I've ripped out everything including wainscotting and putting in all different trim. Doors, windows, baseboard, wainscotting, and crown. All because Richard made me think I could do it.
Dis the same thing, spent a few thou in tools, built my own tool shed and them began doing the baseboards around the house, got more tools and replace all the tile painted the whole interior and then redid all the crown moulding and moulding around every vent around the house... all in four months just in time for the new baby arrival, need to mention that all the trim and material i got at cost since im a gm for a lumber dealer
Man, I’ve been following for a while now but haven’t watched a video for little. Seems like you’re killing it in life. New tools beside dewalt, cut hubs and more property. I do like your tool reviews bc you know what your doing and talking about. Your level of craftsmanship is awesome.
Great review, looks like a great tool. For those of us who can’t afford the CUTHUB, I got Dewalt Stand with Best Fence Aluminum wings and Stop Blocks for about $600. While it is not a complete work station with table saw, it sets up quicker in a smaller level area.
Awesome review, I only wish this was available years ago when I did a lot of trim and cabinet work. It's an awesome set up and we'll worth the money. Over time it will pay for itself and you will wonder how you did without it.
How do you like the Milwaukee 18v 12 in dual bevel miter saw vs the DEWALT flex volt? Looking at getting one so I don’t have to worry about power and am leaning a little more toward the Milwaukee. Also do you run the 12 ah or 8 ah on the Milwaukee?
I had a chance to use my buddies CH for a week. Top quality is an understatement rock solid and the stops were great!!! Would I purchase it? No, why not because of price, quality or workable realestate....it’s because it’s just too much. The setup and tear down at the end of the day was a bit much. I did enjoy the table saw to rip stuff that was cool. Maybe if we could leave it setup it might be a bit better.with the price of the thing no way would I leave it onsite. Is it shop quality, rock solid and beautifully made absolutely. Did the setup each day turn me off yea. Like anything if you want shop quality it takes a bit if fiddle. He loves it and I can see why. I think next I want to demo the fast cap best fence and see what’s that’s all about. Great video as always
I use one at work and I am not very impressed. The plastic locking lever that holds the legs broke on one almost immediately. Some jerk lost the little plastic piece that holds the saw to the stand where you clamp the table to the stand. So, lots of breakable easy to lose plastic pieces. Also, adjusting the height of the table on the chop saw is extremely difficult. You have to get on the ground and undo 4 allen set screws. Then lift your 35 pound sliding miter saw and the table level (while on the ground) and then tighten the set screws. This is only possible if you have an assistant that isn't totally stupid. I just think it is expensive to have these design flaws. You should be able to level the chop saw to the tables with something that you can screw in and out and make micro adjustments. If your table isn't set right, your blade will bind and KAPOW!!! It shouldn't be that difficult.
Hey buddy, I’m a wood flooring contractor un San Diego Ca , I appreciate you sharing all that invaluable information on tools and trade! I would like to switch to cordless on some of my tools specially my miter saw but now that I work with the DeWalt dust extractor/vacuum I can’t go back . How did you set up your cordless saw with the dust extractor?! I believe I heard in one of your videos that you have a “pedal” please share..
Value is in the eye of the user. I just purchased some festool quick clamps (and a bunch of tools over the weekend and last week in the sales). Just a guy who has always had a desire to build and create. Not a carpenter by profession. Did I get ripped off? Always are cheaper options but if it works for you and the money is available to do it and your happy then it worked as was a good purchase.
I know you said you don't use the ruler much but I have a question... is there something in place for locating your saw base to the same spot on those pipe rails everytime you set it? I am wondering because if it can be placed anywhere that would change your zero offset to the blade every time you set it up. I'm assuming there's something but just didn't see you point it out. Thanks!
I work in the microchip industry installing chip manufacturing equipment. We bend Stainless Steel Tubing for exotic gas delivery systems. We build our work tables 3' high with an intermediate shelf to lay our tools on. We lay the Tubing on the table and do our measurements and markings. We cut it to length and use a facing tool that perfectly squares the end for welding alignment. With our other tools stored on the shelf we pick up our benders and manipulate the Tubing into the design. The tools aren't in the way on the shelf below the table top.
