I think this is the only channel that as soon as I see the notification I watch the video. Great content and still getting better. Keep up the great work!
I know what you mean. I even give it a thumbs up before looking at it. Always great & useful content.
You are not the only one, my friend.
Haha me too! I actually get excited to watch it too
That Magswitch at the end of that apparatus is genius. I’ve even caught my bees Meyer fence slipping a time or two. ( I don’t think that’s how you spell that)
This is pretty sweet. You mentioned not wanting make a permanent spot for the mag stop for convenience, but you could get the best of both worlds. Just add a section on the far side that has a slot that normally catches on the yellow wings, but when you twist it, it drops into place. This will make it so that it doesn't drag on the table, but it can be set with just two quick twists. With a 3d printer and a heavy fill, you should be able to make something sturdy and precise enough that it won't wobble fairly easily.
Hahaha I love how perfectly timed your videos seem to be for my planned purchases. First, I was finally considering purchasing a good reliable (accurate fence) TableSaw. Then just a week or so earlier you’d posted your Laguna vs. Sawstop review, update, commentary thing. Which I loved and ultimately also went with the F2 just 2 weeks or so later! And have been wicked happy with it!
Now, you make a video that includes some good (accurate but not outrageously expensive) setup blocks! When not just 4 hours earlier I’d finally pulled the trigger on a set from Amazon that ironically cost near the exact same amount plus or minus a few cents. But I love the case these come in WAAAY more. Haha so I bought these now and will return the ones I went with.
Thanks again. Always love the things you do. Would love to see a follow-up Laguna saw review one of these days.
Fantastic job Travis. Keep pursuing UA-cam Greatness. Your channel is one of the best ones on UA-cam.
Very nice! I took a bit different approach to storage and still workable fence as I integrated a router table fence. Very nice design!
Great idea here. I have the same laguna saw and took my push stick clips off a while back as well as the clear wings of the dust collection over mount in anticipation of it being easier to use if I do choose to implement that. Keep the vids a coming. Cheers
Really cool upgrade, Travis~! I must've seen/imagined it wrong from the beginning, but if you swapped the positions of the 1-2-3 block and the mag switch (or similar design mod) and made a caddy for the mag switch, you could activate it from it's "stored location" clearance hole to make contact with
Thanks for sharing this one~!!
I don’t even get out to my ‘shop’ often (maybe once a month at best) but I still watch every video!
This. is. AWESOME! I really appreciate this series!
OMG i wanted to make something for my Laguna. This ia AMAZING!! would love more Laguna saw accessories.
Great idea that I need to build. Thank you.
Can you give insight to using brads when you used the CA glue?
I love this......great shop addition
Cool idea, thanks for sharing.
Whoa...tell us more about that colored MDF!
Mag switch for the win👌🏼 Use PLA for prints? Would love another video on your 3D printers and how you run them
Nice organizer!! Very useful!!
Fantastic. 🔥
Hey Travis Sam here from Alaska like your videos as always.. it's interesting to me that your fence moves that much. I have the very same Saw I got mine about 4 months before you posted your saw comparison video to the Saw stop brand. Mine does not move like that. How hard are you pushing it. A set of clear cut stock guides goes very well on this model of saw. I also added an extension wing made a frame and dropped a piece of half inch plywood in it. Thank you for the video
I will definitely do this (once I get a table saw. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for the great videos. As I setup my garage workshop I'll look at making a caddy like that. You've introduced me for the first time to "Colored MDF". Do you have a video that discusses this or if not where do you find the benefits and uses? Wouldn't it be cheaper if you use regular MDF and paint it?
Thank you for the video
I love this !! I have the exact saw and almost the same accessories to put in. I'm guessing you don't have actual plans with measurements as you just "built as you went"?
Cool, thanks for posting this video.
I really like your vids, sometimes I just think your doing the most 😂🤣😅, but keep up the good work, and thanks for the vids. Have a blessed day.
