For all those wondering, this saw isn't available in the UK yet. It's apparently coming soon. I'm expecting it will cost £300-£350 based on EU/ US prices, but that's just my best guess.

You are very lucky to be gifted one. I have been in contact with skil and they cannot give an estimated date for UK availability stating "keep checking screwfix availability as they are our only UK seller" Meanwhile screwfix have told me that they have no plans to stock this table saw and will register enquiries and assess if it's something they might decide to stock. So for me it's time to save a bit more and get an alternative, but definitely not a dewalt.

Yeah it's a very good bit of kit.

Hey. - Just wanted to let you know that i've had this saw for about half a year now. I use it daily, and i found a few small drawbacks. 1. It doesn't have a soft start, like much other saws. 2. The tilt mechanism doesn't have a way to easily adjust. I prefer to have a knob to turn, to really dial in the perfect angle for cutting. 3. The clearance insert is too floppy.. It's too soft and even with adjustments, it's not really good. So maybe a custom insert is one of the early projects if you buy this saw. But all in all, this is still by far the best tablesaw i have had. Super happy about it, especially the super precise fence. I would highly recommend this saw, especially considering the prize! PS. I am waiting patiently on episode 7 on 1p to 1000, super good seriest! Keep up the good work mate :)

I'm a novice woodworker and picked this up as my first table saw after a lot of research for under $300. The fence is not quite vertical. The table is not quite flat. The throat plate does indeed flex a LOT, like an eighth down in the center if you press on it. I was aware of these drawbacks before buying and I was happy to pay for the performance, toolless adjustments and safety feature set. I attached the arbor wrenches to the power plug to be certain I'm never using them plugged in. It claims 4x4 rip capacity but the teeth just barely clear the wood and I wasn't able to do that safely, I instead ripped slightly less than half through, flipped it, ripped the other half, cleaned up the small bit of remaining wood

I've had this saw for about a year. I agree with the comments about the throat plate. But I'm really glad i waited (accidentally) for this to be available rather than getting one of the other cheap table saws. As a beginner I've not found myself fighting with it too much after the day i spent getting it all square to start with. The modifications I've made are a sturdy base for it because it does rock a bit with the big stuff especially when it's a long beam (2metres plus), a new mitre gauge and a quick throat plate. Next stop a new blade once I work out what fits the riving knife

@@sumeraybuilds yes I used a piece of 1/2 inch ply and then chiseled the underside to fit. It’s not perfect but it works and now I’m a bit better I should probably do another one. I’m in New Zealand so we don’t have a great deal of choice and we get gouged on prices so once I found the options here were either real junk or too expensive I didn’t feel too bad going the Bangood route. I got the WNew one and for me it’s pretty good. It’s solid heaps of positive stops and it has those washer bits you tighten to fit in the groove.

I purchased this one about 6 months ago. I love this table saw and the adjustments are great for being a jobsite saw. I have a small wood shop so the fact it folds up and moves out of the way is a large plus.

You have one? Bet you're not in the UK. If you are where did you purchase it from?

I have this saw, and I actually have it mounted to a rolling cart. I made a cabinet out of plywood w/ three drawers and double locking casters. I have two rails that run front to back on the cart. The rails lock the front and back of the saw in place w/ the legs folded up. It's not bolted down, and transport the saw if needed. I used painters tape on the miter gauge to remove the slack while in the miter slot. I used some 3/4" plywood and made a small sled 13" long x 11" deep and the just attached the fence to the miter gauge. So if I need to remove it, I just loosen the two screws on the fence, and it's just a miter gauge again. My biggest complaint is that my fence doesn't sit 90 degrees to the table. I was able to shim it on one end and get it aligned a little better, but my fence has a slight bulge in the middle, and I only notice when I'm cutting stock thicker than 2"... and it's loud. Really loud. Screaming loud. But I'm really glad to have it because I couldn't afford the Dewalt :D

After a full month of waiting, I finally received mine a couple days ago. Don't know if it's a UK vs USA thing but mine came with two riving knives. One is integrated into the blade guard and the other is a standalone blade. A set of anti kickback pawls were also included, which attach to the blade guard. A lot of people mention how flimsy the insert is being make out of plastic. Mine is actually metal and pretty solid. I couldn't find any information on adjusting the fence to square it to the blade so thanks for that tidbit. Mine is off just a smidge so will definitely be looking at that. Nice review! Thanks and be safe.

I bought this saw in New Zealand several months ago. It's excellent and has plenty of power when using a dado stack. There is a couple of differences between the US and EU/AU/NZ models. US model has an included anti kickback pawl but doesn't have the straight dust extraction step down nozzle. I bought the Skil anti kickback pawl and its storage bracket from US eBay cheap as chips. The anti kickback pawl storage bracket screws in just behind the storage clamp for the dust extraction nozzles. You will see two screw bosses for it located there.

