After using the Ridgid R4560 for about 10 months now, I wanted to share my thoughts about the saw. The Ridgid 4560 is the newest 2021 professional 10 inch cast iron table saw offering from Ridgid. I got a pre-production model of the Ridgid R4560 and after using it for tons and tons of projects, I've got some in-depth details that will help you decide if this saw is right for you in this long term review!
Anyway, I hope you enjoy this one and as always, let me know what you'd like to see next! Tag me @SpencleyDesignCo on Instagram so I can check any of your builds!

PS. I'm sure someone has mentioned, and as per your test, that switch *CAN NOT* remain on when not powered. It's a powered-on magnetic switch. You're fine unplugging it.

[@djsnowman06]

Just commented on the other video. Pretty sure it has low voltage protection. In fact i think there is an electrical code rule about it.

[@Mark-bn7lk]

Since this is a Delta clone, all the KZbin videos on calibration and adjustment of the 36-725 and T2 are applicable. I have found a ton of useful info from these videos, especially on leveling the steel extension wings by attaching them to the rails only first, getting them level much easier, then attaching them to the cast iron. There is more stuff on squaring the blade to the miter slot by adjusting the set screws in the back of the saw. Stuff you will never find in the manual or on the website.

[@DownloaderVideo]

I wouldn’t call it a “Clone”, it is manufactured by Delta so it is the same saw with a different branding/color.

[@davidlynch7666]

@@DownloaderVideo so…. A clone

[@stephenmcgeown]

I think you should definitely do more tools reviews. I like this style where you've clearly given it some proper use and know all the aspects whether they are good and bad, and it all seems fair. You shouldn't put yourself down, though! You have built up a ton of skills, experience and peanuts so your reviews would carry some weight. I can't really lend too much credence to other reviews that are really no more than unboxing videos and a quick whirl of the tool along with a handy link to a 5% off.

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

I appreciate the feedback, Stephen!

[@COUNTS1096]

If you haven’t figured it out yet, the “flip down thing” on the fence isn’t for cutting on the other side of the fence. It’s so you can move the fence over the open area, the space next to the table surface but still reachable by the fence, and cut thin sheet goods without them bending and going under the fence; it perfectly matches the height of the table when flipped down.

[@StephenTreiber]

Peanuts! Good review, only thing I disagree with is the power switch. I like having these magnetic safety switches. The fact that you can’t see if the saw is on is irrelevant because the saw is only on when you press the switch with it plugged in. With no power to the saw, the power switch doesn’t actually switch.

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Thanks, for watching Stephen! I understand how the magnetic switch works, but I still don’t like it. I like that tactile feedback on tools. The button is super soft and mushy

[@crustycurmudgeon2182]

[@FatalMusa]

Peanuts, I just bought this saw and another major gripe I have is the rails. They make it next to impossible to easily attach a built-in (folding) outfeed table. The much older saws had T-tracks that could be utilized to easily add to. This one makes it a lot more difficult and thought provoking. I was really hoping you had ideas for it, but it looks like you have a dedicated table behind it.

[@stevedsouza9843]

Peanuts - can you run the saw AND dust collection at the same time, off the same single circuit? I’m in the same 120 volt boat as you.

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

I’m only able to do it on really small cuts. If it’s 8/4 hardwood I can’t do both at the same time

[@dylan-nguyen]

woaaah hold up this looks *EXACTLY* like the new Delta T2 table saw?! 🤯 Did Ridgid just copy their saw? Everything looks the same

The tool industry is a giant mess haha. There are really only a small handful of brands

[@gullrockgeorge9057]

Nice review. You should do more tool reviews. Regarding the switch on your new saw, this is the type of switch you will get with most higher power, higher quality saws. Only the cheaper jobsite type saws have the purely mechanical switch you had on your old saw. The switch on the new saw is a magnetic switch and is a big safety improvement. It prevents your saw from powering up after an unexpected outage, blown breaker, or other power interruption.