I just loved
Hey Travis great video an, got a question, what model Dewalt miter saw do you have? Wondering because I have a big ole Chicago electric that just needs too much room for the cabinet build...
The Magswitch feature is great and I've never seen it before. Good idea!
Awsome project😎
Love this, the only thing I need to figure out is how to modify the design to accommodate permanently mounted Jessem stock guides.
Have you considered a built in router table or similar to the extended side of your Laguna yet? I love the idea of augmenting the fence this way and am adding it to my project list!
Great idea as my table saw looks just like your prior to fence caddy. Where did you find the "gray color MDF"? I have been looking for this type of product and can't find it in Middle TN. Thanks.
Another great project!
You have a great video and project here and I appreciate your building it for us. I will consider something similar for myself when my fence comes in.
I t looks really great. I love the color.
I did notice that you are cutting MDF without a mask? I don't see any dust, so your collection may be great, but is it safe enough not to use a mask?
Cool project! When are you going to paint the lumber cart?
You got some thing going on.
Been doing factory work since 1988 and the 5S Kaisen type process is prevalent in my mind. You’re doing an excellent job because I’ve been watching it for the past three days
I in no way traveling to Ohio to visit you. Unless it’s for a concert of red wanting blue.
Yet another AWESOME video on an AWESOME idea! Love your creativity and the humor. I will be making one of these, soon, for my table saw, but I'm also going to implement a space for something you left out. Not sure if you did it on purpose, don't use them, or just forgot about them but, I noticed you didn't put a spot for featherboards.
Great video
That's a pretty cool solution for the relevant clutter that's always on or near the fence. Just curious but I wouldn't think you'd need to clamp the far end of the fence since the material is already cut at that point and the feed pressure is much closer to the front of the fence where the workpiece contacts the blade and the fence is much more rigid. There should be no feed pressure at the back of the fence under normal circumstances. I think it's recommended that the fence be set up so that it's actually a tiny bit farther away from the blade at the back end. Comments?
I just bought a Laguna F1 table saw , I was surprised how many design flaws were there , especially the fence and dust collection , It'll do the job but I was expecting more
interesting, i like the idea, may make a similar one but add some sleeved holes even with the face to make sacrificial fences easier to do, just put a few small screws through a metal reinforced holes and good to go
I like it.
nice job!
hey brother i just purchased the same table saw, can you make plans for this build or give the measurements you used please..
Hey there big T. You dream up all of your creative ideal's while you sleep at night. Which is great 👍..
The 3d printing would have been a great spot to recommend skill share and would be a very natural transition to it.
When did you upgrade to Laguna? How much difference is there in that saw compared to your Delta?
Every Video makes my Shop List Longer, keep it up...
Travis, any feedback on the Laguna table saw since you have had it a little while?
I don't even have a table saw and I still watched. Ordering those 1 2 3 blocks
Does the weight of the caddy pull the fence out of square when it is beyond the wings of the saw?
I love the idea and am going to build one for my table. Were did you get the blade guard dust collector from?
Came with my Laguna
@@ShopNation THANKS
Good content. Minor editing suggestion: Needed a comparison shot of the flex you get with/without the magnet.
Good tip!
Oh yeah...loving this one! #shopgreatness
How’s the dust collection on your Laguna?
I have the same saw as you do, but my fence doesn't flex like your's does. My F2 is new and has a few upgrades that you don't have. One major one is a built in digital tilt gauge.
Do you still have the f2 and no issues still happy with it
cool
Muy bien amigo
If you had extended the caddy the full lengthof your fence, you could have built the magswitch into the caddy so all you had to do was turn it on and off as needed.
Yes, but would have been very heavy, which is why I didn't go that route
@@ShopNation Fair enough.
Looks great bud,. Are you concerned that over time it will collect a lot of dust.. I use to have something similar and all it did was collect dust. Granted my dust collection on my table saw was terrible...maybe yours will be better. I know keep everything in a small cabinet with drawers, right under the wing.
