So your a newbe[video=youtube;RBucMKhrL8M]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBucMKhrL8M#t=465[/video] and need a table saw...
All that bracket building and hinging wasn't needed. First one I ever used the guy had just screwed through the deck of an old saw and into a piece of plywood. Flipped it over, stuck it between two sawhorses, BAM....instant table saw. All the adjustments on the saw still worked.
BOB...........you need to watch it again.Dangerous assuming that the blade's turning the wrong way trying to grab the work out of your hands and walk its way on top of it instead of pushing it down onto the table and back at you like a real table saw. Exactly the same problem when attempting to rip on a radial arm saw. Dangerous.
Actually, I think he used his home made band saw for most of the cutting. He does have a powermatic that I have seen in other videos. http://woodgears.ca/bandsaw/build.htmlAnyone with all the tools and know how to build that monstrosity already has a table saw.
