Part 2: • How to build a Table S...
In early 2017 I felt the urge to build a new table saw. This is the first part of my series "Compact Table Saw". This part shows the making of the compact table saw's motor unit. For materials I decided to use mainly plywood. Plywood is strong, dimensionally stable and wear resistant at the edges. For the Motor of the saw I used my Bosch PKS 66.
The most interesting feature of this saw is the trunion tilt mechanism. Though it requires some accuracy and planning to make this mechanism actually work, it allows the saw blade to stay at it's place at the surface of the table even when the saw it tilted. The secret is that the trunions allow for a tilting axies that is excatly in plain with the surface of the table top.

Great design and well explained. Love your work!!!!!
that kinda explains why my last glue-ups didnt go so well, i dont own a pantorouter thanx for the tip! Good show
Nice precise build and smooth operation!
You're one smart cookie! Thanks for making me just that little bit smarter as well!
Your construction is simplest for reproduce and precise in work, and many DIY-masters on their KZread-channels told that. Thank You and good luck!
I love the simplicity of the design. And, I thought I was sarcastic... I love it!

Well done Cosmas. Saw the 2 previous videos too and I'm still impressed by the precision of your Jobs in general. When time comes (getting my Garage Workshop ready first) I will build this project, making use of a different motor unit of an old construction saw I have still laying around. Thanks for sharing this brilliant piece of engineering. Regards from northern Hessen.

Thx Cosmas, interesting & well-explained video......you certainly are a good engineer!!
I love your dry humor. Waiting for the next part.
Ball bearings are always a good touch. My cheap ancient table saw uses fine pitch threaded rods for movement of one axis and it always gets caked in dust and becomes really stiff. But it doesn't look like yours is exposed in the same way so I think you're is fine. Good video as always.
This is awesome. I really liked. This workbench. I dare to say that it is better than a lot of professional table saw that we have here in Brazil.
This is the most simple easy to build lifting mechanism that i found on youtube. The others videos show how to make this is very complicated and require other skill like welding.
i must say its one of the best videos ive seen so far,well done ,if thats your design i give it a 10/10
great cosmas, this video inspired me to make these table saw
Extremely clever and well done.
Hasta ahora el mejor proyecto de sierras de mesa saludos maestro
Great and lovely job, thanks for that.
hasta ahora es el mejor proyecto que e visto my gran maestro felicidades
amazing stuff Cosmas! many thanks for sharing!!!!
Looks pretty bloody good to me!
Genial. Jetzt noch eine Schritt für Schritt Anleitung. Danke dafür. Daumen hoch. I Like :-)
Всё гениальное просто. Шикарный станок.
I Cosmas, i luv your works and the vídeos too, thanks for show your great work!
Very smooth! Love your videos. 😎
yay :) can't wait for the next part!
No me canso de ver esté video gracias por tan grande aportación saludos
Nice Work !
Klasse gemacht und gelöst! 👍 👍 👍 👍
Excellent work🤠👍
Belo projeto de Serra circular de bancada. Parabéns pelo trabalho. Muito show!! Uma boa noite pra você e família. Abs brother. Falando de São Paulo Brasil. 👏👏👏🤘👊🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Bravo! Great idea.
Cosmas I just need to say that I have copied all your ideas and put them into practice with much more precision and a classier finish than you could ever wish for...after that I invented safe, sustainable nuclear fusion! Thanks for a brilliant and inspiring build which has allowed me to upgrade my own basic DIY table. I genuinely learned a lot. Thanks. Jim Noonan Btw. Bollerx to the acme thread disciples
Great work
Simplesmente incrível!
Good work
Hello Inevitably is a wonderful work and well done The use of translation is a wonderful thing for other races is this true
Merci beaucoup pour la vidéo
As for a threaded rod vs acme, my 30 years old table saw made in germany Rapid, has threaded rod not acme, and still working perfectly
great job!!
great video as always cosmas :)
Nice job
Oh I was hoping a build video would come. :D
That is a really nice crank mechanism :) You need some wood gears to speed it up a bit! Thanks for the video :)
Very neat and looks very smooth in operation. If only you had an acme thread .......just had to say lol
Amazing, muy bueno, saludos.
Mükemmel. Tebrik ediyorum.
I like your work bro
So good
Lol about the pantorouter. Very cool build! You're a better woodworker than I however please be careful. I got a little nervous watching some of your cross-cuts. Looking forward to seeing your next video!
Cosmas thank you for sharing. I'm getting tired of living with my badly made homemade saw so i'll start a build like yours. But in your arrangement the ball bearings for the slide won't roll unless enough play so you could be safe just with a solid sliding guide. Please don't take as smart ass comment i've made several devices with this basic error? Regards. Peter
Nice video sir
Overkill is underestimated!!! :D
Boa tarde, top demais seu projeto parabéns
Nice! :)
thank you. 👍
You could make some sound dampening panels to supress the reverb in your workshop.
Saw your video. Impressive. Do you have plans for building this? Would love to build one since my Craftsman Table Saw has a broken gear that Sears has discontinued and won't replace.
thanks verry much
Genial 👍👍👍
hello friend I'm from Uruguay, I loved your channel, a show the mountains, I'm going to make one, what a shame it is not only the Spanish language, I do not understand what it says, now I write in Spanish and translate with the google translator, I'm going to make that table just watching your video, but without understanding your language, thanks for your contribution
Evet çok güzel mekanizma tebrik ederim
Dear Cosmas Bauer, First of all congratulations for the beautiful project, I have already shown your video to several Brazilian colleagues who, like me, are lovers of amateur cabinetmaking, everyone found their work excellent. I was looking for a solution like this for my cutting mechanism. I would like to know if you would detail more about the turning mechanism for 45 degrees, if possible explain how you defined the exact location should position the pivot of rotation in relation to circular saw. Already grateful. Jânsle Fernandes
When can we expect Part 2 of this? I'd like to see the in-depth discussion on the tilting part. Thanks!!