Definitely a concern! We shall see
Ok, this is probably not the best place for this, but I just had an idea. I can't draw but still had to share. Miter saw cabinet for small shop built like those fold up craft cabinets. Back section - about a foot wider than the miter saw on either side (3-4 foot total width), Flat back panel. Top has open shelving, then a counter for the saw with dropdown, then shelves or drawers below. On each side is a wing that is half the wideth of the back section. It is attached by hinges to the FRONT of the top shelf and the front of the bottom shelves/drawers. Top of it has another open (with small rails or doors to keep things from falling out)shelf, bottom has counter that matches with the counter on the back, and then more drawers below. All of this is on locking wheels. When closed, it forms a big box with cut outs on either side between the top shelf and the counter. When open it is a 6-8 foot miter saw station with storage.
Ok, I got that out. I am good now. *deep breath*
You dont have a Sawstop table saw so I can't take your videos seriously!!😂😂
Just kidding!! Thought I would give you a hard way to go there...
I'm new to your videos so I've been checking them out.
Who is the publisher for the Fusion software you use for 3-D rendering? I thought there was a shortcut to it in the notes, but alas, there was not
Fusion 360 by Autodesk
excellent video! any plan to add the links to the video
Added now, sorry hit publish too quick!
@@ShopNation Thanks!
I love your 3d printer. My friend bought one and I was about to, but then I learned how long it takes. You did yours overnight, but some of his creations are taking 20-40 hours! I'll bet if you had to wait on your printer, you could have created the same thing with a block of wood and router in less time than it took you to start the printer, LOL. I love it, though. It looks great.
Learning how to speed up prints is a skill unto itself. I learned early in the pandemic when I was printing face shields 24/7 for local hospitals. One shield initially took like 3 hours to print. Over the course of a week or so I was able to get that down to two shields every 30 minutes...on the same printer with the same filament. There are a huge number of optimizations possible, so don't let your friend's experience dissuade you from jumping into 3D printing!
@@StormGod29 What did you use for the clear part of the shield? I'm not familiar with any filament that's crystal clear like what would be needed for the vision part of the shield? Then, again, I haven't really looked, either. lol I ask because, being such a pain to put a dust mask on then a face shield with goggles and then ear protection on top of that everytime I want to use the table saw or miter saw, I thought how nice it'd be to have a clear mask that I could slip on like a helmet, but with room for the over-the-ear ear protection that I use because things stuck in my ear (like ear plugs) really irritate the heck out of my ear canals. To have the ability to plop a full-head mask on over my ear protection would save probably about 30 seconds of prep time. The old rule is true: The faster and easier it is to use PPE, the more apt we are to actually use it. So, that being said, if I could find some material to use, even as an insert (probably the only way, really), I could 3D print something for my head and affix the clear stuff onto the face opening. Any suggestions are appreciated and thanks in advance! :)
@@Lakusus don't get excited over a new filament, the face shields were PLA and then you slip in a sheet of transparency film to form the shield. Everyone was really printing headbands and then getting the shield from Amazon. I hear you on PPE; the easier and more comfortable the more compliance you can expect.
👍👍👍👍👍
Dam you good
Can we get an update on the laguna? These things take months to come in so is it worth the wait?
I would say no. Look into alternatives from harvey, grizzly or king Canada depending what’s available in your area. They all offer the same 2hp cabinet saw in different branding made in the same factory in Taiwan. Brand doesn’t mean much as they aren’t doing any engineering or design, they are just picking specs and features out of a catalogue.
To add my personal experience, I was set on the laguna F2 until I touched it in person next to the king Canada. The laguna was much less stout in every aspect but had a nicer look and better throat plate.
I was so turned off by the laguna (especially being the more expensive choice) that I decided to wait 4 weeks for the king Canada saw even though the laguna was available same day.