Just did total trim, jambs, casing and baseboard on 20 doors and all rooms. I also had a few alt stand before the CutHub. I could not have done any of it without the stability of the CutHub. No question. It’s paid for itself.
@jami w good for you. I apprenticed with a guy in the 70’s who could do all sorts of finish work with a hand saw free hand. He could 45s sitting up on the roof. I was never able to cut that accurately. Similarly, I worked on crown moulding with the dewalt stand and had a tough time keep 16’ nested and not torqued. It sounds like you’ve got it nailed down though. I’m proud of you!!
It's not worth it brother, think about it, $3400.00, what amount of power tools could you get, how about a full western snow plow with full power angle, or Festool Kapex saw ,and Dewalt table saw with mobil stand, and Festool Router, and 22' little giant ladder, and Fein multi tool and still have about $200.00 left over, COME ON!!!
Looks like a great idea but only for finish work or sites where you can leave it in one spot till the job is done. I packup my sawbench everyday and put it in my trailer. If I had to get this out, set it up and then put it all away every day, I'd get nothing done. Still rockin my dewalt stand with 2x roller stands at the end. 12m over all sawbench length.
@@michaelmancini5773 that’s why, everyone is different. If a product is well made, easy to setup, and makes the job site look neat and professional, then my argument as a high end contractor is definitely diff then yours. I will always work faster and better with stable good quality tools. Yes, call me a snob, but hey, that’s the way I view this.
Off-topic somewhat. When you install crown molding on a vaulted ceiling, say 45 degrees, do you do the transition piece or something different? Thanks & Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Greetings from Washington state. Perhaps I missed an announcement on your part, Richard, but I'm wondering why we haven't heard from you in so many weeks. I hope you and your family are OK. Please let us know what's up with you.
Seriously one of the best investments. I'm 47 and collected tools since I was your age and now have my grandfather and fathers tools as well. It's such a wonderful feeling to have the tools needed to do a job yourself. Not to mention could start your own business like he/we did!
Such a great bit of gear. In the workshop it’s pretty easy to make a mitre saw setup but on-site it’s really hard get something that gives you all the features you need. The mitre saw stands available here in the uk are terrible. This is awesome and as you said you stand at it a lot. It’s the office.
3400$ can be spent on other things....Can get the job done just as well with other tools/equipment. No different than woodpeckers. do they look nice? yes, are they necessary? no.
If I was a full time finish carpenter, I'd get this in a heartbeat. As a general handyman, it's hard to justify the price versus how much I would use it. However, if I was new in the game, I would definitely invest in one.
how would you afford it if youre NEW in the game? these kinds of prices are pushing apprentices away from the industry. no new worker wants or HAS thousands to throw around
Looks like you could put a dewalt planer on the center for an infeed out feed for rough cut lumber. Now a track saw system using the stop to stright line rip a rough edge. Or even rout it.
Looks pretty awesome, but I am wondering how flat are those 2x12’s. Most lumber today is cupped, twisted, bowed etc. Also, how wide of a board can you rip with that setup before it’s long enough to hit the end of the miter saw. In other words, can you rip a little off a long 1x12 without hitting the fence of the miter saw ? If you have more than 8 ft I guess sheet goods are no problem. Like your videos, keep up the good work
Everyone looking for a hoodie or zip up, be patient! I was nervous too so I called the guy at success print shop. Everything is jammed up between the covid and the holidays. I just got mine today. Richard! Hope all is well, looking forward to the next video
Love your videos, your humor, and your expertise. I am a newbie at all of it. Could you tell me what you use for a stud finder...I bought a cheap one and got what I paid for...any suggestions? Keep up the good work! Wish I could hire you as your work is Primo.
