Table Saw Improvements | Workstation Build | Part 1

Welcome back for my newest video. This time i am making a series about my old table saw. Wich i will turn into a multifunctional workstation. This table saw series will be 5 videos long. Starting with a new table saw top with a much larger size. So that i can cut larger sheets of plywood without getting in tricky situations. After the modifycation i still can cut to a maximum of 70mm hight.
The materials that i used for my table saw improvement are:
1x 9mm osb size 800 x 1200 mm
2x 20x60x1200 mm timber
3x 20x60x760 mm timber
4x m6x20 bolt and nut

[@billynnc1998]

Missing the final 2 videos hope you are okay. last updates was 4 years ago

Hello my friend. Good idea. A large table for the table saw. The improved Saw workstation will provide a very useful environment. Thank you for the nice project. I look forward to both parts. Thank you for sharing. Greetings....

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Thank you very much!

[@Poor_Mans_DIY]

Looking really nice. I like all the workspace you have added to your table saw. Looking forward to the rest of the series

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Thank you both :)

[@timmerbedrijf986]

Awesome buddy. Looking forward to the rest of this project! 👍

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Thank you very much!

[@woodworker9508]

Wow that's really awesome mate! Great idea. Never thought about that!

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Thanks man!

[@Garylivingstone]

Interested in this One small comment top would be a lot smother using plywood Keep the rest of this build going I need to do something similar

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Thanks mate. That's what i wantedvto do at first to. But the advantage from osb next to that it is cheap. It also has some jind of varnish on the top wich makes it very smooth. Plywood on the other hand is not. Thanks for watching 👍

[@andymiller2009]

Excellent video.

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Thanks Andy!

[@grandpapipermike2921]

What company sells or make the L-square you are using in the video?

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Thank you! The company is called wolfcraft!

[@mikparker2572]

What a great video. I was wondering, I have a medium sized table saw on its own stand but I am considering attaching it to an old saw bench. Would this top still work on that? It’s a similar size saw to yours but its not on long legs. Just wondered. Again great video and now I am going to look at part two. Have subscribed 👏🏼👏🏼

[@pierrecolin7856]

good job ! i would nt have use OSB but nice one, i'm gonna do the same

[@kencross25]

Enjoyed your conversion very much. You gave me great inspiration to covert my four-month-old Dewalt DWE7491RS Contractor Saw into a cabinet saw. I used flatted ½" sheet cast iron plate (thicker than most true high-end cabinet saws) 31½ x 44" (support with adjustable round steel tubes) to construct my top and hard Maple for cabinet. It turned out spectator. Thank you.

[@PirHana]

Danger: kickback

[@expandwithanthony]

So simple. thank you

[@panfull]

It's so refreshing seeing someone do this with true to life tools and materials. If I had a million dollars of tools I wouldn't be making this. Beautiful work with what you have

[@AndyCPugh]

I'm definitely going to follow this series.

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Thanks Andy!! 👍

[@TheGrantAlexander]

Bigger is better as they say! But I am with Alberto #JustSayNoToOSB

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

🤣🤣 thanks buddy! But i'm keeping it this way!!! 😜

[@FennahMakes]

Great solution in getting more workspace!!

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Thanks buddy 👍👍

[@RBurwell]

Nice work. I'm here because I'm looking to make a few improvements to my own saw. I would fit a riving knife if I was you. Stops the wood from pinching onto the back of the blade and kicking back.

[@davidsneddon2242]

This is a REAL DIY project. Back to absolute basic in both materials and technique, love it. Great to see a young guy actually using a hand saw. Smashing series DSW, excellent.

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Thanks David!

[@MoscaWoodworking]

it's a huge job!! my only suggestion is to switch from osb to melamine. I Know it's more expansive, but it's smoother and this is a job that remains for a very longtime

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Thanks buddy. That is het better option indeed but i keep it like this for now. I can change it any time. Thanks for watching!