In the end, thanks to covid, the king Canada was delayed further and that pushed me to a sawstop 3hp PCS. I don’t regret it at all, but do understand it’s not affordable for everyone.
I looked into becoming a member, but couldn't find a function of the website to ask questions. It says you have Unlimited Access as a lifetime member, but then says all tutorials, 1 Master class + 10 courses.
I watched this with volume off in a waiting room so this might have been answered. Why not extend the rack so the magnet was held at table level and always at end. Then you just have to twist it on or off as it is always in the right spot.
That was the original plan, however if I were to extend beyond the cast iron table section I couldn't use it. If it's mobile I can still use it on the back fence rail. Either way works really
I was not thinking permanent attachment but a cut out so it would be held in place by sides and you could lift it out vertically. Similar to the spot you made for it on the organizer. That way when you need to hold some art work up on the fridge it just lifts out.
Please do not think I do not like the concept/ design. It is pretty slick. Your channel has inspired me to organize my shop better. Made cabinets for the end of the garage last Christmas because I liked how nice your mitersaw setup looked.
The saw should be clear of stuff. Something moving, catching, or just distracting you will cause your finger to fly off and into that "organizer".
laguna needs to build a magnetic switch inside their fence so that when you lock it, it locks on both sides
Bumma, some days I feel left handed so I swap sides with my fence ( yes it’s same both sides ) so I’m going to have to pass on this build.
Travis, you're in Ohio now. You need to add some Scarlet to all of that Grey , buddy! :D
barf!
You really shouldn't be applying any pressure to the fence after the start of the blade unless you want kick back. The amount of flex before the blade is what's important. Nice organiser though.
Where is the 3D area?
DUDE! Patent that magswitch idea NOW before some saw manufacturer steals it! I'm serious!!!
Okay I commented before the end. I thought you were going to incorporate the magnet into the fence. I know you could figure out a way to do that so that is the idea you should patent.
I like the build, great job as usual ... but I'm not sold on the idea of having a load of stuff "organised" beside a live sawblade... 🤔
Don't most table saws have an adjustment screw/bolt to tighten the fence lock down? That amount of play having to necessitate a Mag-switch block is a deal breaker for that saw. Seriously, if that's the best it can do, a major design flaw on a major component like the fence = find a better saw. And no, not gonna look for a good aftermarket fence to fix the manufacture's poor design. Nice design on the accessory tray.
CA glue to hold it while the wood glue dries and brads just for fun
Good idea, I'll try birdwatching instead
.
A $2000+ table saw and the fence won't hold steady without a 3rd party attachment? Yikes
$1399 USD (even sub $2k in CAD) it does hold steady, if you don't reef on it.
I can't understand why you would get this saw when a super safe alternative is available for very little extra - may $1800 more.. How can anyone be so price sensitive when they are using it for 10 years or more and it works out to a few dollars a month for such life altering safety. Just don't get it.
This is the only shop that doesn't build anything.
That flex is unacceptable. You should do an update to your video where you compare it to the sawstop to let people know about this design flaw. You should have spent the extra money. I hope there weren’t a lot of people who bought the Laguna because of your video. They got scammed.
I wouldn't quite go that far...yes the fence flex is a concern but not scam-worthy
His video on the Laguna was VERY clear that he wasn't endorsing or even reviewing it yet, just explaining why he went that way. I bought a Laguna for a lot of the same reasons he listed and though there are limitations I would neither blame him nor regret my purchase. (Also Laguna support has been stellar when you reach out to them).
The fence is literally the most important part of the saw. If it flexes the saw isn’t worth the price tag.
@@StuartGeers does their customer support sent a fence that doesn’t flex when you call with concerns? It isn’t a cheap saw, you should not be getting flex like that when you spend that kind of money. They should stick to bandsaws.
The laguna fence is definitely undersized vs competing saws in the same price range. I guess it was a trade off for the fancy looks and paint.