there are some amazing feature in this stand , i love that stop and how easy it glides. but i dont think its perfect. i dont like the way the saw attaches, it looks delicate and easily broken in the back of a van. same goes for the arms on those cool table wings. this really seems to me that they didnt do enough on site testing with guys on the ground . a few small adjustments should be made like making the leg clips so they lock themselves without pushing the button. a router table would be great in one of those tables i see the massive benifits to this set up. but i dont see how it justifies the price. i have been planning upgrade my dewalt with similar features and will go down the 2 stand route you were going before. 2 stands is around 450 euros so if i spend 550 on upgrades i will still be below 1k . somewhere around 1500 to 1800 seems a more realistic value to put on this set up
Ya- I know some of my nicer tools force me to slowdown in setup/packup. It would be fine if i scheduled all my own jobs but when your rushing or it’s a hella late night/ 18 hour day I really resent having to neatly pack up my ‘good tools’ when I desperately want to yeet them straight in the trailer and gtfo. But if I break my domino or bend a track saw track I’d hate myself-
I think the nicer the tool the more bomb proof it should be- why the hell is my pack out case 10x more durable than the systainer on my Bosch or festool stuff? Why is my DEWALT drill feel more robust than my partners festool at 1/4 the cost
I put a hold on my mothers custom prosthetic leg for now until I use the cut hub on enough jobs to buy her a new one. A peg leg IS fortunately something you can make out of wood.
is it possible to position the table saw feature between both CutHub stands so that you would have support feeding a board going in as well as support out feeding?
On my Dewalt battery table saw I sometimes use a feather board (mine is a plastic Kreg one) just in front of the blade for long stock that I am ripping. Note: Never ever put a feather board in line or in front of a table saw blade.
I love watching reviews about things I'll never have the need for. Although, we're planning on buying a new house in the next year and doing all the trim myself so maybe...
Completely not related to this video, but I’m installing shiplap in my own house and having issues getting tight around trim that’s not 100% level. House has settled I suppose and things are far from squared and perfect. Can you maybe do a video on a full shiplap install and what you do around these problems???? Love your stuff man and learned a lot... thank you either way!
Do you have any problems with the knob pieces coming off as that’s one hint wish they would change ! I keep losing mine when taking miter saw on and off. Also wish they would have legs so you could use just one side with miter saw
Richard. I just got my hoodie and T-shirt and WOW. I feel like and first class craftsman. 👍😜. No, jokes aside, they are awesome and I’m glad to be able to help support you in this way. I’ve been at this type industry all my life beginning at age 6 and I’m 56 now. However, I’m still learning and you’re one of the best UA-cam information providers for our line of work. Your wittiness and overall good ole boy candor is to be admired. Wishing you and your family the best this new year and looking forward to many more awesome instructional videos coming soon. Take care. Don’t ever stop what you are doing. You’re a blessing to all of us. 😉
I can't believe you spent that kind of money on a saw stand... That said, I did spend $5k on a road bike this summer. Different strokes for different folks I suppose!
even at a 1000 would still be too much... been at a miter box my entire life as well, the 200 dollar dewalt stand works just fine. on that note, the review was educational and the company should send you the extra brackets for making this video.
15 year high-end, custom GC here and I think the dewalt stand is a total joke. Accuracy and cutoff support is almost nonexistent for pre-finished and heavy, long materials
Thanks for your videos, you’ve motivated me to install Crown moulding in my home. So I went to hardware store and bought some what I thought was traditional Crown. After I got it home I noticed it basically only has one side with a spring angle. What would this type of Crown be used for? Can I still use it or is it meant for building out bigger Crown?
Looking into purchasing the Fastcap Best Fence Pro. To me it just seems like there was significantly more thought put into its design. It does everything this one does and more in a much easier to transport package. Oh, and it’s a 3rd the price.
