accurate cut without having to worry about accounting for the kerf width, and also be able to perfectly set the edge of a rabbet without having to account for the rabbet's width.

Furniture paste wax (Miwax orJohnson's paste wax) is what you want. It's like waxing your car though, every so often you will need to reapply. If I will not be using my table saw for a while I will spray it down in silicon spray, wd-40 makes a spray but cooking spray is made from food grade silicon. Be aware paint hate silicon, so clean your saw thoroughly before using it again. Paste wax is fantastic because doesn't stick around after sanding and finishing. Obviously what one is attempting to do is keep moister off of the cast steel. You are the man BTW. This stuff is so beyond me. It is fun to watch.

Really cool project. I’ve been thinking of doing something similar, but with just the fence. A few suggestions for functionality: Homing switches for your three motions. Absolute motion function. Incremental motion function. A blade selection (assuming you have different sized blades). A dado function. You would need the blade width value. This would be to subtract from the overall width of your dado width value. A nibble function for above dado function. I would add a blade width overlap % and a tolerance amount to adjust the dado slot slop. A lot of the above functions can be used for finger joints and tenons. Then you can mount a router table on the other side of the fence and use the same code. I made a finger joint machine with a stepper motor controlled by an arduino, so a lot of these issues came up. Also, I suspect that the blade height is not linear. This is under the assumption that the height adjust is on a trunnion. You might have to see what the trunnion angle is at the bottom and then use a sin calc of the angle to determine your height adjustment from there.

Thank you!!! I'm not the only one that bites off more than I SHOULD chew, and then OBSESSES for hours/days/weeks to get it right! (With a lot of "Why am I doing this?" along the way!) Curious about your MIG welder... and was that flux core you were cleaning up from those beads? Another great multi-disciplinary project!!!

It was flux core wire. And your welcome lol

@Jeremy Fielding, my guess is you are a self-taught welder. It looks like you were “pushing” all your welds. There’s an old ditty, “if there’s slag, you drag”, but then again, “grinding and paint makes you the welder you ain’t”. Good to see you coding, once you go down that path you start thinking about automating everything. I know I did all through my welding class.

I so liked your comment why you built a Plasma cutter so big, because of the challenge. ( secondly you don't 'have to build a second) Great Idea.

Johnson Paste Wax is a good finish for cast iron woodworking tools, like your table saw. For metalworking tools, you'd use a light machine oil, but you don't want that all over the wood. The paste wax hardens up quickly, won't stick, and also provides a nice, slide-y surface for moving work pieces around on. Love the automation, and your ingenuity! You look totally unafraid to just rip it down and build something new. Fantastic work

There was a company that offered a CNC router table for a few years, but they ceased production before I could get one. It was incredibly cool.

Very cool idea. I'm not sure i would have gone that far but it did put a thought in my head. I think I have found my next project. I'm only interested in one thing however. I want to make an auto sled. The sled will have sliders and easily removable. The sled will be an auto feed. With holes all over it for work piece hold downs. Clamp a small piece of wood and let it feed into the cut. May even design different length sleds to all fit the same feed. This will keep my hands out of the way on small things. Love it. Good work.

I used the same cleaning agent. VINEGAR ! It took major amount off and then took my sander and used 150 grit and then 320 grit. Cleaned it again and then used Buthers wax to seal it. Wood slides on the table like shit thru a tin horn ! Every now and again just touch it up. I also did the whole saw After wiping down all parts and waxed the whole saw. Fine dust hardly holds onto it. I also added a chute below to catch a majority of sawdust. Love watching your content ! Keep up the good work !

pretty sure this means you're no longer a maker, but an inventor.

This is such a great video! I'm a professional coder and I still get those "FUCK YAH IT WORKS" moments when I solve something new. It's such a great feeling. Time to get something to eat.

This is incredible, amazing work. Our large SCM panel saw at the workshop has a motor cntroled fence, when it gets to 200mm from the blade, it stops and you have to hold the fence start button and it goes half speed until its reached say for example 7mm. I think its a safety function so it doesn't hit the blade

Coding isn't really my thing but I find it very interesting and potentially fun to experiment with. I love the automated table saw and the flexibility of having stepper motors to control the fence, saw, and saw height is cool. I've never seen anything like this, and I'm a huge fan of automation. Great build.

Bro, when you explained your general lack of interest in starting small and aiming low when learning new things, you drove home one of the reasons I love your channel: psychologically we're basically the same guy.
