Nice upgrade! I have considered something similar for my Makita saw but mine is installed in a bench so the gripper at the back would need a bit of a modification.

[@christofix]

normally I will build a new workbench within a few weeks to integrate my table saw. Then this fence can no longer be used. I already have an idea how I will make a new one. You will need to watch the video for the performance. But hey, don't tell anyone. This is a spoiler for my future videos lol

[@TheWoodYogi]

A great upgrade :) I need to do something similar with the cheap table saw I have. The fence has always been a problem, although I clamp a piece of wood against it for support, it's not so convenient to change for cut quickly ॐ

[@christofix]

With this simple solution you will fix that problem my friend! it took me a few hours to make this

[@mosschops]

I made one of these - more or less - and it has been a game changer. I'm a complete novice, but this fence has increased my confidence and ability to rip 2.4m boards by a factor of 10. I'm no longer worried about subsequent cuts going more and more out of alignment. Thanks for the great design!

[@christofix]

Thank you, my friend. It is indeed a great update on the original fence. I'm thinking about how can even improve it more. If I'm able to do so, you will see it here on my channel. Thanks for watching.

[@anthonyarmstrong3255]

Hi Chris, made this in 90 mins this afternoon from solid beech off-cuts that I had from another project. It works a treat! I machined the timber so accurately that I didn't have to use captive bolts in the top of the aluminium rail, it just push fits very snugly. It is now rock solid with no flex at all. Thanks again! I might make the cross cut sled now and maybe beef up the mitre slide mechanism.

Nice upgrade. Just wondering if you adjusted the ruler of the saw now that the fence is thicker? As for your question, I use beeswax whenever I can. It's the easiest to apply and has the nicest finish. Varnish and that type of stuff I don't like very much but paint is the worst. I hate to paint 😂

You have an eye for detail my friend, but no i did not adjusted the ruler. i'm goin to tell a litle secret here but i'm planning to make a new workbench with this table saw integrated.

Great job Chris. I was wondering what and when you were going to do to address that fence issue. That should do it! I love oil based Polyurethane for a final finish on my projects and have recently started using water based due to it not yellowing when drying. Which matters when applied over a white finish. I found out the hard way.

Would you say the wood fence is less prone to wear than the aluminium one ?

I wouldn't dare say that, but the fence is now more firmly in place and if it were worn out, I could easily replace it. The fence has been in service for a few years now and I am still satisfied with it. regards

Good idea Chris! Nice work. I make it with my einhell table saw

[@christofix]

It is good to see i inspire people! thanks man!

[@SlowandExpensive]

Cool video Chris! I really dig the way your editing to the music. That looks like a solid solution for the fence issue on your saw. Makita makes great products but the fence and the indentations stamped into the table are two of the main reasons I don't think I'd prefer that saw. I've been hooked on the rack and pinion fence on the Dewalt for a long time now. Their fence locks tight, it's very accurate and the 7491 has a large 32" rip capacity. The extra bulk you've added to your fence will be nice for use with the type of jigs that ride the fence such as some tenon jigs . I often finish many of my projects with oil base Minwax satin polyurethane. I can get great results with little mess by applying three coats using a foam brush with a bit of sanding after the second coat. Sometimes, depending on the project I will use a spray can on the final coat. The resulting finish is durable and looks quite professional. The edits are awesome man! I appreciate them, I know they are a time consuming effort :)

[@TheGrantAlexander]

When I saw your review of the table saw I was surprised that the saw came with such a weak fence. A fence that connects to the back of the saw seems like such a simple thing to include. Glad to see you make this upgrade. To answer your question, it really depends on the situation, but I like mineral oil for a food safe application (cutting boards, kids toys) and teak oil for outdoor situations. I also like water based polyurethane to add protection when required.

Question of the day answer: When I was in the Army was the first time I ever heard of paste wax. We would literally set the can on fire and pour it on the floor. once it congealed we used an electric floor buffer to make it shine. I tried this process on some cedar chair seats for the dining room. After about 12 layers, they shine wonderfully. Lot's of time and work but well worth it.

Check out the budget excel 7471 table saw got to be one of the strongest saw fences for a redicoulsly low price & extending table its plain see why high cost branded saws are imported rip offs with their flimsy half way across the table fences that flap in the wind ??