[@RandallD244]

Peanuts (see I did watch the whole video!). My primary question is about your work space. I know you said it is a small one car garage. I’m contemplating setting up a woodwork shop. My available space is approximately 12x24. Would you mind letting us know the actual dimensions of your space? I tend to think a ton of space is required until I see guys like you and others operating out of small shops. Thanks.

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Thanks for watching, Randall! Here’s a shop tour video I did that answers your questions: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oHuamWiwZbSlgbc

[@tonysworkshop3379]

Peanuts...I went from a Ryobi jobsite saw to the Ridgid R4520. I'm super happy with my purchase. Really enjoyed the review on this one. Not looking for a new saw, but I was interested in seeing this one. Yeah, keep doing reviews! Enjoy the channel, brother.

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Thank you very much, Tony!

[@dylan-nguyen]

The saw I think has electronic soft start Hence when power plug is pulled it is always off That’s also probably why it isn’t a huge toggle switch like the old one It’s more like a computer power button and less like a power strip power switch I believe all the soft start saws are like that, but the green bit could be bigger 🙂

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Yup, it’s a magnetic switch

[@MathCoreMC]

Thanks for the long term review! I appreciate the follow up.

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Sure thing! Figured this would be a popular topic

[@platinumbeerkeg5408]

Dumb question, home depot calls it a 3.2hp saw, is yours just an older model or is home depot advertising it wrong? I need to upgrade from my cheap job site saw and am looking at the Ridgid.

[@dfinma]

13:45 The switch might be a contactor (relay). It should only turn on if it has supplied voltage and you press the button. If it turns off due to any sort of interruption -- power loss, tripped breaker, press the off switch -- it will (should?) only turn back on again if you press the on button. IOW if it's off it stays off until you turn it on again. To test it, turn on the saw than either unplug it or turn off the breaker, then plug it back in and see what happens. Edit: A contactor-type switch might be a new OSHA standard. It's really a better style and I hope you get used to it.

[@stevenmorrison3083]

Peanuts - I saw your video on the router plate you put on the R4560. You had some red rail type thing on it. Can you tell me what that was? I cannot find the video where you added it. I just purchased the R4560 and have watched all of your videos on it and can’t figure what you added or what it’s for. Thank you for your time.

The switch is a magnetic switch meant to disconnect when the power fails or is disconnected to keep the motor from powering up when power is restored or plug back on, is a safety feature

[@n8simpson]

At $399, which is what I got it for, this is the best saw in the world

[@pantzwoodworks919]

Did it require completely detaching the motor from the table?

[@kong_dong_usmc6651]

Peanuts, thanks for the video, well done. This helped me make a decision on this saw. Personally, I like the saw but I know I need something more powerful thanks to your video.

[@johnshipps441]

Peanuts - excellent video! I’m a new sub and new to woodworking. I found you while looking for a mobile table saw stand. I downloaded your plans and just made mine this weekend. I modified the height (I’m short!) and I didn’t do the drawers because I put my mitre saw in the bottom instead. My job site saw is a super lame Ryobi that was given to me. I’d like to invest in a nicer table saw this year, but not sure I need something as big as the one you just reviewed. I may do something like the Rigid you used to have or the Dewalt. Anyway, keep doing great vids! I’d love to see some tool reviews too! I’d like to make furniture like you do eventually as well. My next project is a TV stand and I’m stressed out since it’ll be the first “furniture” I’ve ever made and needs to be good. Got any good TV stand plans? 🤣

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Welcome aboard, John! I’ve got a tv stand way way way back in the archives. It’s pretty easy to build, the video quality isn’t great though 🤣 kzbin.info/www/bejne/e2Scknd6hrelr7M

I really like my R4560. I bought a 52in fence for a delta 5000 and retro fit it on. I was hoping it would just bolt on but I did have to drill some new holes but it works flawless

[@edcarden6086]

I like how the knobs still have the delta triangles in the center.

