Great job. I have the Craftsman #21833, the sister to the Rigid. I replaced my rear panel bolts with longer ones thru a 2 x 2. Thank you for sharing. Everyone stay warm, safe, happy and healthy. From Henrico County Virginia
The Craftsman #21833 definitely looks like it was made by the same maker as the Ridgid R4520. Thanks for checking out our video. Stay safe and have a great day!
Here in UK we have a table saw called lumber jack 10" saw with 5/8" bore , well It's the same saw as yours rebandged, Saws here would be a metric shafts and a short shaft only allowing single blades no trenching here its banded on safety rules .Well that aside thankyou for your idea. I am going to copy it as I have that very same tee bolt kit some where in workshop!
Thank you for your comment! It's interesting to learn about the similarities between the Ridgid R4520 and the Lumber Jack 10" saw in the UK. It seems like they are essentially the same saw with different branding.We're glad you found our idea helpful! Feel free to copy it, especially since you already have the tee bolt kit in your workshop. Happy woodworking!
Thanks for the kind words! You're absolutely right about the miter slot. It would definitely add versatility. Many people choose to add one to their outfeed table, even if they don't use a sled often. It's a great option to have. Thanks for the suggestion!
I'm sorry to hear about your experience with your table saw. That must have been very frightening and frustrating. It is important to ensure adequate dust collection is in place and that the saw cabinet is cleared on a regular basis. This would be the same for any saw as there are many opportunities for a fire to start when wood dust is floating around. Causes can be from overheated bearings to sparks from a chunk of metal embedded in a piece of wood. I am interested in hearing if you have a new saw and if you had any compensation from Ridgid? Thanks Paul
The saw was 2 years old and Rigid still offered to repair it. I told them it was totally my fault because I was using old wood and had not removed all of the nails. The blade hit a nail, caused a spark, and the shop vac that I was using didn’t pull the sawdust out quick enough. The kicker was that I had cleaned out the cabinet of dust just 3 days before the fire. I liked the saw. I wasn’t happy with the fence and had a Jessum fence on order. But I didn’t trust the saw to be fixed correctly so I chose to junk it. I then bought a Grizzly table saw and a big Grizzly dust collector.
I've built something similar. How do you fin it when trying to realign your saw? Mine's a massive pain because of it so I'm back to YT for inspiration on different styles. Something removable I think.
It was working well but I eventually took it off as we rearranged our shop...once again and ended up placing our router table at there instead. As per usual shop rearrangement process, the fold away table is now up against the wall somewhere in the shop. :(
scary... I was paying attention: you reenacted how I do all my woodworking projects LOL... This might be the easiest one I've seen. What I did was take two sawhorses and stacked this piece and that piece of 3/4" (that's not really 3/4") plywood to make an outfeed table... that worked for my project, but now I wanted something better. P.S. I think I have the same kind of hinges that's been sitting around for 20 years too... I guess that's a common thing to have in a shop?
It's funny how find it difficult to get rid off things. I'm really surprised when I actually get to use something that I had hanging around for years. The most common thing that happens is where I get rid of something that week just when I need it! ;)
@@DustyWorkbench I know... right? The stuff hangs around 20 years then you say "I'm Cleaning this $%*&!! up" so you toss it out and almost the very next week you realize that THAT was the vey thing you needed. It scares me to clean up... I find it stressful. The shop is supposed to be the fun retreat to escape stress... not cause such consternation!
@@DustyWorkbench One other question, does that gap between the outfeed table and saw surface cause you any trouble of your workpiece getting caught up on it? I'm wondering if there is a modification that you can make to eliminate that gap?
I haven't had any issues. I've set it so the edge is just slightly below the table top height. I suppose you could add a piece at the gap and connect it to the folding table with hinges so that it would stay flat when you fold the table down and stay flush with the folding extension when up. I'm guessing there would still be a gap to allow for movement of the extension up and down.

I was going to use it but then thought of using it for another project and I would have to figure out a way to attach to the saw and still have access to the inside of the saw.

Great work! Love that it slots into the T slot instead of having to drill into the saw.
Yes it does! It's nice that it can be removed easily as well for accessing the saw for maintenance or cleaning.

This piece and that piece and that piece. That's about how I build ship stuff too.
Thanks for a great video today got a lot of great inspiration and ideas hugs and kisses from grandma Sandy
Glad you enjoyed it
Nice work! Do you need to mill out miter slots for a sled?
Thanks for the kind words! You're absolutely right about the miter slot. It would definitely add versatility. Many people choose to add one to their outfeed table, even if they don't use a sled often. It's a great option to have. Thanks for the suggestion!
I had the same table saw until the sawdust collected in the cabinet and then caught on fire.

Turn the music up … I think the neighbors could barely hear it.

Mine is now done. I have 3 pictures that other might find useful but I see no way to add them here?
Oh coolz! If you like to send by email to contact@dustyworkbench.ca I can see if I can add to the end of this video with credit for your entry.
@@DustyWorkbench you have mail
you showed the folding shelf bracket. why didn't you use it?
I was going to use it but then thought of using it for another project and I would have to figure out a way to attach to the saw and still have access to the inside of the saw.

@@DustyWorkbench As a friend said: "If I had a dollar for every girl who found me unattractive, eventually they would find me attractive."
I was interested until the music got ridiculous. All these videos get ruined with with music.
