Building a Taper Jig on the X-Carve
In this video I build a taper jig on my X-Carve. I had been planning on building this the old fashioned way, but broke my plunge bit on my router. I was stressing trying to figure out how to build this, as I needed it for a table project I was building, and then remembered I could just do this on the X-Carve.

Building an X-Carve Folding Table
Переглядів 44 тис.5 років тому
With my X-Carve taking up every square inch of my workbench, I needed to do something and fast. In this video, I do that something and build a foldable table for my X-Carve. I hope to have plans up for this soon, but nothing as of now. Follow along!

Installing the Bosch RA1811 Router Table into the Ridgid R4512
Переглядів 72 тис.5 років тому
In this video I show you how I installed the Bosch RA1811 router table into the extension wing of my Ridgid R4512 table saw. This process was fairly easy, and hopefully it provides you a good step by step guide on how to easily accomplish this.

A step by step video showing the process of me assembling the Inventables X-Carve 1000x1000mm CNC. I highlight the highs and lows and all of the pitfalls I encountered while assembling the machine. Since this video is a bit lengthy, I have included timestamps to help navigate it below. 0:30 - Work Area 7:25 - Side Plates 11:10 - Carriage 16:30 - Z-Axis 19:43 - Spindle Mount 23:01 - Gantry 27:57...
Great idea but you need to learn the difference between level and collinear and parallel. It will greatly improve the accuracy of your table saw. Ie your table is not perfectly flat and is more like a ruffle chip which is why you have so much trouble moving your fence lol
You say this is a calibration video, but at no point was anything calibrated. You checked proper assembly, and then ran a calibration check piece but at no point was the machine calibrated. You even day the machine is off, but its good enough for your needs.
Well done! Clear, concise, and well presented. Thank You!
Keep the vids coming. Thanks
Can the Bosch router table top be purchased separately or must I buy the entier Bosch Router table?
I just discovered your channel and I'm glad I did. Your presentation is simple, yet effective without any glitz or glamour, just straight to the point. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing with people. I did the same for about 5 years ago, but want to change it due to the fact that the Bosch Lift is not user friendly neither the bit replacement. Mine does not lift the way you are showing. Any idea? What am I doing wrong? Can you help? (by the way I released the locking system of the Lift). However I am planing to replace it with JessEm Lift and have Phenolic Table which I have to trim to fit to my Rigid Table Saw.
Thanks for the build ideas. There are beefier x carve table builds out there, but I think I will do something more like this since it seems to be the better bang for your buck. I like the custom drawer front idea... I'll probably take that note as well!
Hey, is the cutlist still available? The link says it can't be found.
Just updated some settings on the site, it should be available at the same link again.
Glad your install went well. I can’t tell you how many bad reviews j read on Bosch’s website. There were a lot of comments about the table not being flat or being warped. Your installation is the third I’ve seen. I didn’t detect any complaints here or on the other 2 installs about a warped table. Just curious, how wide is your router table and how thick is it. Thanks for doing a job explaining everything.
Hey, great video. Do you still have the cut lists? Thanks
Sorry about that, had to reupload the file to a new host. If you check the link in the pinned comment it should be there now.
@@DuraWoodworks Not yet…..
@@deejayk508 yeah give it a day or two. I had to update the DNS.
Just finished installing it. Great tutorial.👍👍
The stripe under the blue is always white
When zeroing the z depth - use the same location (x & Y) as sometimes the wood is non-flat.
You sir, provided the best UA-cam instructional video I've ever seen. Super easy to follow along with and straight to the POINT IN WHICH MAKES GAVE ME CONFIDENCE TO BUILD WITH YOU!! KEEP THEM COMING
Jesus I wish there was actual lighting. I'm trying to watch you. which way you are putting the m5 post assembly nut but it's so dark. Do I want the spring part facing in or out and bottom or top? The inventables instructions the photo the guy's fat fingers are blocking the view. Of all parts to get stuck on and it's the actuator stops that are driving me nuts no puns intended lol.
Didn’t say which size bolt/screw or even read the bag for which tool we’d be using. Made it incredibly hard to understand what we were using to put it together as you were going. Had to make a guess
Yeah, this was meant more to follow along the guides that the Xcarve folks supply. Sorry for the confusion.
@@DuraWoodworks no you’re fine. Thank you though for clarifying. It did help with seeing it so we could make sure with what we were doing. Appreciate it regardless. Thank you
Thank you SO much for this video!! Also, I love your shirt lol.
Thank you for making this video! I’m new to the x-carve, just got a 2018 model that’s in great shape, barely used.
How long did that take that machine to cut all that out?
Right around an hour
Kk thx 4 that. Unit still running good, still like it? Thinking about picking one up.
@@springwell6146 yeah, don’t use it nearly as much as I want to but it works great every single time I use it.
how about how to actually calibrate. thanks
Good. Video but I do have one bit of constructive criticism.... while I appreciate the fast playback of the video. I could have done without the music in fg mode. The audio from the video source itself is actually completely unnecessary since you overdubbed the voice work. And since I way boy hear the verbal instruction. I can't turn this down. It was brutal