I just ordered mine .... looking at the cut hub (price) made me look around at other alternatives..... it's so much cheaper I figure its gotta be miles better than what I'm using now , and not so expensive that I cant upgrade in a few yrs if I choose
How is the availability for repair parts? I can see this for when I was doing a lot of field work, but now I'm disabled in my shop so don't need this kind of portability.
hey bro I never comment but I just want to check in - hoping your ok been a while since you've posted something. i can't express how much you and Spencer Lewis have helped me. I know I'm learning the 'right' way. all the best to you and yours in the year ahead.
great demo presentation, as usual! Not sure what they were thinking, not giving you a prototype to test out in the field a yr ago while they finished product development... You're literally the perfect spokesperson. Hope they at least give u the extra extensions for free, you're prob gonna end up selling more Cut-Hubs for them than anyone else, without even trying! Thanks for the vid & good luck on the property✌
Hi. I watched one of your videos where you used a small tool to mark out for cutting crown molding around a bull nose corner. I need to do the same thing, but the bull nose corner is larger, like a 2 inch radius. Can you show how to cut and attach molding around that?
Good day Richard. Thank you for all of your videos. I am a loyal follower and have taken up the task of installing crown in my new house. I have a problem with a cut I need your assistance with. The Starrett 505P angle finder is indicating 30 degrees on an inside corner. I have tried everything to make this cut but it come out too open on the ceiling side. It's a 45 spring angle on a 5-1/4" crown. I am using a 10" miter saw. Please help. thank you
Im not sure if id like that set up or not. I use a Rousseau 2780 table saw stand and outfeed and i think it's the best thing ever. And a modified dewalt miter saw stand. I know exactly what you mean by catch all table....my table saw outfeed table turns into one
I love your humor! But, I think your wife had a different idea about what you were talking about when you kept saying Cut Hubby.... I would sleep lightly tonight!
I really I love your channel. I enjoy learning new tricks from you. But one thing bothers me as they watch you use your miter saw. I personally hate clean up and walking over the little cut pieces on the ground after I've made various cuts. I use a bucket to throw the scraps in so I don't have to handle them twice , clean-up is easy, no more stepping on pieces. I love your Channel , great job.
I bought a Dewaukee hoodie. Why? Because its a nice idea to have one to wear to Home Depot and to support this guy for sharing all of this great information on the carpentry trade. I sincerely appreciate ALL of these videos. THANK YOU!!!
I install computer chip manufacturing equipment. Some of the tools have a dozen or more stainless steel gas lines, Nitrogen, Oxygen and some very exotic other gases. We have built tubing bending tables and began building them 2' wide and 8' long with a full size shelf midway. We keep our tools on the shelf so they aren't in the way when we bend our tubing!
time is money and if that saves you time your making money and that is so worth the money. As R & R always says buy once cry once. Any updates on you flip property?
It still seems overpriced to me, before someone says quality, all aluminum. I spent $3600 on an aluminum brake that has way more moving parts/weight and the cut off tools themselves. I guess them being the only real straight out of the box miter saw wings justifies the price. I could see spending $1000-1500 for 2 stands and a mounting plate.
The guy that taught me reminds me of you. he can do it all and is extremely precise in his work and takes it extremely serious which is why he’s so successful. He can also do a heel flip to 5 0 grind on a handrail with a skateboard. Haha
Can you quantify the increase in production after using this? Is there real tangible numbers to justify the price tag? Does it shave off a day of work? A few hours? Or does it just make the job more enjoyable?
Bahahahahahhaha. If you think it could shave a day off your not a carpenter. A better finished result. Thats what you get. No saved time. Go call your hack carpenter.
@@smokingcheeba420 Not sure what you mean by that with your comments. The point I was trying to make is if there is no quantifiable increase in production, then the only ROI is derived from enjoyment. I agree with you tho. A good carpenter doesnt need expensive tools to make a "better" product. But expensive tools can increase productivity.
Since they’re the only game in town, for the extent of their features, they can pretty much charge anything they want. They seem nice, but as a machinist and engineer, I don’t see $3400 ($1400-$1500 seems fair, considering the machined leg supports). Competition and volume will lower the price in the future I’m sure. But if it gets the job done efficiently $3400 is well worth the $ regardless of value.
Awesome review Richard I wish I needed this as bad as you do, but I don't do as much carpentry as you, but I can see how that bench would pay for itself in no time
I love how he says literally everything with a straight face
if you've not watched b4 that's his every vid face.. work mode maybe? .. or bot mode?
