Adam Savage's One Day Builds: Table Saw Fence Upgrade!
Adam Savage's One Day Builds: Table Saw Fence Upgrade!
Adam spends the day fixing and upgrading his Powermatic 66 table saw with a new table saw fence system. The table saw is equipped with an Accu-Fence, but its sides were damaged in recent use. Adam replaces those sides with a beautiful set found online, and even got some tips to install them direct from the manufacturer! Keep an eye out for a cameo appearance of a Scottish soda sent in from a fan, complete with kilt bottle cozy!

Can anyone tell me how he’s able to use his table saw without a riving knife ?
*Have had this table saw before, Love it **MyBest.Tools*
Well made and very accurate
Can you share a link for powermatic Teflon fence guides.
Interesting design by Powermatic. Found this video searching for advice on working with UHMW T slot guide strips. Also would like UHMW faces on a chewed-up Biesemeyer fence but understand they installed by in a different, less accommodating way. Maybe the fix is Bondo and UHMW tape. You reckon?
never mind, I found Billy Choate’s email below
7 or 8 thou ??!! Dude!! You are cutting wood !!
Adam, do you have a source for the Bill Choate UHMW sides? I’d love to buy them for my Biesemeyer
U talk to much just do the job
These suck. I’m wanting to trade mine out for something that is actually flat straight and NOT UHMW plastic which is very not flat.
You’re not real smart are you?
Awesome sneakers Adam
Try some Inca-Kola if you ever see it. Peruvian soda. It’s another bubblegum flavor.
when u yelled to alexa to play bag pipes music …. my alexa did play also pipe music …. funny …. OORAH!!
Nice, nice, very nice. However, you can make it better. Just google Woodglut and learn how to do it easily.
do you have the mill works ebay page and or the url for the mill works site you speak of?
Not much out feed space, against the wall.
Amazing how you still have all 10 fingers!
Hi Adam. Sorry to ask but my hearing is not so great anymore. Where did you order the replacement parts?
Where did you get them? Exact same need.
How many people were watching this and had Adam set off their Alexa? 😂
Do you think they would want you to play their music in the background because let alone does it give them advertisement for the sun it makes more people hear the music you’re all worried about $1.95 greed
Get some ratchet wrenches. Speed up production.
Could you have gonorrhea LOL just joking
Is there any chance you would post the eBay seller I’d, or contact info.? I would like to purchase a set for my PM table saw. I’ve searched on eBay and have not hit on the right search criteria.
Way too many commercials !
1980s horror films played in my mind when you said you unplugged it so it "wouldn’t" turn on.
Hello, Whispers.
can someone direct me to those side fences?
Hopefully you don’t have no Ex-Lax in the pop
Please install a riving knife or splitter
A gentleman is a man that knows how to play the bag pipes. But doesn’t. 😂😂😂
" really only getting withing 5 thousands.. " Adam….you need an incra fence! .002 all day long buddy! And no tap tap tap to get there…it’ll change your life!
Just as a follow up, I ran a little test.
Dialed in fence to 1" measured actually 1.0015 ( I can get closer but I was just messing around). Moved thefence to 2.5", measured @ 2.515, then moved to 4" measured 3.9985, then back to 1" measured .9989. And I’ll add that’s it’s not my saw. I had this same fence on an old 1950 8" delta homecraft and it had the same level of accuracy and reliability.
all that work and you could’ve just used extruded aluminum…
Adam should not be allowed to use sharp objects or tools.
prolly too late to the party to ask….3/4" or 1/2" thk? 44" long? Thanks!
Irn Bru…..made in Scotland from girders……
Do you have a link to these uhmw parts? I can’t find them. Thanks!
Nice to see even the experts have there nuts and bolts falling around the shop once in awhile.
Next time – “Alexa, play Enter The Haggis.” That is some bagpipe music to rock out while you work!
U R AN PATHETIC
I find the Swiss Army knife in the background mesmerizing!👍🤪🇨🇦👨🦳
Irn Bru! My favourite. I have to buy it online though as it’s really hard to find outside the UK.
Do you have a link for the Fence faces you bought? Thanks!
that fence is over kill
iron bru, classic! made from girders
My UHMW fence rails on my Powermatic were dished at every screw attachment point. I laminated some baltic birch plywood and replaced them. Problem solved.
I am surprised that has SAWSTOP has not offered you a free table saw? I mean you are a celebrity
U R A AWESOME DUDE,
stop making bagpipes play in my house! lol
