Setting Up My Dream Table Saw! 5HP Sawstop!
Setting Up My Dream Table Saw! 5HP Sawstop!
I’ve been on the hunt for a Sawstop table saw for a long time!
I finally found one second hand at a machinery auction and in this video I go through the process of installing it in my 7′ x 12′ work table.
This is a 3 phase, 5HP industrial saw. Check out this video to see how I manage to install this 575lb saw by myself with just an engine crane.

For the price they charge for that saw, would you not expect to have leveling feet? Otherwise, nice upgrade, enjoy.
How much did you pay for the sawstop?
Hi so can you explain how/why its safer. Thanks: Chipper
For that amount of money, this saw would cost, if cabinet or furniture making is main trade, baseline sliding table saw would be better investment, IMO. Thanks for sharing!
Nice video, and I like yout shop and big table. In the UK you have to have a Riving Knife and a guard over the blade incase your foot slips on the dust and you fall on the blade. Most people couple the blade guard with an upper extraction system.
How did you solve the mitre slots not lining up on the plywood sheet ?
In your future videos, I don’t see a riving knife on your sawstop, but I see one on that saw at 0:48. Riving knives are the most important safety device on any table saw.
I think you should put you finger in the saw running and test the brake.
Good job!
Very good !!! You would have some step by step making ruler that you placed in the new saw?
Where is your outlet located?
You move a lot faster than I can. 😉 Good video to watch.
make make a bench to p router table
Great setup glad you swept up before putting the new table in otherwise I would have had nightmares. Nice shop too
Buen trabajo. Genial
my dream saw is either powermatic or a old delta unisaw I have a delta but only like 20 years old I use Saw stop at work but for myself i don’t want one .
It’s not fair. You have more tools than I do and I have a lot of tools. I only have a delta unisaw and you have a jet and a sawstop. Sawstop is no good anyway. Haven’t you ever seen a guy using one and missing a finger. I asked if he bite it off and he said no. So it must of been sawstop. I’ll get rid of it for you and put the jet back in. I won’t even charge to haul the sawstop off for you.
Why wouldn’t a saw that expensive come with adjustable legs of feet. Makes NO since.
3 phase .. 💪💪💪
Nobody likes full volume sped up power tool noises
I thought the Saw stop came with adjustable feet?
why 5 hp? Woodworking is my hobby. How many hp do I need?
Let me take that old Jet off your hands I will put it back to work for ya…
Why do you worry so much about saw dust?
Here is a machine! I am impressed! I would like that. Sorry, you can ask, what is the price of such a machine?
Saw Stop did not just do it Correct , THEY Did It Right, Instead of making their unique safety system the main feature, THEY made their Saws Correct. Almost ANY tool review, SAW STOP came in first, Out of the box one of the best with no adjustments ( I am thinking, what would a beginning wood worker need, maybe my 15 year old daughter, needs a shelf) Bang, that trip to emergency has been avoided. What is THAT worth ? OK, the TRUTH, I just bought a Skill Saw table saw because I needed something ( and Skill is NOT a JOKE anymore , used to be ) Skill also makes a FINE saw ( or 2 or 5) at a good price. As much as I Love saw stop Skill has a place here. Everything is what YOU make it. I may have to make a video of my own about the new Skill I just received.
that’s the industrial cabinet saw, yes?
Very good videos but a mic or voiceovers would help when you’re away from the camera.
You pried it up with a crow bar……don’t you mean a rooster bar?
Well, doesn’t a rooster crow.
Do you think you needed the 5hp or would the 3 hp have been plenty????
I chuckled when i saw you made your own track for your circular saw.
I’m waiting for 12.5HP pro version with the leveling feet and factory calibrated tape measure already glued on.
As I watched you show that beast who’s boss, I noticed your “holster” for lack of a better term. Did you make it or did you purchase it somewhere? If so, did you make a video of it or do you have the link so that I could get something similar?
I hope the top is not warped
So I’m gonna get the Fein tool, and get my Milwaukee?
Eleven minutes into the video and the movers dolly is still on the friggen floor . Really ? Why ? I stopped watching and gave you a thumbs down ,for lack of a safe work environment .Not Cool
And no body else made comment .
But that’s imposable to make everything?
pencil jamming the critical safety device, very clever…
I think it might be the industrial version not profrssional.
Charles Darwin would hate Sawstop table saws.
You have lots of junk there.
I was sure happy when I got my Engine Crane!
I really liked how you fit your new Sawstop. Have you thought about getting a Festool track saw?
Hey Chris, I want to eventually do the same to my Ron Paulk bench in my shop but will need to get a contractor version of the Sawstop saw and permanently mount it to the bench. Your video is a great learning tool for my project in the future. Stay well my friend now back to sorting hardware. hahaha
How many times have you hit your cojones on the right hand side fence guide overhang?