He actually retired from the Pro Poker world just because carpentry smells better and the tools are way cooler.
I did my whole house in crown molding because this guy motivated me
I've ripped out everything including wainscotting and putting in all different trim. Doors, windows, baseboard, wainscotting, and crown. All because Richard made me think I could do it.

Great review, looks like a great tool. For those of us who can’t afford the CUTHUB, I got Dewalt Stand with Best Fence Aluminum wings and Stop Blocks for about $600. While it is not a complete work station with table saw, it sets up quicker in a smaller level area.

Love the college analogy, it was spot on. Agree 110%!
Bro your editing skills are getting insane!! Keep it up my dude
Your camera-work just became 1000x sleeker seemingly out of nowhere. It's pretty unbelievable.
How do you like the Milwaukee 18v 12 in dual bevel miter saw vs the DEWALT flex volt? Looking at getting one so I don’t have to worry about power and am leaning a little more toward the Milwaukee. Also do you run the 12 ah or 8 ah on the Milwaukee?
I had a chance to use my buddies CH for a week. Top quality is an understatement rock solid and the stops were great!!! Would I purchase it?

I use one at work and I am not very impressed. The plastic locking lever that holds the legs broke on one almost immediately. Some jerk lost the little plastic piece that holds the saw to the stand where you clamp the table to the stand. So, lots of breakable easy to lose plastic pieces. Also, adjusting the height of the table on the chop saw is extremely difficult. You have to get on the ground and undo 4 allen set screws. Then lift your 35 pound sliding miter saw and the table level (while on the ground) and then tighten the set screws. This is only possible if you have an assistant that isn't totally stupid. I just think it is expensive to have these design flaws. You should be able to level the chop saw to the tables with something that you can screw in and out and make micro adjustments. If your table isn't set right, your blade will bind and KAPOW!!! It shouldn't be that difficult.

I put a hold on my mothers custom prosthetic leg for now until I use the cut hub on enough jobs to buy her a new one. A peg leg IS fortunately something you can make out of wood.
is it possible to position the table saw feature between both CutHub stands so that you would have support feeding a board going in
as well as support out feeding?
On my Dewalt battery table saw I sometimes use a feather board (mine is a plastic Kreg one) just in front of the blade for long stock that I am ripping. Note: Never ever put a feather board in line or in front of a table saw blade.
I love watching reviews about things I'll never have the need for. Although, we're planning on buying a new house in the next year and doing all the trim myself so maybe...
Wait a min, it's hot and humid in Dallas?
Completely not related to this video, but I’m installing shiplap in my own house and having issues getting tight around trim that’s not 100% level. House has settled I suppose and things are far from squared and perfect. Can you maybe do a video on a full shiplap install and what you do around these problems????
Love your stuff man and learned a lot... thank you either way!
Do you have any problems with the knob pieces coming off as that’s one hint wish they would change ! I keep losing mine when taking miter saw on and off. Also wish they would have legs so you could use just one side with miter saw
Richard. I just got my hoodie and T-shirt and WOW. I feel like and first class craftsman. 👍😜. No, jokes aside, they are awesome and I’m glad to be able to help support you in this way. I’ve been at this type industry all my life beginning at age 6 and I’m 56 now. However, I’m still learning and you’re one of the best UA-cam information providers for our line of work. Your wittiness and overall good ole boy candor is to be admired. Wishing you and your family the best this new year and looking forward to many more awesome instructional videos coming soon. Take care. Don’t ever stop what you are doing. You’re a blessing to all of us. 😉
I can't believe you spent that kind of money on a saw stand...
That said, I did spend $5k on a road bike this summer. Different strokes for different folks I suppose!
Road bike? That is an essential purchase. Can't live without a road bike.
The term you are looking for to describe the proper alignment of the two sections is "Coplanar". Another really great video! Keep up the great work.
