That’s the coolest piece of DIY I’ve ever seen. Now all I need to do this myself is an Engeneering degree, a CNC machine, a buncha aluminum doohickeys, and I’m set!
I truly love what you’ve built. There’s just no way a lotta folks can actually pull that off. Which is why you have more than one person asking if they can buy the aluminum parts off you. I would!
I’m definitely gonna steal your idea using aluminum attached to the right side on the regular fence railes. My fence has never sat at 90, but I think of all the solutions on UA-cam this might be the best combo of simplicity/functionality out there
Awesome video and impressive workmanship. Need to figure out how to plagiarize your idea for same job site saw that I have. No CNC. Do you have detailed drawing?
Very impressive sled, sadly I don’t have your experience or equipment but I am definitely determined to implement some of these ideas and hopefully make a decent sled of my own. Great video and thanks 🙏
Very unique!!! We’ll done! Now that you have used it a bit, how has that stop block worked for you? I’ve seen comments that those type will loosen up and move over time. Thanks!
Wow, beautiful design and execution. Question: Why not use a high quality miter gage with convenient stops and aluminum fence instead of what you did that requires two T-tracks and kind of fussy to adjust?
Nice job. I just bought the very same table saw and you demonstrate how to improve the accuracy. Unfortunately, I do not have a CNC and the cost to have someone do it for me drives the cost too high. I can live with the pencil line error for all of my applications.
Halo My name is Abdullah from the State of Kuwait I watched the video and it was excellent. I am looking for something similar to this and found it in your channel, which I liked. It is the same saw in my workshop, the Dewalt brand. I have a question, if you please, is this thing ready and sold, and if possible, give me the link to the store so that I can buy it Or you made it yourself Thank you and I wish you safety and security and a good life my regards
One other observation, you mention the inaccuracy of wood keeping its shape,(I agree) So why did you use wood in this build? I have used wood myself over the years. Make a jig and 3 months later have to make another because the woos changed. I now make all my jigs out of HDPE (High Density Polyethylene).
You're right. HDPE is fantastic material and I make a lot of stuff out of it. That stuff machines like butter too. One of the challenges with HDPE is that it will distort worse than wood when machining deep channels. I do have some good news to report -- the aluminum reinforced Baltic Birch is holding straight and true so far. I thought surely after several cycles of hot & cold, humid and dry, that there would be some measurable warping but there's not so far.
Wow! Just Wow! Like you, I use a 7491rs that I have to fold up and store after each use. I love the engineering you've applied, math always wins. You should consider at least selling the track, and possibly the sled base.
Fantastic sled. I appreciate the engineering to improve safety and the saw's accuracy. I have the same saw and would love to have a sled just like it. Do you sell them or a kit? Unfortunately I don't have access to a CNC so replicating it myself would be a problem.
If anything, please let me know if you’d be willing to make and sell a set of those T guides that go into the actual slots in the Dewalt job site saw. That being said, you should actually make those to sell. They are impossible to find and I also like the safety factor of the table not tilting. Thanks, Garry
I appreciate your quest for accuracy. I will say, I wish engineers would understand the philosophy of “acceptable tolerances”. I’m a builder. I’ve worked with many engineers, civil, structural soils. Some, but many don’t understand “acceptable tolerances” if you are designing a part for a Mars rover I understand it nees to be very precise. If you are designing a gravel driveway you don’t need to be within 1/8” of accuracy…that much is moved when the first car is driven over it. We are using a $500 saw and building stuff that our five year old kid will drive his PowerWheel into. Nice sled though.
From what I can see in the photo, it looks like you drilled and tapped your guides? Did you use double sided tape to press on the sled and then carefully slide it out? Thanks, Garry.
I don't think anyone has heard back from him on that request however, Woodcraft sells the INCRA Miter Slider SE - Item 149883 Model IMS2SE which fits perfectly in the saw slots including the safety piece to keep it from tipping out.
Good job. Typical engineer. 🤦♂️ This video is really funny to me. I am a retired structural designer. I spent 43 years as a draftsman/designer. When I started watching this video the first thing that the first thing that jumped into my head was, “I’ll bet this guy is an engineer”. Completely over thought, over designed and over built. Good job! I’ll probably steal your design, simplify the design a bit and build one myself. 😂 I have the DeWalt 7485. The 8 1/4” little brother. Perfect saw. Thanks!
Hahaha. I have been called the "king of overkill" my whole life. Maybe I should have that put on a T-Shirt. HaHa. I will argue that it's better to be on this extreme than the polar opposite.
Great looking addition to your table saw. Great engineering, take my money please.
That’s the coolest piece of DIY I’ve ever seen. Now all I need to do this myself is an Engeneering degree, a CNC machine, a buncha aluminum doohickeys, and I’m set!
Thanks for the laugh. I needed that today. I do see your point through the sarcasm though.
I truly love what you’ve built. There’s just no way a lotta folks can actually pull that off. Which is why you have more than one person asking if they can buy the aluminum parts off you. I would!
Wow! This is great. I know a guy that built one of these in his garage a few years ago very similar to this!
I’m definitely gonna steal your idea using aluminum attached to the right side on the regular fence railes. My fence has never sat at 90, but I think of all the solutions on UA-cam this might be the best combo of simplicity/functionality out there
I see a lot of comments about buying your hardware for the table saw. Just curious if you have started making them yet? I would definitely buy a set.
I love what you did! Would love to buy a kit!
This is the best sled I have seen. Have you come up with a kit that can be purchased?
You should manufacture the miter bars I know I buy a set.
Awesome video and impressive workmanship. Need to figure out how to plagiarize your idea for same job site saw that I have. No CNC. Do you have detailed drawing?
Absolutely incredible! Would love to buy the CNC parts from you to build one like this. Very interested in making this happen.
We might be able to make that happen
@@garretbryl625seconded!
I’m interested too
I am also very interested in purchasing them
Iam with them. I would purchase
Very impressive sled, sadly I don’t have your experience or equipment but I am definitely determined to implement some of these ideas and hopefully make a decent sled of my own. Great video and thanks 🙏
Love miter bars! Have the same saw. Need to make them!
Very unique!!! We’ll done! Now that you have used it a bit, how has that stop block worked for you? I’ve seen comments that those type will loosen up and move over time. Thanks!
It's working great. The stop block has not had any problems at all. This crosscut has become one of my most useful and practical woodworking tools
Very smart thinking wish I could make myself be half as accurate
Wow, beautiful design and execution.
Question: Why not use a high quality miter gage with convenient stops and aluminum fence instead of what you did that requires two T-tracks and kind of fussy to adjust?
Great job and design. One problem, most people do not have a CNC machine.

