Get Perfect Table Saw Cuts with Micro Fine Contractor Table Saw Alignment. Contractor PALS
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 вер 2024
- I have noticed some serious burn marks on my work pieces after running them over the table saw. Something must be pinched and today I will show you #WWTD, What Would Tyler Do, to Get Perfect Table Saw Cuts with Micro Fine Contractor Table Saw Alignment. I am going to use a pair of small micro adjust tools called PALS from In-LineIndustries to help easily tune my Delta contractor style table saw and hold it in place. I have had these PALS on my saw for about 3 years now and this is the first time I have had to adjust since I installed them.

Starting a new playlist of videos today called What would Tyler Do? #WWTD. I will answer your questions on how to complete a task in the shop. Ask me something that you would like to see in the comments and it might make it into the series! Have a great weekend!
Great video. Wish I saw this years ago. I am so surprised you don't have a SawStop or Harvey, or Powermatic saw by now. Your channels been running long enough, you should have two new houses, building your 2nd. dream shop, and extended your shop to have a full metal shop just to the left of it. But seriously... Great video. Thank you for your hard work.
Funny you say that......new saw might be incoming shortly! Thanks for the kind words Neil...we try to live simply!
I put PALS on my Ridgid saw many years ago and they work very well.
Which size did you use?
@@jameshansen2740 I found my package. I installed them in 2010 using the 3/8" stud for Ridgid. I even had a note that I spoke to Jerry the owner of the company I guess. I hope you give them a try and like them. My saw is from 2008.
Now if somebody would just make a riving knife kit for contractor saws. I've 20 year old Delta that works fine but doesn't have a riving knife, kits didn't work and the factory splitter isn't a viable riving knife. Thank you for this video, beats a hammer and wood.
Tyler, great video! Two questions I have; # 1 - I’m new to UA-cam I’ve made two videos, and in over a month I only have 100 viewers😢 when I see people with thousands I’m not sure how to make that happen. # 2 - i’m using my phone to make videos which I just recently found out, will not pause during recording, and it seems like it takes hours to edit and post to UA-cam. WHAT WOULD TYLER DO? Again, great video appreciate any help you can offer. Thank you again.
Not sure why you put the run out on the blade and not the fence? I was always under the assumption that you wanted the blade parallel to the miter gauge slot for perfect 90’s and have the run out at the end of the rip fence.
My blade isn’t cutting straight? What would Tyler do to fix it?
Have you ever had to adjust the Unifence on the saw. Mine is very hard to lock not sure how to adjust it and not make it worst.
if the blade is a little bit away from the fence on one mitre slot, then doesnt it make it pinch using the other slot
One low-tech tip I've used for years to check how far 'out' the blade is from the miter slot, is to take a perfect straight-edge with parallel edges, that is as long or longer than the table front to back, and set that against 2 teeth leaning in the same direction (1 on the leading, 1 on the trailing edge of the blade), then use a caliper micrometer to measure between the straight edge and the slot, one measurement all the way to the front, the other all the way to the back. This method multiplies the error from the blade's 10" diameter, to the full length of the table.
The straight edge I use is one piece from one of those extruded aluminum rip cutting guides where 2 pieces are joined into an 8' 3" one. It is perfectly straight, and the sides are perfectly parallel. But any such piece of aluminum or steel bar, such as a metal yardstick, etc., would do. To make sure I'm not referencing off of a damaged tooth, I advance the blade one tooth at a time for a few teeth and re-check, making sure no gap appears.
So, no need to loosen the front trunnion? just checking. ordering for my Jet.
Thank you Tyler for , showing how to "shore up" the table saw blade. My Craftsman is also out of alignment so, now I'm going to get a hold of those brackets myself.
Tyler, what would you do to build a , multi level , short drill press station on wheels?
left the L out of would or were you trying wood with out a U to be clever?
It was mentioned in the video, you should definitely rotate the blade when using dial indicator.
Did u get the 5/16 size studs?? I have similar Delta 46-441 and waiting for my Pals to come from Amazon- flipped my saw upside down to seal off for dust collection port I made into the stand and when u got it up right the blade was extremely out of alignment- I’m hoping the paps work with no so “micro” adjustments too lol
Did it work out ?
@@LemonySnicket-EUC yes but it needed other adjustments lol the 2 big ass bolts that hold the arms below the bolts the pals go on we’re out of wack too- after hours of research and consulting w like everyone I know it took my new friend at the time I’d just met 5 seconds to spot it when I asked him to take a look lol but all in all I’ve gone through a whole blade since so it’s up and running like the USA made champ it is😎🇺🇸
I put thoswe on my old craftsman saw, about 20 years ago. they work great. howver in my case, the castings were so far out, that the saw had to be completly disassmbled and the trunion mounting holes had to be enlarged, to allow the devices room to move the truninion/blade to be true to square.
When I first tuned this saw I also had to drill out the trunions. You would think that would be simple enough for the OEM to get that right!
I have been struggling to get my Delta contractors saw properly aligned. The PALS may be the answer I have been looking for. Do you need to loosen one of the front trunion bolts when making the adjustments or is the entire process carried out on just the rear trunion? These things should be a standard feature on contractors saws.
Thanks for an eye opening video.
Tyler, thx for showing us those 2 trunion micro adjustment brackets for your Delta Contractor table saw. Very important info. Thx!
Also, beautiful shop! Looks great!👍👍👍🧑🔧🍺
Nice job Tyler! Thanks for sharing the video with us!💖👍😎JP
I've been working on Dust collection on my contractor saw. Do you find that opening you made in the back is enough? I have it closed in more, but I can't tilt the blade this way. I'm going to hook up a 2hp harbor freight collector.
Great tip for the PALS add-on. I have almost the identical Delta saw and the PALS saves a bunch of setup time. I also have the Unifence, like yours and want to point out one item: That rip fence extrusion is flippable (can be used on the opposite side of main fence base), so you need to be careful when doing any bevel rips, IF your fence is out by 3 thou, and now you are binding the blade.
As far as DC is concerned, I found a great template for the rear of that Delta saw on Dan Pattinson's site (DP shop talk?) It only work for non bevel cuts but does a great job for regular rips.
Great information. You really know your stuff. Thank you.
Thanks man!
What fence system do you have on your Delta?
It is a Unifence, also by delta. Don't think they make it anymore. Closest fence I have found to it's design is by Harvey.
Great video. Thanks for the instruction. I will try and figure out a question for you.
Cool! You will be hearing from me. Thanaks.
I wish I knew about this product about 15 years ago. Adjustment on a contractor saw is so time consuming.
Indeed, these have been fantastic for me!
@@DIYTyler what is a dust mask vs respirator
@@DIYTyler how loud is the dust collection system
How would you align your new cross cut saw?
Would love a shop tour!
It's been a couple of years, might be time! Thanks Mick
Thanks for this video, I had no idea 🤷🏼
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Hi Tyler 💯💯💯👍
Hey Gio, thanks for watching!
