Table saw. The blade of a table saw cutting into wood. A table saw or sawbench is a woodworking tool consisting of a circular saw blade, mounted on an arbor, that is driven by an electric motor (either directly, by belt, or by gears). The blade protrudes through the surface of a table, which provides support for the material, usually wood, being cut.
Besides the blade, the most important part on a table saw is the fence. If yours is beat up or you just want a new one, here's how you can build your own. Table saws are precision tools for ripping lengths of wood, and to achieve this they a properly dialed-in fence to align the wood parallel to the blade for perfect cuts. If your fence is out of whack, you can spend a few hundred dollars buying an aftermarket one. Or you can build your own out of wood and a few pieces of hardware. In this video, YouTube woodworker John Heisz builds a table saw fence from pieces of 1/2-inch plywood and easy-to-find hardware items.
