Thank you for your help everyone!!! My table saw top is now aligned in the realm of 0.05mm thank you so much. Oh my goodness I'm so happy, this has taken days [emoji1787]

Appreciate the expertise from you all, thank you. Guess I'm making another big green shed trip to get the Dremel parts.

If there is one upside to all of this it's made me much more comfortable...

Have a look at the photos I just posted. This table saw has been weirding me out since I got it. It's like a cabinet saw in the body of a contractor saw. This weird hybrid of the two. Hare and Forbes...

@malb I've attached a photo of how the trunnions / Arbor mounts. Not sure how you would modify that.

Cast iron top mounts through holes in the sheet metal with bolts as pictured.

I think I...

Hi everyone,

I've spent a good part of today trying to square my miter slot to the blade. It's given me no end of grief.

I cannot seem to get it square beyond .5/.6mm. From what I read online...

Man I'm just up the road, I just don't have $1100 at the moment [emoji28][emoji1787]

So great Dennis! I'm really excited that you are involved on these forums, I found your videos independently recently and have been intending to use a lot of your ideas as I setup my shop.

Keep up...

Thanks Dennis, not your fault at all! You've got to use what is readily available to you, and unfortunately in Australia we don't seem to have taken up HMR MDF products as a common thing yet.

That...

I'd be interested to hear how you go with it, and what you think vs MDF from the big green shed.

Noting Big green MDF seems significantly cheaper.

I think the production and finish value of...

Well your Perth prices are better than the Sydney prices for Forescolor.

I did some calling around about valchromat and forescolor in Sydney today after watching Dennis's video.

Valchromat is distributed by CSR / Himmel here in Australia and will cost you $168 + GST...

Thanks everyone for the input. HVG the NSW distributor of wilsonart are apparently moving away from the compact stuff because it's so hard to machine as mentioned above. Part of the issue is that...

Hey everyone, I need to make some sacrificial fences for my table saw. Recently I've been following Ask Woodman on YouTube and he shows how to build the ones he sells. Auxiliary Table Saw Fence -...

Thanks for the tips everyone! Sone good ideas, that I've taken to YouTube searching. I've ended up finding a playlist by Ask Woodman on how to make awesome auxiliary fences that use t-nuts to attach...

Hey everyone, just got my new beseimeyer fence from Timbecon to add to my contractor saw. It's awesome!

A few questions on ideal setup.

As you can see in the photo, there is 5mm between the...

You're a bloody Quick draw Ben [emoji23]

I certainly will my friend.

I'd be willing to buy it, just won't be transiting through Brisbane until Dec / Jan. Happy to take it up with you then if you haven't found a use for it

Disregard, thought been had only taken the hammers

One other thing, I mentioned to get machinery I really liked the in-built wheels on the Laguna. They said a lot of customers have had issues with the metal on the cabinet bending trending the wheels...

Thanks for the help everyone. @Treecycle I just pulled the trigger and bought the aftermarket fence from Timbecon as well as a 230kg mobile base.

Next up on the list will be a wixey wr700 digital...

Hey Carl,

I recently reached out to the various machinery suppliers in regards to the Laguna. Short story, the timeline for securing one is quite long and looking to get longer. Laguna have said...

Thanks for the tip. I have a router so will probably look to use that before moving in to the world of Dados.

The riving knife does fall and rise with the blade, and keeps a consistent distance....

Can this take a dado stack? (I'm a total noob)

@aldav I'm really fortunate in that this model actually comes with a riving knife and blade guard . One thing I'm interested to know, do these table saws have the ability to take a dado stack?...

Hahaha, I was wondering if that would come up. No it wasn't the saw, it was a council ride on mowing man who pretended it didn't happen for fear of losing his job lol.

Thanks for the link, I'll...

I'm getting ready for a move far North. Appreciate all the tips here!

Hey everyone, name's Juke, hailing from Sydney.

Have been gradually getting in to woodworking over the last few years and have regularly looked at the tips here on the forums.

Thanks Riverbuilder. It has come with a riving knife fitted, an overhead guard and a good new blade. Winning in that way.

I wouldn't have purchased without those items.

Hi guys,

Pretty much my first post here. I just picked up a HAFCO ST-10SD off Gumtree yesterday. Considering its age it's in pretty good nick and is running well. 479817
