Hi Mario! Congrats on your newest purchase :D!! I'm not a technician, I'm sorry but I think this table saw looks a bit like a Proxxon table saw. Because the specifications you describe here makes me think of my own miniature table saw, a 20 year old Proxxon, of which I must say is a fantastic machine in use.
ReplyDeleteBut I've learned one thing very well: they can be "killing" machines too.......once I had the bad luck that a small piece of wood was beaten by the saw blade into my direction and it grabbed the top of my thumb!! A huge gap was in my thumb was the result and the GP had to do his utmost best to sew it all together :S! I was lucky that my thumb was saved. It's about 12 years ago, but you can still see the scarr a bit ;O! Now I'm working with all safety I can think of: special glasses and I keep my fingers far away from the saw blade, because I've made some helpers to guide the wood along the saw blade!
I wish you a nice weekend and......work safe ;O!!

I am so sorry to hear about your accident Ilona Yes these are real tools not toys like some think. I also use a push stick on my smaller saws ( Preac ) I have three of them this one is built just as sturdy.
DeleteI can give you some pointers like Idske suggested If you would like ...;)
Thank you for your comment
Mario.
Hi Mario,
ReplyDeleteVery nice! It's a bit bigger than the Proxxon as you couldn't fit a 4" saw blade in the Proxxon. I really like the mitre gage, simple and no plastic parts and I bet it's very accurate!
Hope you can post a bit about how to set it up accurately, so you don't get kickback like Ilona did. The videos on YouTube on full size table saws don't seem to translate to my smaller machine very well.
Have lovely weekend!
Idske
Yes the pictures don't show the scale of this saw. I will take some with a few of my other saws so you can get a size comparison.
DeleteIts bigger than the old dremel table saw It weights 30 pounds . I would love to post up some pointers once i get set up again .

Veo que has comprado una buena sierra de mesa. la mi, una Proxxon funciona perfectamente y estoy muy contenta con ella, aunque también tengo mucho cuidado al acercar la madera a la cuchilla como dice Ilona. Tengo mucho miedo por mis dedos. Trabaja lo mas seguro que puedas! Y, disfrútala!. Un beso
ReplyDeleteSí la Proxxon es una buena sierra y como máquinas de corte que son de madera ... el dedo ... es doesen't atención así que el cuidado debe ser utilizado cuando se trata de este tipo de sierra.
DeleteGracias por su comentario