Or you made it yourself
Thank you and I wish you safety and security and a good life

Abdullah, I made this one. I am not selling them but have considered making the components so that people can have one for their table saw as well
@@garretbryl625 Can you please provide this link. I need 3 sets (father, In-Law and myself). Looking forward to your response.
Just ordered the DWE7492, so excited!
Looks like you could sell these CNC modifications either separately or as a kit, just like Izzy Swan does.
oh my I would love to buy one I have the exact table saw

You should sell this to the dewalt company. I have the same saw and would buy it in a heartbeat. Great job.

Are your runners available for purchase?

Really impressive
Ever going to sell plans to make this sled?
From what I can see in the photo, it looks like you drilled and tapped your guides? Did you use double sided tape to press on the sled and then carefully slide it out? Thanks, Garry.
I know it’s been a year since this video, but are you selling these tracks? I have this same saw and would like to purchase some from you.

Very good can you sell me the runners for the same saw I don't have a CNC machine.
I feel like I'm the only amateur woodworker in the world who doesn't have a CNC machine.
Can you sell the cnc file? There's a shop in Katy where you can buy time on their mega cnc
Sorry....cad file
Good job. Typical engineer. 🤦♂️

Darn.......I seem to have "misplaced" my CNC milling machine. ?
Really great Garret! Wanna build one and sell to me for my Dewalt 7491?
Would be nice if this was something a person could buy. no cnc here
How many DIY woodworker's have a CNC machine pointless.
$$$
Do you sell miter.track.bars.?
Such a safety feature future job site saws m?
yeah I'd be in for a purchase of those too!
