This is a simple version of an X-Y table as found on any milling machine. As others have mentioned, this use of a table saw is hugely hazardous, not to mention the work piece being elevated well above the table. Cut circles with a router and you’ll be done with far less work, or a lathe or a jig saw… Interesting video though

I like my fingers. Besides people were only offering a comment, not suggesting you spend your life savings to cut a circle. LOL

Brilliant work my good man. Excellent photography too! Plus your lighting is very good always exposed properly so we don't miss any details. Each shot is carefully set up for maximum clarity and simplicity so anybody with even a basic knowledge of how things work can easily replicate the same given the tools and material. I enjoyed the fact that you decided not to add a narration track to it as most creators do. Personally I find those DYI videos that overlay the visuals with heavy metal constantly jangling my nerves quite detestable and so I avoid them for the most part. If they are good enough in the other ways I'll simply turn the volume off. 😁

You can take woodworking advice from someone like that, after all he delivers two near perfect wooden circles, safety advice however I would take from someone else.

It's cool, it's clever, but it's also really a good way to lose another finger. This jig is not very safe for cutting circles on a table saw, but I can imagine it having other, better applications. I'd feel a little better if I had reason to believe you were doing this with an emergency brake on your table saw.

Nice idea dear very good

Would be safer to use it on a band saw than a table saw. Or rough out the circle and use it on a disk sander. The height off the table isn't as dangerous as lots of people are suggesting, but it would be much safer if the end rail were the same height as the side-rails and with a block bolted down on the other side of the blade to support the pieces you're cutting off. Then it would effectively just be a higher table top. Really, the biggest problem is that it's going to take a lot of mindfulness. The tape needs to be good every time because if the disk comes loose there will be pieces of it flying everywhere at best. Sawdust buildup in a number of places could cause catastrophic failure. Wear that causes any significant wiggle could be a major hazard. Very useful tool that you'll find variants of in a lot of machine shops. But would be safer to use with almost anything but a table saw. Build a router mount into the end of it even if circles is all you're using it for.

Complimenti bellissimo lavoro 👍

I still think a safer, better way is to use an inexpensive saber/jig saw that will allow you to produce ANY dia.circle, up to 1 1/2" or even a 2" thickness; may take a bit longer!

Be great if you need a lot of round pieces of wood. Loved watching your skill& ingenuity. Thanks

Fairly good DIY video for an adjustable stage/table. WRT the title, I think the patent ran out before the bronze age collapse. I suggest reading up on some history, and maybe the safety literature that comes with power tools.

When people work with power tools or any type of industrial equipment, there are just certain hazard of that come with those jobs. Sometimes no matter how safe you are you could be the unlucky one, mostly due to the fact we are human and are not perfect no matter how much we might think we are. That's why we do have safety protocols to help mitigate that a bit, but that will not stop some accidents, or the accidents of others. All we can do is what we feel safe doing!

If nothing else, can we appreciate his ability to drill holes with that hand held? I'm not sure I could make two holes in a 6 inch square block and have them meet in the middle like that without a drill press.

If you need a guard to keep yourself from sticking your finger (or any body part) into a spinning saw blade, you should probably avoid being around ANY power tool. AND DON'T open the hood of your vehicle because you may stick your hand into a spinning FAN and that would really hurt ! Additionally, you should refrain from riding a bike because it has spinning parts and without any guards, you might stick your fingers or entire hand into the spokes, yeah, that wouldn't be good.

👏👏👍👍

Extremadamente peligroso para que crees que se invento la sierra caladora si no hay una sierra cinta Man?

Just use a router on either a bought or homemade jig Perfect circle in a fraction of the time

👏👏👏👍👍👍

Don’t know I would trust this. Looks like he is missing an index finger

With the elevation of this, there is a potential hazard of losing another digit, kickback, or both. Use a router, screw, and scrap piece of wood. This way you can save the other 9 digits man. If you've not felt kickback, then I advise to reconsider doing it this way. Had kickback that bruised my chest for like 3-4 months.

Pretty neat tool. But it seems like a lot of work just to be able to cut circles lol. I suppose maybe if you were doing a project that required you to cut many circles and be repeatable with it....it would save some time then.