[@tyneanderson8830]

Peanuts. Would the saw function normally without the legs? Meaning, does the motor hang below the legs or anything that would physically affect the functionality of the saw? I have a work bench on casters that I’d like to put the saw on and I think I’d need to take the legs off to have it fit on the workbench. P.s. I really like the review video. Yes you’re nitpicking, but that’s the point. And thank you for giving the overall dimensions, I was looking online and they only were giving the rip lengths on either side of the saw. Simple adding the two side widths, but it’s nice to physically see the tape measure on the video. I’m also looking at the delta version of this saw, will be making a decision soon. Thanks!

[@johndoe6032]

Thanks for the info. Regarding power at 8:50 I have read that these can be wired for 220 for extra power.

[@jameskirk3]

The riving knife looks to use Allen (hex) bolts, with a ball end on the wrench (key), it should be accessible, as it doesn't look to be too steep an angle, but I would use a ratchet anyways, with a wobble extension or universal joint. It might make it easier for you than trying to get at it with a straight tool.

[@LordPadriac]

Rigid is not paying me anything or sponsoring this video in any way...except for the part where they sent me this saw absolutely free. That saw is Home Depot's (You did know Rigid is wholly owned by Home Depot right?), anyway this is just Home Depot's most recent and obvious IP theft. This is the exact same saw that Delta came out with a few years ago to update their 36-725 with orange paint. I've looked at this because it's a little cheaper (usually) than the 36-725T2. However true to Home Depot's practice they copied the saw and the dumbed down the quality wherever they could to sell a quantity of them. Buy the real one from Delta if you're looking for a saw in this price range. The motor, cast ironp top and trunnions are all better on the Delta 36-725T2.

[@TheDonbjr]

Peanuts! Great review! One thing, I just bought (ordered) this saw today. You said that it’s only 1 3/4 hp. I purchased the R4560 (same saw) but it is 3.2 hp. Did they do an upgrade? Thanks again for the review.

[@DarrenCharron]

Peanuts I am confiding buying a ridged table saw but I do like the laguna f2 table saw. However I think I am leaning more towards the ridged.

[@WesternCanadianWoodworker]

peanuts ~ decent review dude. How do you cut with your trac-saw without it slipping around? I haven't bought one yet and I can't even touch the prices Festool charges ... although they seem like a good product. Could you review Trac-saws rails and their compatibility with standard skillsaws? Thanks ... oh, by the way ... what is your day job?

[@tripives1858]

Damn, you're tall! Seems like a great table as it appears to be able to mostly replace an expensive, old style, huge, heavy table. However, it clearly isn't a job-site saw (or so it would seem from what I can see). It's a shame it's only 15 amps, even the tiny Ryobi is 15 amps. But yes, then you need a 20 amp circuit. The riving knife issue reminds me of the Audi in the 1980's that needed the whole engine dropped to change one of the sparkplugs.

[@kenkel98]

Peanuts - Do you still use this as your primary saw? Has it held up? I am looking at this saw and its twin brother, the Delta 36-725T2. Also, did you ever replace the extensions with wood? If so, what did you use and if not, what would you have used? Thank you for great videos, I have watched a lot of your stuff and just subscribed, should have done it months ago.

[@NikitaPetersen-zq3qg]

I feel like if your doing this for a living you should just buy a cabinet saw from a legit woodworking brand. Laguna, Grizzly, Delta, Powermatic.

[@marksjunction69]

RIGID cannot maintain quality and keep the price lower, so I find a lot of their products are getting less reliable in terms of quality because they want to target the DIY’er. I bought the Rigid Contractor saw about 20 years ago, it was beefy back then, but still lacks the power for hardwood ripping. Looking to upgrade to a Laguna.

[@ironwood1621]

As far as the play in the fence, you need to adjust the 2 screws under the fence to stop the sloppiness. I have a Delta 36-725 T2 (same saw) and had the same issue.