[@christofix]

Thank you for that tip. Greetings

[@truealuminium2676]

Thanks Bro …… 💯💯💯👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 （ This is makita The only dissatisfaction ！ ）

[@christofix]

I'm glad you like this idea. For the moment I'm working on an update for this fence. The video will be online next Monday. I'm pretty sure this will be awesome. Thank you for watching. Greetings

[@bertdebie4217]

Does anyone stille have the free plans ? 😅 He's lost em

[@christofix]

If you can wait a few more days I can put them back on my new website. I have found a way to recover most of the plans and I am working hard to rebuild the website. regards Christophe AKA christofix

[@bertdebie4217]

Ik can wait. Thanks a lot ! Do your plans Also have centimeters or only inches ?

[@christofix]

@@bertdebie4217 That's great! Will do my best to get them online in a few days. I will reply to this comment when they are online. The majority of my plans have measurements in both inches and centimeters (I do my best to convert them to inches although I always use centimeters)

[@christofix]

​@@bertdebie4217 Hi, just to let you know that I have posted the new version of these plans on my website. They are available for download as of now. Greetings Christophe

[@felipemorales7570]

if anyone have the free plans, please answer this comment, i need them

[@christofix]

The plans are back online from now on, so feel free to download them.

[@Everythings_Adjustable]

Mostly I use my home made axe handle wax 👍

[@christofix]

home made? That is so cool you make that yourself!

[@Sly_Wolf_1]

Ridiculous around £400 for a table saw and they can't be arsed to put a decent fence on it. So you cough up the money for the saw, then cough up the material money and time to build a proper fence! For a little extra one can buy a dewalt table saw with an awsome rack and pinion fence. I like Makita tools and own a few but none the less SHAME ON YOU MAKITA!

[@christofix]

Actually, making that fence was fun, but when I bought the table saw I was really disappointed about the fence. I didn't have the money back then to invest in a Dewalt or something bigger so this was my option. But now with all the improvements I made, this table saw is actually good. Thank you for watching.

[@Sly_Wolf_1]

@@christofix It's good courtesy of your patience and great workmanship to improve it. You did a lovely job on it 👍

[@christofix]

@@Sly_Wolf_1 Those are some nice words sir! I really appreciate that. Thank you so much!

[@lukenfoci]

Still no guarantee it is parallel to the blade. DeWalt is way superior in this area.

[@christofix]

Thanks for watching. I have no problems with it. I'm very happy with this improvement and my cuts are always parallel. I know Dewalt has a better system but you will have to pay more for the machine. If I had the money I would choose a Dewalt but now I had to buy a table saw I could afford. So for persons with a small budget, this improvement is excellent.

[@lukenfoci]

@@christofix Fair enough. I am considering buying some table saw. I do not want to spend more than £500, so it is either Bosch or Makita. Your video helped me greatly!

[@christofix]

@@lukenfoci I really recommend this Makita. It has some cons but as a DIYer, you can fix them. I have a few videos about improving this table saw on my channel. Feel free to watch and I hope they will inspire you. There is also a link in the description of my videos to the tools I use (also for the table saw) They are affiliate links and by using these links you support my channel and there are no extra costs for you. It would be much appreciated. If you need some help or have some questions you can always email me ( also a link in the description) Always willing to help. Greetings

[@lukenfoci]

@@christofix I am leaning towards 2704, but it's almost twice the price of MLT100. Will defo watch your other videos, to decide if it is worth to pay more or improve stuff more :).

[@silverfox8801]

Now tell us how it’s done? 🙄

[@christofix]

It is done like i showed in the video. If you want some details, feel free to send me an email. Always willing to help. Greetings

[@Theexplorographer]

Um, where is the test results between the original and this? Other than you yanking on it, how about some REAL tests??

[@christofix]

I thought the images at 3:13 were clear and you could tell that the fence is mounting on the table saw from which you can conclude that moving is impossible. I can deduce from your comment that you have a better idea to prove this, so you can always make a suggestion how I can show you that the fence is no longer moving through this solution. Greetings

[@Theexplorographer]

@@christofix For starters maybe you could put your whole body weight into yanking it like you did the original? A better test would be to cut wood on the original fence and show that it comes out crooked. Then cut wood on the new fence and show the tolerances there? Eh? Science.

[@christofix]

Thanks for your tips. I will take them with me when i'm making new videos. Thanks for your feedback, I appreciate it.

[@paulusx11]

it was all to fast for me, sorreeeee

[@christofix]

You don't need to say sorry my friend. If you have any questions about the build you can always send me an email and I will like to help you where I can. This video was also one of the first videos I made and it was all new to me. In the mean time, I practiced a lot to make better videos. Maybe you will like those new videos more. Thank you for watching. Greetings
