I previously used this design for a radial.
Table saw blade lift mechanism.
One of the advantages with this table saw lift mechanism is that the crosspieces pushing against the saw will compensate the inclination in the disc caused by the weight of the motor.
Even so my disc is not at a perfect 90 degrees angle with the table board at least not with all the heights i give to the disc but for now it is good enough for me.
A bandsaw would be better but i want to make sure this can be built with minimal tools.
The first iteration was based on alcala guitars mobile bandsaw base.
Bearings allow the blade the freedom of movement while a curved cutout allows it to.
Hello friends i decided to make a new table saw for my workshop.
When i need something better i ll have to make a decision.
Lift mechanism having cut the rectangular parts with an improvised table saw i proceeded to make the other cuts with a jigsaw.
Homemade table saw build.
I ll need to decide whether to improve my homemade table saw or to buy a good.
The blade is housed in a blade lift made out wooden panels with a pivot point and slot for the lift mechanism.