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

I tried that and then it became impossible to lock down. Maybe I need to take another look at it

[@ChrisHornberger]

Peanuts - Re: job site saw, I love them, generally, and the Skil rack-n-pinion from which I just updated was really pretty great (in its work class) except for the one thing that really ruined it for me - the throat plate that was made of tissue paper and wishes. And every other job site saw I looked at had the same issue. Small pieces that rest on the throat plate become sloppy - and frankly dangerous to cut - as all those low-end saws have crappy throat plates that flex **WAY** too much. :(

[@GeoffCox-nd9ok]

Peanuts. The switch is a standard magnetic switch, and as such the magnetic field is only generated when the switch is plugged in, so it is impossible for it to start if it is not physically plugged in. The "on" is a non-latching mechanism so likewise you can not activate the mechanism without the switch itself being powered. So once it is unplugged it's perfectly safe. I am new to your chanel, and find it very informative. Keep it up, i don't have the same equipment as you sue (i am in France) but it allows me to see methods and techniques. i do have one question though, relative to pocket holes, do you have to use "proper" pocket screws, would not a 'normal' wood screw suffice? Is the specificity the fact that the screw is sel-tapping, or is it the fact that the head is flat/domed rrather than a counter sunk shape? I have bought a pocket hole jig similar to the first one you bought so any details would be appreciated. Thanks

[@beautallman8358]

PEANUTS!!! Hello there, fellow ohioan lol, love the review on this table saw, have been going back and forth between this and the delta.

[@Erik_The_Viking]

Peanuts - thank you for the update! Nice to know all of the pros and cons about it, and I appreciate the candor about potential issues and compromises that may be a deal breaker. I have an old Ryobi BT3000 from 1991, and the riving knife adjustment on it is a nightmare. This would be a very nice upgrade, but there are some items with the Ridgid that I don't have with the Ryobi. I might look at one of the other jobsite models instead.

[@Griffinwoodworks]

I like tool reviews, but I’m more interested in builds. I’ve picked up countless tips just from your videos alone and my style is a bit inspired by some cues from yours.

I do not understand that this saw is a prototype when in fact it is a Delta table saw, made by Delta. Strange. It is orange though. I have the same saw (Delta from Lowes) and along with the Inkra Miter 5000 is just as accurate as Laguna or anyone else.

[@barotraumabruce4245]

Peanuts? After watching your first video I ordered this saw from THD. That was today, so I won’t have it for about 9 days. Also, from the first video, I cringed when you tossed your old saw. My 25- year old Ryobi BT3000 had a similar problem where the blade lift mechanism stripped out completely. It was actually a fairly simple fix with a Heli-coil. I would have tried this fix on your old saw before giving it the heave-ho. On a parting note…you do an excellent product review! I want my subscription to pay rewards in the future! Thank you, very much.

Personal Delta has always made quality tools just as Craftsman had. If I had the room, I would take a Craftsman Table saw over almost everyone else that how well built they are. wood working had never been my thing, but you name it and I have been into it. somethings Im into just not head long as I should be. That because after 50+ yrs it getting long in the tooth.

[@robertivey3268]

Actually, the Ridgid is the clone and it is built by Delta. I have the Delta and think it is a great saw.

Peanuts: Wing replacement, somewhere I can buy? Or are you making for sale a better solution? I am a beginner, just purchased this unit and still in the box. Setup tomorrow. Appreciate all your videos on this unit. Subscribed to learn more, Thank you.

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Check out my recent videos. I’ve shown how I made them

[@hplj5500]

Peanuts, sorry I just noticed Stephen Treiber already gave you this feedback..........FYI on your concern about not clearly knowing if the power switch is on or off when you plug in your saw. Given that you experimented by pressing the start switch a few times, then plugged in the saw without the saw starting, I would say the power switch has a momentary close contact within it. Meaning, the switch has to have power to it for it to stay "on" when you turn it on. So, removing power from such a switch prevents it from ever accidentally being "on" when you unplug the saw. I'm no electrician, but I've run into these type switches before.