Loved the Cut Hub review, but a turtle tattoo! 😂
even at a 1000 would still be too much... been at a miter box my entire life as well, the 200 dollar dewalt stand works just fine.
on that note, the review was educational and the company should send you the extra brackets for making this video.
15 year high-end, custom GC here and I think the dewalt stand is a total joke. Accuracy and cutoff support is almost nonexistent for pre-finished and heavy, long materials
I guess you have bought all your tools at Harbor Freight, right?
@finishcarpentrytv where do you go in the Dallas metroplex to match hard to find trim profiles? Please and thanks
Thanks for your videos, you’ve motivated me to install Crown moulding in my home. So I went to hardware store and bought some what I thought was traditional Crown. After I got it home I noticed it basically only has one side with a spring angle. What would this type of Crown be used for? Can I still use it or is it meant for building out bigger Crown?
Looking into purchasing the Fastcap Best Fence Pro. To me it just seems like there was significantly more thought put into its design. It does everything this one does and more in a much easier to transport package. Oh, and it’s a 3rd the price.
I just ordered mine .... looking at the cut hub (price) made me look around at other alternatives..... it's so much cheaper I figure its gotta be miles better than what I'm using now , and not so expensive that I cant upgrade in a few yrs if I choose
@@jacobford5299 nice!
How is the availability for repair parts? I can see this for when I was doing a lot of field work, but now I'm disabled in my shop so don't need this kind of portability.
Looking to get a laser measure. The one in your links isn’t available anymore. Is there another one you recommend?
hey bro I never comment but I just want to check in - hoping your ok been a while since you've posted something. i can't express how much you and Spencer Lewis have helped me. I know I'm learning the 'right' way.
all the best to you and yours in the year ahead.
great demo presentation, as usual! Not sure what they were thinking, not giving you a prototype to test out in the field a yr ago while they finished product development... You're literally the perfect spokesperson. Hope they at least give u the extra extensions for free, you're prob gonna end up selling more Cut-Hubs for them than anyone else, without even trying! Thanks for the vid & good luck on the property✌
Hi. I watched one of your videos where you used a small tool to mark out for cutting crown molding around a bull nose corner. I need to do the same thing, but the bull nose corner is larger, like a 2 inch radius. Can you show how to cut and attach molding around that?
Edit: I have to fit baseboard, not crown molding
that is one sweet setup. It's pretty cool that you're on your game enough to make a rig like that profitable.
I play a $2500 Gibson Les Paul that never made me 10 cents.
It’s only money. We can’t take it with us
Yes u can take ur money wit u, just put it in ur will homie along wit ur best suit u ant to be wearing too, u can had the last laugh on ur way out
@SEAL CYCLE yea, once you have it. a newbie fresh out of highschool is basically rejected on sheer tool cost
Good day Richard. Thank you for all of your videos. I am a loyal follower and have taken up the task of installing crown in my new house. I have a problem with a cut I need your assistance with. The Starrett 505P angle finder is indicating 30 degrees on an inside corner. I have tried everything to make this cut but it come out too open on the ceiling side. It's a 45 spring angle on a 5-1/4" crown. I am using a 10" miter saw. Please help. thank you
How do you calibrate the tape to the blade?
I have a cheap Ryobi, I bought the matching stand and love it, so much better than squatting on the ground.
That looks real nice ... just curious if you have checked out / compared to the fastcap best fence pro?
Those TrackTube crown stops and end caps really make the setup worth it!😁
Must be covid related
Im not sure if id like that set up or not. I use a Rousseau 2780 table saw stand and outfeed and i think it's the best thing ever. And a modified dewalt miter saw stand. I know exactly what you mean by catch all table....my table saw outfeed table turns into one
That is totally worth the price. look at the engineering and heft to it. Its all about efficiency and work flow and that equals money in your pocket.
Awesome work... How would you do wainscoting along stairs?
I ordered on of your sweatshirts over a month ago. Now the store is closed and the sweatshirt was never delivered.
I love your humor! But, I think your wife had a different idea about what you were talking about when you kept saying Cut Hubby.... I would sleep lightly tonight!
How about a review video on the cut hub? Pros and cons would be awesome!
