yeah at the Colfax high mill and woodshop today I'm going to go over the DeWalt
stand I have for my sliding chop saw I'm trying to get all my sliding chop saw
it's figured out and I'm just going to go over to the stand a little bit today
and stay tuned okay
I've had this the wall 12-inch sliding chops off for quite a while I used to
have a table top mounted over there there's a little short in the motor and
I replaced it with a Makita sliding chop saw you'd see my other videos for that
and then I used a fast cap best fence system over there and data is all
working out really well so then what to do with just kind of
older do all chop saw so I bought the DeWalt dwx 7:26 stand for it
but I got it on Amazon it's a little over a couple hundred bucks I just got
it some students put it together yesterday so far I like it a lot
these are arms travel out this way so this helps to travel out it'll cut it up
to an 8 foot board it travels on both sides equally so there's a right hand
and a left hand travel it has tracks that travel on here into the bolt the
saw directly to those tracks but instead I ended up bolting a piece of 3/4
plywood to it instead and then screwed this down and part of the reason I did
that just have a little bit of a work space here after tapes or paper or
Cutlass and also it'll be easier to pull a saw on and off but it's pretty heavy
all together I think this is probably about 30 pounds or so and I think the
stands about 60 pounds so I have it screwed down right now I have a little
favor to the right side to make sure I usually use the left hand fence to give
me a little bit more cut distance here and as far as the stand goes so far
we've only just used it a little bit but we milling around lumber so my hope is
that we'll be able to roll this stand and sawed out into the yard where we
mill our lumber and the narrower board we could kind of
cross cut them out they're mostly Silvo stack vertically really nicely and get
rid of some of the checking so that's kind of the overall attempt with it the
stand actually wheels around pretty well it's not light so you could we look
pretty well fully set up like this kind of a couple important things to remember
is you do want to make sure that blade is locked down here so it's not popping
up and that the slide is also locked so that's the launch of the slide there's a
lock for that song you don't want this little travelers around the cuts we've
made so far with it it is actually really stable even with these outriggers
all the way out and then have you board on here we actually haven't or I haven't
felt any tipping on it at all so I really like to stand a lot really stable
really big and with that comes the additional weight it does have multiple
height adjustment and it has an ear spring on there so I like that place so
it has multiple heights which is really nice the nice thing about this board is
you know if you took the sliding miter off you put another tool on here really
quickly has a nice solid handle here in the release lever you do have to pick it
up a little bit and then it'll drop down and then there's that pneumatic going
down and then it's locked in place then you can lift it roll it and it actually
stacked vertically with the song on there pretty well I mean it's a pretty
big footprint but at least this up and out of the way Oh time for class
alright it opened up too much the same way - and there it is ready to go
alright so there's a Dewalt rolling stand I give it a so far maybe a nine
out of ten