Good insight! Thanks 🙌

I bought this last last March and have used it a few times a week since then. I've made furniture, cutting boards, and ripped long oak trim pieces on it. It's really a fantastic saw for the money. I paid $330 for it after tax, and the comparable DeWalt 10" is about $480 and close to $600 with the rolling stand, so nearly double. Overall, I'm really happy with it. It's loud as heck (but all the universal motor saws are), but it's ripped through basically everything I've thrown at it. My only real complaint is that the included throat plate is terrible. It's poorly supported around the blade so as you push a piece through, downward pressure will cause the insert to deform and change the angle of your piece against the blade. I bought some cheap MDF CNC inserts off Amazon to fix it. They required some modification as the captive riving-knife mount is quite bulky, but it's resolved the issue nearly completely. Also, if you're in the US, you can mount a dado stack on it which is very useful. A lot of budget job site saws don't have this as a feature.

I believe you can also calibrate the removable red cap at the blade to get it even with the table. Yours showed a gap I believe.

Hi, very interested in this machine. I bought a Rage 5 some time ago and though it is fine for cutting sheet materials the table is not planer at all. I swapped the machine 3 times and every replacement had the same distorted table casting. The distortions run in a number of directions, and the height of the table on either side of the insertion plate differ!! I cannot therefore use it for basic joinery operations. Can you comment on the table of the SKIL machine? I know it won't be machined flat for this price, but have you put a metal rule along the table at various angles to verify the flatness. I would be very interested to know. Thanks for an excellent video.

You can literally see the back and front of the fence wobbling out of plane during adjustment@ 3:04

I’d be tempted to say thats the rolling shutter on the camera rather than the fence.

I'm not sure what you mean. Certainly using it there wasn't any wobble, especially once it's locked in

I ended up with a lemon but gonna buy another one to see. Mine was used a total of an hour over 3 weeks as I just use for hobby stuff for myself. The fence locked up and wouldn't move...the rail on back tried moving but the front side was completely locked. Then when I went to put the factory blade on to take it back to Lowe's the motor locked in place so I had to bring it in with the blade stuck all the way up

And you will struggle. The only outlet skil list on their website is screwfix and screwfix don't stock it and don't have any current plans to stock it. All enquiries are being passed on to their relevant department, they will then decide if it is worth stocking 😔. Once again there is no "great" in living in great britain.

​@@Sly_Wolf_1any other rack and pinion suggestions, except the dewalt? I saw milwaukee have it but I'm not sure if they have corded one ( I don't trust the battery power for some reason)

@@n0spam911 Sorry but only three spring to mind. One is by Rutlands power tools, it looks the same as the skil table saw, it's 240v and a 3yr warranty and has had some good reviews, cost about £300 but no stand included, that's extra. Then there's the Hikoki C3610DRJ 36V, again 3yrs warranty (heavy duty) but it's about £450 including a wheeled stand or £350 without. I know it's battery but for about £150 you can by a Hikoki transformer power pack for it to run on 240v. Lastly there's one by excel power tools, around the £190 mark, no stand and I've not seen any reviews on it though. I think it's even available the either Wickes or B&Q. Sorry I cannot help any further. I've seen that Skil have a 5yr warranty on their battery tools, that's why I was interested in this one 3yr is fine but if it has 5yrs that's fantastic compared to the competition, plus I want the biggest 90° depth of cut, milwaukee and dewalt don't do 10" any more I believe, well certainly dewalt unless you want to spend close to £900.

I agree, both are super but I’m doing a comparison video soon!

I have seen at least 3 other "manufactures" release this saw with their own brand name on it, Evolution being just one of them suspect it is made in china and just rebranded, not sure what the spares availability will be like.

Theres a massive height difference between the throat plate and the cutting surface. You can clearly see when the square is placed against the blade 😕 Anyways, im in the market for a new table saw and recently had a visit to my local stores. Im really shocked how bad the quality is throughout all the brands. They're producing cheaply made products with a high price tag 👎 DeWalt being the worst offender. The tools feel like Black and Dekker quality at Festool prices. Its insane.

Everything costs more now, this is true. I'll be reviewing the new Evolution saw soon if you're still not sure which one to go for it's deffo worth checking it out.

It is an amazing saw....louder than a Catholic girl in the backseat but solid

I have been using the Dewalt since 2017, this looks like a cheap copy of it. Cant really improve on the Dewalt.

@sumeraybuilds

2 ай бұрын

I think that’s a fair comment. I’d agree it’s a cheaper alternative to the Dewalt. It offers much of the same functionality. For a saw that includes the rack and pinion fence this is very competitive for its price. That being said I’d agree that Dewalt is ultimately the better machine and I suspect would last longer too.

I think USA banned table saw until 2043

So - for me it's a tough call between the Evolution R255, Rutlands R1618, or wait till this becomes available (if and whenever that might be!) It's great you got a demo version - was yours UK 240v?