I really I love your channel. I enjoy learning new tricks from you. But one thing bothers me as they watch you use your miter saw. I personally hate clean up and walking over the little cut pieces on the ground after I've made various cuts. I use a bucket to throw the scraps in so I don't have to handle them twice , clean-up is easy, no more stepping on pieces. I love your Channel , great job.
Lol 😂
He said “I recommend yes to both of those guys”🤣🤣🤣🤣
I bought a Dewaukee hoodie. Why? Because its a nice idea to have one to wear to Home Depot and to support this guy for sharing all of this great information on the carpentry trade. I sincerely appreciate ALL of these videos. THANK YOU!!!
I install computer chip manufacturing equipment. Some of the tools have a dozen or more stainless steel gas lines, Nitrogen, Oxygen and some very exotic other gases. We have built tubing bending tables and began building them 2' wide and 8' long with a full size shelf midway. We keep our tools on the shelf so they aren't in the way when we bend our tubing!
Are the tape measures adjustable? Is it possible to zero them on the blade of any 10-12"" mitre saw?
I wish college only cost me 3,400, I had to pay them to let me do the work, and I don't have an optimus prime stand.. you win this round my friend.
Just found your channel, when do the next batch of shirts go on sale?
Great video describing how this beast of a saw horse works. That thing looks awesome!
time is money and if that saves you time your making money and that is so worth the money. As R & R always says buy once cry once. Any updates on you flip property?
And you get to write off tools on your taxes !!
Keep making it fun man❤️ Love your insight, and the way you keep things simple👊
It still seems overpriced to me, before someone says quality, all aluminum. I spent $3600 on an aluminum brake that has way more moving parts/weight and the cut off tools themselves. I guess them being the only real straight out of the box miter saw wings justifies the price. I could see spending $1000-1500 for 2 stands and a mounting plate.
The guy that taught me reminds me of you. he can do it all and is extremely precise in his work and takes it extremely serious which is why he’s so successful. He can also do a heel flip to 5 0 grind on a handrail with a skateboard. Haha
Rich's dry humor is on point at the beginning 😂
You had me at "you get to decide what hole you get to put it in" lol
Wishful thinking..
Well he did say you’ll need to pawn your wife’s wedding ring to get it, so I’m going to assume you’ll be hunting for a new one.
That’s a great stand I’m just not see what cost $3400. As long as you like them that’s all that matters👍
If you like it,and it makes you more productive,it's worth every penny.Write it off as a business expence.
is there anyway to lock the table saw down on that plate?
Any updates on hoodies? No shipping updates no nothing.
Can you quantify the increase in production after using this? Is there real tangible numbers to justify the price tag? Does it shave off a day of work? A few hours? Or does it just make the job more enjoyable?
Bahahahahahhaha. If you think it could shave a day off your not a carpenter. A better finished result. Thats what you get. No saved time. Go call your hack carpenter.
@@smokingcheeba420 Not sure what you mean by that with your comments. The point I was trying to make is if there is no quantifiable increase in production, then the only ROI is derived from enjoyment. I agree with you tho.
A good carpenter doesnt need expensive tools to make a "better" product. But expensive tools can increase productivity.
Since they’re the only game in town, for the extent of their features, they can pretty much charge anything they want. They seem nice, but as a machinist and engineer, I don’t see $3400 ($1400-$1500 seems fair, considering the machined leg supports). Competition and volume will lower the price in the future I’m sure. But if it gets the job done efficiently $3400 is well worth the $ regardless of value.
Yep. The Chinese will see to that...
I remember you was asking for ideas to level out your dewalt stands in one of your videos some time ago.
What was the $200 alternative?
What's up man? Love your work. Just a quick question. What blades on your miter saw do you use most?
Cut hub should pay you. Great video
Well explained. Worth every penny . 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Would be tempted to hang a shelf under the add on bench, sized to hold the other tools.
Awesome review Richard I wish I needed this as bad as you do, but I don't do as much carpentry as you, but I can see how that bench would pay for itself in no time