[@TheGrantAlexander]

I agree with this guy. Anything but OSB #SayNoToOSB

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

@@TheGrantAlexander yess OSB!! 😄

[@thijs199]

I actually dissasembled my entire saw. And I think I can make it so that I have a top of 22mm thick plywood, but the problem is the raising of the motor, I have to make a hole in the top surface so the motor can raise all the way. Not that hard, not ideal either though, because that's exactly where you want the strenght

[@HighCaliberCraftsman]

Interested to see the next installment! Maybe a built in router table?

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Thanks. Yes i am thinking about a built in router. Need to figure iut how i am going to do that 😄

[@RonzillaRocks-yi5yo]

What is the proper term for that L square with the holes in it you start using at 3:43? I've been needing one of those, but don't know what to call it so I can buy one.

[@GrumpysWorkshop4]

Looking good so far.

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Thanks mate! 👍

[@davenhunter99]

Is there a reason for using such a crappy particle board top?? But overall it's funny I was just working on my own table saw you gave me a great idea thanks!

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Thanks! i liked t at the time. will change it soon!

[@JustMightDIY]

Nice job! Looking forward to following the series as you build it out.

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Awesome! Thanks for watching 😁

[@karlpopewoodcraft]

Definitely be watching this with interest. One thing mate will you be adding the riving knife back on? As I remember yours was quite tall preventing the use of some sleds, I cut mine down with a grinder. Looking forward to the fence set up! ☺️

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Thanks buddy! Yes the knive will be back on. Need to cut it off and make a zero clearance insert. Thanks for watching!

[@debbieshelton8795]

That is some rough plywood, cdx, for a table saw top. Are you going to cover it. Other wise great idea for my small table saw improvement.

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

It works good this way. I chose osb because of the costs. Plywood will work better i am sure

[@hfbosman1801]

I like what you're doing. I'll try plywood for the top. Isn't 9mm too thin for the top? Only asking....

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Plywood is better indeed. Is is thin but i rests on the tabletop and has support underneath. I mostly use this as a work table now 😉 i can easily stand on it

[@LonghornWorkshop]

Nice, waiting for part 2

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Thanks buddy!

[@Chris-vc1dh]

did you put new table on old?

[@KirstiePervinDavies]

Nice 🙌🏻 some great space for large material. Interested to see how the OSB surface is like with material run across it over time. Now to watch part two 😁

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Thanks! yeah me to. i think it will hold just fine :)

[@jaimealves3742]

You can always use plywood or MDF for that part, I did one based in this video and it's rolling perfect

[@howdoyoudoityourself]

Nice improvement, look forward to the next video.

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Thank you Jos!

[@EPKJR]

Can’t wait to see the rest... great idea.

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Thanks Eddie 👍

[@21thTek]

Improvement its good, but your sander is glorious !!

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Thank you sir! 👍👍

[@Suhag01]

How did you square edge of the top with the blade?

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

I used a large square for that and marked the positions

[@thijs199]

you lose cutting height this way

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

yeah 9mm. i would never use the full 90mm hight

[@247VideosNL]

Follow!

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

thanks

[@lancep9394]

I did something similar. For some reason it is high in the middle. Right close to the blade

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

could be that your top is not flat. mine was a little bend aswell.

[@lancep9394]

@@Dutchshedwoodshop yeah. Put a straight edge on it. Peaks at cut in top where blade is. Don't know what to do with it

[@dantheman3k]

how will you tilt the blade to 45 degrees now?

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Thank you Dan. Check my third video of this table saw project 👍😜

[@dawin6710]

This would take forever to do a truly square crosscut.

[@jeffbassett3174]

Did you give up? Wiating for episode 4 and 5 :)

[@ltamkei]

How do you make sure that the top was square to the blade?

[@simonkarismawan9060]

Waiting for second upgrade

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Hopefully this friday! 👍👍

[@martinwolf5957]

Cool work, top. 👍 👍 👍 Liebe Grüße Martin

[@Dutchshedwoodshop]

Danke martin!! 💪💪

[@ghavinakbarani9638]

perfect, i like osb

[@kieranjones3696]

Osb is the most nasty material for this :(
