Building a Miter AND Radial Arm Saw Station in One!

Many an experience has told me the same.

[@FnordOok]

Guilty as charged! Have some "temporary" wire shelving that have been in need of replacing for quite a while...

[@PendragonDaGreat]

@@justinepaula-robilliard It's not so much the amount of actual time, but the intended purpose. You can intend for a solution to be temporary for whatever reason, lack of time or materials to do it properly right this instant is probably the most common one. Then that solution sits, and holds, and you forget or put off changing it and then years down the line you or someone else comes back to it and go "wait, what was/were I/they thinking?"

[@rakmaarcg1553]

Guilty as well, got a temp garden door, aged 10 years now XD. Point is, many teachers also taught me " if it aint broken, no need to fix it" lol

I had to set up a huge woodshop a couple decades ago.. and warehouse floors are never level.. I used a cabinetry trick I built a base on the floor that was about 6 inches high, I started by placing 4x4's flat on the floor every 2 foot.. I painstakingly beveled and trimmed each each one till they were all level to each other & front to back. it took me 3 days my highest point was 2 inches.. when finished I placed plywood over it and built my 30 foot long table on top, I actually had the same setup you are using and for the same reason.. I only used the radial for dado's.. The shop has had more modern tools to replace the older during the years, but the table is still there and never had to be altered.. I love your channel.. Be Blessed and keep up the good work...

[@JamesEdwards780]

Really appreciate an honest build video with all the "fixes". The difference between a craftsman and a noob is that everyone makes mistakes ,,, a craftsman know how to "fix it" and the noob has no idea.

[@eddiehedlund5962]

My God!. It is so refreshing to see other woodworkers like myself assembling things incorrectly occasionally like I do lol. Mistakes are part of any crafts and I do enjoy your humor with everything!

[@Bulldog1653]

I have to say I'm very impressed with this build. The radial arm saw is an INCREDIBLY versatile tool to have in your shop. As the proud owner of 2 of them (1 dedicated to cutting and the other one with a dedicated arbor bit stand) as long as you pay attention to what you're doing and respect the power they have, you can do some pretty incredible things with them.

[@Rage-of-War]

[@ronhansen7717]

I love the fact that you don't hide or edit out your mistakes. I can really relate to that. I have a lot of "Doh!" moments as well. Keep up the good work.

[@patchvonbraun]

My mitre saw (which I bought for my dad 30 years ago for him to do some flooring with, and then he gave it back about 5 years before he died) sits on a workbench that my dad and I built when I was 13. The top is red oak, made from joined 2 x 4s. Heavy as anything but solid. It's a pain to move, but I cannot bear to part with it. I'm turning 60 tomorrow, and it has been a part of my life for a very long time...

[@mr.dahliaking.202]

I am glad you were on, "Technology Connections." From there I discovered your other channel, "Aging Wheels." I was watching one of the bus episodes and my wife was laying beside me. I begin to say, "You know what would." Before I could even finish my sentence she said, "There is no way we are getting a damn bus!" In my defence, I didn't want a bus. I was imagining a fresh food truck that delivers food and other supplies to campsites would be dope. Keep up the great work and please do more stuff with Alec from TC.

[@knightlyjayful]

I don’t do woodworking, but love your approach to problem solving. I am a small run apparel manufacturer and as soon as you put the legs up to show us, I knew what you’d done. Having cut out four pairs of pants with 8 left legs once, I can say this error usually only happens once every ten years or so.

[@CycoWardDrew]

I've used other (10" saws) previously and was pretty surprised with the speed and cutting ability of this Dewalt saw.I have bolted mine to a table to minimize movement which I highly recommend.This is a Great saw kzbin.infoUgkxPeGkHOMe05FySypTOvYumxMn-xi39oRe with a light to see your cutting line (not a laser line).I'd recommend this saw fro anyone looking to upgrade from a 10" miter saw.

[@steveadams4009]

Several years ago on New Yankee Workshop, I watch Norman Abrams build a cabinet very much like yours is the only time I'd seen a chop saw and a radial arm saw on the same cabinet and used for the exact same purpose you're talking about. Ever since then I've thought about building one and just never have perhaps now's the time thank you for reminding me of it

[@krenwregget7667]

I feel radial arm saws are underappreciated these days, they are pretty versatile for all the reasons you mentioned. If you've got the space for one, it's a great addition to the shop.

[@richardflorence3927]

I do agree.. especially when you factor in a molding head for making trim at a miter station... 👌

The sounds of the stop motion (jump motion?) are almost musical in an #asmr sort of way. Especially the segment when you were using the hand saw.

Half the time I want to run up to him and urge him to hold the piece in a slightly safer way or maybe not run his push block right up to the blade but his humility and sense of humor make his videos some of the best. Including all the mistakes and how to fix them makes his videos so much more valuable.. If everyone had that approach we would all have a better journey.