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Yup, it’s a magnetic switch

[@johndurrance2758]

Peanuts. What is the toggle switch at the front left side?

[@schoon8654]

Peanuts: now that you've been using it for an additional 6 months, have you made any personal upgrades. I would guess that you could replace the On/Off switch with another and/or the side wings...

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Yes, two of my more recent videos cover the updates I did

[@bobhempstead7045]

PEANUTS. WOULD YOU PLEASE COMPARE EXPENSIVE MEASURING TOOLS SUCH AS “WOODPECKERS” TO THE MORE AFFORDABLE BRANDS MOST OF US START WITH. COMPARE COSTS AND ACCURACY AS WELL AS RECOMMENDING WHICH MEASURING TOOLS TO START WITH AND WHICH ONES TO UPGRADE FIRST. THANK YOU, BOB

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Why are you yelling Bob?

[@logan_kes]

The “T square” / biesmeyer fences all have this “problem” a true biesmeyer and the sawstop pro fences partially fix this issue by having a uhmw faced metal shim that has a pivot at the top of the fence and sits between the cam of the handle that presses against the fence rail to lock it in and the fence itself. It’s job is to eliminate the needed gap when disengaging the handle by keeping the “flapper” pressed against the fence rail, but not preventing it from sliding (hence the uhmw) great solution, maybe wouldn’t be too hard to retrofit. Also dimensions line up where you should just be able to go get a biesmeyer and slap it on these saws.

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Thank you for the insight Logan

[@wwmilanl]

Peanuts" Hello again, two more question, how is the dust collection in your opinion???? and how accurate is the fence?? thanks again.

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

They’re both fine, but not great

[@tysonwashburn7510]

Peanuts, I'd like to see more info on the dado capabilities. I am wondering if it would be ok for cutting 3/4 rabbets 3/8 deep on concrete form plywood

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

You can use a dado stack, but not 3/4”

[@jamesbock4284]

Peanuts…great video… appreciate the perspective on whether or not the right saw or not and the pros and cons feedback. Sounds like after you get it dialed in, good be a great saw…. Setting up my own dedicated shop (for hobby still) and not want wanting to spend thousands but get away from job site saw, so this might be a good fit. Thx again!

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Thanks, James! Based on your needs, this saw would probably be a great fit!

[@GamerNxUSN]

So, is this saw already discontinued or not available yet? HD website has no 4560. They have a 4520 and it is definitely not the same.

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

I’m not sure

[@jeffoldham668]

peanut,,,do you still have this saw and are you happy with it,,or do you wish you had a different one,,like maybe a grizzly or jet

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

I unfortunately still have it and am seeing a lot of problems with it now

[@ilivefor2day]

PEANUTS, Did you have a problem installing the anti kick piece & the guard?

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

I did not have any issues with those

[@blondemyth2]

Peanuts, great video and thorough review. These have been available at home depot since early september or so, i bought one in early november last year after watching your first review. One thing worth mentioning about this saw is that while it does run on a standard 15 amp outlet, it needs its own dedicated circuit as it drains up to 16 amps when it starts up. If youre running dust collection or a shop vac, it has to be on a different outlet connected to a seperate circuit at the breaker box. I used it for about a month, not knowing there was a homeless guy squatting behind the building my shops in and running a mini fridge and microwave off the same circuit, and the motor completely burned out and wouldn't start up anymore. The reset button on the motor was stiff as a brick. I called ridgid and they said to just bring it back to home depot and get a new one. The staff at my local home depot were extremely friendly about the exchange and now ive got my 2nd one set up and ready to go. But im not even firing it up until i can have an electrician come out and set up a new circuit+outlet just for this saw. And like you said, dialing this thing in is a bit of a PITA, so setting up the new one was especially tedious after how long it took to dial in the first one. Not a problem everyone is going to have but its worth keeping in mind as ive read it was a common problem with the delta saw this one is a clone of too. Lots of people thought they had a defective saw, but they were really just overloading the circuit, starving the motor for power, and burning it out