Comment Experts, Love it!
I am in progress to build one .... thanks
Verry nice
Espetacular
Mantap......! I love it
Would be interesting to see your concept sketches and ideas that didn't get implemented.
Hello Cosmas. Safe to say you promoted yourself onto my most admired homemade tablesaw builder with this :D I hope you are still planning onto finishing the series because I am eager to (poorly) attempt to build it. I have one question about this part. I love how you solved the raise/lower mechanism, the sliding bearing block is awesome. my only concern is, is there a good chance of dust/chip getting into the slide and limiting the travel? I was wondering if it was better or worse to cut the slots for the bearing motion all the way through the plywood panels, to possibly allow for cleaning every once in a while? Another question I have is how do you change the blade? I see your saw has a button operated spindle lock, which is similar to my makita 5705R I plan on using, and yours seem to be hardly if ever accessible when the saw is mounted. does it work to just pinch and hold the blade while tightening the retaining bolt?
Excellent work. Can i have plans for the work you have showed. Many thanks.
Hello Cosmas. Це ГЕНІАЛЬНО ТА ДУЖЕ ПРОСТО, Я ПІДПИСАВСЯ НА ВАС ТА З МЕНЕ ЛАЙК
Parabéns!
Yes I was doing this way back in the 80s because my mom said I couldn’t have a tablesaw and I had an old circular saw and I made my own this in a new idea it’s been around forever
great build is there a PDF plan with the exact measures? thank you
Hello ... the project you did, what it does is make a lot of time ... and now thanks to you I see the way to do it ... would not you have the templates available with the measures of the mechanism and the structure itself? Greetings from Paraguay!
8:13 been watching primitive technology :D ? Hat's off for your table saw audacity, especially with the safety fuzz watching
Guess I first need to buy a pantorouter... :-D ;-)

Bonjour C’est un super projet, j’espère que vous partagez vos plans ? 😁
I have made the lift already. But thought if the lift consisted of two blocks in serial on the threaded rod, both with a "link" and without the pin. I wonder if this would result in a saw lifting rather than tilting up. Thus allowing a riving knife. I may upgrade in the future.
So u need a pantorouter table to made this? Just joking. I think this design is worth doing, congrants! Do u have the plans or a sketch of all this? What do u think about mounting an induction motor with pulleys to drive the machine? Would it be able to handle the weight?
Thanks for share your good work... Do you have the plans or templates...? Greetings from Mexico.
great job .. really nice work .. do you have a pdf plan for the lift?
Great design, Can you provide the templetes or the measurement please
Sad that You didnt show the electronic part of your saw. What kind of switch and cables to you need?
Hello, I greet you from Iquitos - Peru. Your design is excellent. Do you have plans with design measures? Can you please send them to me or post them?
Hey, this was a great project, I liked this one. Will there be any plans to buy for this build, I mean the hole project with templates to print out?
Yeah... I’m building. Thank you
Muy buen video , podría pasarnos los planos si es posible
really nice job! But, you need to add a divider knife, be careful of the kickback! sorry for my English...
Thanks for this excellent project and your explanations ! Could it be possible to get some drawings with dimensions ? Thanks in advance ! ;)
Good morning Can you say me where i can round the planes of this proyect? Thanks for your works.
What do you do with all these table saws, Cosmas? Have you got multiple homes?!
Here in California you just used almost 60 dollars worth of wood just on this saw motor holder. Wood here in this crazy over taxed state has more than double in price since I started woodworking 15 years ago. I am building one now so I can get a table saw with my own custom features. But I would spend less $ if I just just purchased one of the low end portable table saws.
Hi, I’m halfway through my build. Did you apply any finish to the inner mechanisms? Im worried about any expansions or warping of the birch plywood over time. Many thanks
Hi. nice build. what is the thickness of the plywood you use. and the size of the steel pins. they look so huge on this video.
