Craftsman Table Saw, T-slot tabs solved, with 3 easy cuts. How I make runners for a saw with tabs!
Craftsman Table Saw, T-slot tabs solved, with 3 easy cuts. How I make runners for a saw with tabs!
I made some runners for the infamous tabbed slots on a Craftsman Tablesaw. I thought it was going to be hard, but turns out, you just make these three cuts on your table saw. Maybe sand a bit for a real nice fit and carry on. I love that it locks the sled to the saw top, will not rise up.
For My Next Adventure, ?? You Never Know!
One semester at Clemson Engineering School and a lifetime of fixing stuff has prepared me for my YouTube love, being the Frugal Fixer.
I am completely Self Taught, and sometimes the results show just that. But sometimes, I get lucky and make something real cool. Hang around and see which one this turns out to be, LOL
But I am going on a quest!!
I have been accused of being a HIGH TECH REDNECK! It Fits!!
Hi Spike here, The Frugal Fixer Shop owner. I was a contestant in the GGBO2021 Guitar Build contest and finished, that was an accomplishment. I am a Guitar builder, Musician, Busker, Maker, Gold Prospecting Equipment Builder and all involved, 3d printing, MPCNC, total Shop and ShopSmith rebuilds and avid user, Electronics, Frugal Fixer Projects and I have been accused of just being a HIGH TECH REDNECK, More on my other channels!! Keep all the Gold stuff over on the Spike’s Prospecting Equipment channel.
Great video! I have seen a few videos to correct this issue and yours makes the most sense to me. All the others cut the piece first then the rabbits after… Much less dangerous using your method. Thank you sir.
Great video my ryobi has the same track system thanks!
A little sad this wasn’t up a year ago when I took a dremel and cut off the little tabs. It’s been a headache getting a runner with no play.
But THANK YOU for using the same saw to make this runner instead of a $4,000+ contractor series table saw (like in other videos), that way the people who actually bought these saws (craftsman, ryobi, etc) can recreate it.
Made it to video 18. I will check back on some of these videos this weekend as they looked rather interesting. Thanks.
Look like the t-guide will make a nice cross cut sled. The plastic should make it slide smoothly.
