How to Make a Crappy Table Saw Into a Good One

Hi,I Had to make improvements to this saw it was frustrating me to he'll with its crappy fence and Riving knife/guard so its had a makeover with a new fence reworked riving knife,new guard position,pedestal,extraction,and side extension .

I made the fence using 50mm Aluminium angle running in a channel, the fence is out of Oak and faced it with Melamine.

this is a hold down clap from a mitresaw

I cut the riving knife guard holder off and repositioned the guard on an extendible arm

adjustable 5 position guard steady

I have a small workshop so i had to have as small a footprint for my saw as possible.

Although I have gone trough all the steps you can get a more comprehensive view of my table saw in the video bellow.( If viewing this on mobile phone the link below may not work I have put a link at the start sorry for the confusion.)