Detailed description of build and it looks good
Cool use of space🌌
👍 Nice
Just bought an X Carve today. Love the idea of this folding table.
His crap is to dark
As a Texan, I approve this video.
working on this now, any chance you remember the position in from the side for the leg bolts on the front of the torsion box? guessing like 1.5"? LOVE this design, thank you so much for the video!
Check the pinned thread, I believe I have those measurements in a reply there. Lemme know if those don’t work for you and I can go out and measure when I get back home.
@@DuraWoodworks thanks man! i was reading those as for the side of the frame to the box, but could be confusing it :)
@@adamsauls87 oh I hear ya. The ones on the front are 1.5” in from the left right on the front edge, and centered vertically if that makes sense.
@@DuraWoodworks makes perfect sense! Thanks again!
I am gonna steal that hot glue trick that was genius!
Thanks, but I can’t take all the credit haha. Think I got that idea from a David Picciuto (Make Something) video.
Targ's email (and whole domain, actually) don't work anymore. Do you have some plans for this cart that you can share?
Unfortunately not, the only thing I have is the cut list I have linked in the description. I would rather not share Tarq’s plans without his approval and now I have no way to contact him.
Ugh! The thing that I wanted to see most is where on the left of the project you placed the bit, I’m confused about exactly where you do the XY ?
Typically, I place the X/Y as close to the bottom left of the work piece as possible. Usually do it by eye.
1) Move the bit to approximately the lower left corner (2) Lower the bit (z axis) until it's a hair above the material (3) Move the x/y until the *center* of the bit is right over the bottom left corner.
Good design. Well planned out. I would like to see some eye and ear protection. Also never wear gloves when using a table saw. The blade will drag your hand into the blade. Keep up the good work. Stay safe.
Yeah, I learned that soon after this and it gave me nightmares thinking about doing it. It’s a learning process for sure! Thanks!
What size work bench would you need just for the CNC?
Here’s a good forum post going over exactly that: discuss.inventables.com/t/looking-for-overall-size-specification-footprint-of-x-carve/663/2
@@DuraWoodworks Thank you. I've had the machine for a couple weeks now...trying to figure out the few quirks, and learning how to make it do cool stuff.
Could you share the hardware (nuts/bolts/hinge) list you used to assemble ?
I found some amazing plans for Woodglut. Just check them out.
Get off the damn computer! There is no Craftsman ship in a computer ran router. Do it by hand
There’s craftsmanship in both. By your argument using a router at all isn’t craftsmanship. You should be doing it all using hand tools. Maybe that is even cheating too? Probably should just scratch the wood out with our fingernails? Technology is always improving, as is art. Just enjoy the process man.
Hi all I have a youcarve ( Australian built machine ). If it’s possible could i get some plans email please. Greatly appreciated Arondmg@hotmail.com
Love that Alvin and the chipmunks doing 90s music.
Nice fucking camera work... nope
Nice way to save some space when not using it!
Any particular type of cloth best for wipe on polyurethane?
Any lint free cloth will do. But be sure not to leave them crumpled up in a pile! They give off heat and can combust.
Awesome video! thanks for posting! Did you/are you able to get the router table without the base? The amazon link has a base with it.
Yeah, the only way to buy it is with the base. I never ended up using the base parts, only the top and switch pieces.
sketchup link does not work
The only change I might make to the front legs might have been a bolts with a rubber pad that screw in and out from the bottoms of the legs just in case the trolley is moved to an uneven section of the floor... very minor point though.
I've watched a few folding table solutions for the X Carve... this the best I've seen to date. Many attach the folding shelf directly to a wall... a problem on three counts... vibration transmitted through the building, It is fixed in only one location, no access around all four sides. This is great... will need to construct something 'very similar when my X Carve arrives.
Wipe on polyurethane finish... that's a new one on me... only ever seen/used brush on finishes... wonder if it is avalailable in the uk.
If not, you can make your own. There’s a link somewhere on UA-cam by one of the popular woodworking UA-cam folks.
Do you have any ideas to make that Ridgid table saw fence better? It's sloppy as crap and I can never get a straight cut with it as the far side is always either out or pigeon-toed in.
The only thing I have seen people do is 3d print new rail guides, but I have heard its still only a small improvement and you would need to get a custom fence to make a drastic improvement. www.thingiverse.com/thing:3463727
Another thing to check on this saw is how square the blade is to the guid rail on the table. The Trunnions on these saws can get pretty sloppy. You can literally bump the saw and move the blade out of square by as much as 0.50" You might think it's your fence but in reality it's the blade.
Nice work, I saw a wall mounted one that folds away in this video, not sure which one I prefe......... ua-cam.com/video/WaXTxx24Yco/v-deo.html
I'm not able to get your sketchup link to work.
Something is up with the youtube link that was generated in the description. You have to type out the link manually dura.works/plans/cedar-planter.skp