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Wow! That’s quite a story 🤣

[@gladstonewilliams4167]

Peanuts 😉. Did you have a designated circuit for the table saw? And did you an extension cord and what gauge ? Thank you 🙏🏾

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Unfortunately I’m quite limited with power in here. I use a 12 gauge extension cord. I talk more about those issues in my shop tour video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oHuamWiwZbSlgbc

[@giorgiopereira6742]

i am getting some strong will forte vibes and i mean that in the most non dickhead way possible (also, watch the movie nebraska. its really good). subbed and bell thinged. come out to old town tavern

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Thanks

[@debandmike3380]

I'm confused are you reviewing the rigid tablesaw or promoting woodpecker products

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Thanks for watching, Deborah

[@johnegbert3647]

Peanuts. The assembly and calibration looks intimidating. What saws do you compare this too?

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

After having this a long time, it’s next to impossible to keep this saw calibrated. I wouldn’t buy it

[@youtoobeer1686]

So stupid, it’s like buying a honda and complaining that you have to spend a lot of time and work so it drives like a Bentley

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Are you sure?

[@natejmedia]

Love these videos and your presentation style! Gotta work on your focus though. And color correction.

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Thank you for watching

[@danielcollins5356]

Peanuts, great video. I think more tool review videos would be good.

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

I appreciate the feedback, Daniel!

[@Bwwk3440]

The HP for this saw on the website says 3.2hp. I guess they upgraded the power for final release?

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Nope, that’s a typo

[@tuesboomer1623]

Regarding the electrical 'mechanism' that keeps the saw from inadvertently operating when you don't want it to: it's called a NVR switch. No Voltage Release. The channel, Proper DIY, has a great segment within his latest video on powering his workbench which demonstrates how and why it works. He is in the UK so terminology may be a tad different for the same thing here in the States.

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Yup, other folks refer to it as a "magnetic switch" too. I just prefer a mechanical switch as this one is very sloppy and mushy

[@ChristianN-]

@@SpencleyDesignCo That they are - but they're super safe and can be trusted. We've had them for years and years here in europe :) That being said - my table saw has a little mechanical-ish electrical switch, one of those turn-to-lock-out red buttons in addition to the NVR switch so I guess it's to please all preferences :-)

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Exactly, it’s all preference 😀

[@ChristianN-]

@@SpencleyDesignCo Yup. I still keep pulling out my lead personally though... bad time to accidentally hit any switch in some freak accident kind of way with my hands somewhere down in the machine.

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Oh 100% I always unplug the saw just like I always unplug my router when I change bits

[@STARSHADOWWOODWORKS]

Peanuts lol, Great video, can I ask question to anyone with the Delta saw? How tall is it without the legs for doing something like this? I'm looking at picking one up and seeing if can intergrate where my DeWalt currently sits or make new work bench. Thank in advance.

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Thanks for watching senpai! If you did something like that, you’d need to get some really thick dowels to fit inside the legs

[@aulii11]

Peanuts. That's all I've got. Peanuts.

[@jestephens]

Peanuts. Thanks for the review. Making a similar upgrade, I needed the confidence it was a good buy. The HD product page lists it as 3.2hp, so thanks for the notice it probably isn't

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

No problem, Jay! This saw is definitely NOT 3.2HP... whoever wrote that on their website must've had a little too much to drink 😂

[@dieseldime]

On a 120v 15amp circuit you would never run 3.2hp, to much current at the voltage. The 1.25 to 1.5 real life hp. is more realistic.

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Yes, it’s definitely not 3HP
