Mini Table Saw for Hobbies - Small Multipurpose Lapidary Rock Saw - Portable Hobby Cutting Machine for DIY Projects - Compact Tabletop Wood Saws for Jewelry Making, Drilling, Crafts

Short review: Buy it. If you have use for some of the multiple functions this unit is able to perform and limited space, this is a nice tool. While not perfect, this tool is very capable little machine.Got this in just a few hours ago and after trying it out just a little bit, I can say that I am very happy with this tool! I have to start by saying I was skeptical about this tool set-up for the cost. This unit is built around a knock-off of the Foredom brand lathe motor (for those who don't know, Foredom is known for their tools being high quality and made to last for decades of daily professional use). The Foredom costs about $200-$220 for just the motor with tapered spindles. For $150 that this costs, I was expecting to need to buy the Foredom and move the table over to it. My concern was the motor being under powered.There are some things that I wish were better, but for the price I am not going to complain about them. The two things that I wish were better the fence and miter gauge. To move the fence, you must hold the nut to retighten it. I plan to modify a nut to resolve that issue. The gauge is flimsy and doesn't move very smoothly, more disappointed by this aspect. There is also mention of a stone blade but mine only came with the wood blade. To be honest, I wouldn't use this for stone cutting unless maybe you needed to make just a few small cuts.The overall quality is good to very good, but not great, not like premium quality professional tools. That's ok because the price is good for what you pay for this. The flex shaft is nice, not bad and a nice tool to have if you don't already own one. Very acceptable quality as is most of the other accessories. I bought this to cut smaller pieces of wood, non-ferrous sheet, bar and L-angle stock (non-ferrous blade sold separately) and for the grinding wheel. I love how small and portable this thing is. I have all the full-size versions of the separate tools, table saw, flex shaft, bench grinder, polishing machine, but most of the time those are overkill for my small applications. This is going to be a real time saver for me!

I enjoyed using it while it worked. Small, quiet.Problem 1: Guides are useless. Hard to adjust/move. Sticky, and choppy movementProblem 2: Fuse blows if you look at it sidewaysProblem 3: Entire electronics dead.

The side piece for the dremel, grinder wheel and other parts WILL NOT switch out. I put the grinder wheel on and now even with the 2 little bolts completely out WILL NOT come off.

*update*The seller got back to me in just under 24 hours and was able to help me get this thing running again. There is a fuse that may need replaced if your saw just stops functioning. They did send the machine with a replacement fuse so I really appreciate that foresight and it was relatively easy to replace.I received this product as a gift for christmas. I wanted to use it to cut stones, and so I specifically found a saw that could function in a semi-wet environment. I got this all set up with a diamond Jade blade and within the first 10 minutes it completely quit functioning, would not turn on the indicator light would not even come on. Very disappointed I was very excited to start cutting some agates. Will update based on if the seller gets back to me and if they make it right.The directions are very disjointed and difficult to follow and poorly translated. That didn't make a huge difference to me because I am relatively handy but if this were My first foray into saws it would have been difficult for me to even get started.

I bought this small saw to cut wood and I am very happy, because it has fulfill my needs as a amateur carpenter. I am able to cut wood like 2 x 4 without trouble. Since I had a little metal fence and several jigs from my former small table saw I adapted them to use with this new saw, so I am not using the fence included. I also made a little table to mount the saw, so the table area is larger and I made a little box to collect the dust, since most of the dust is thrown to the bottom of the machine. So far I like it. I have not tried yet the other tools that came with the saw.

Even though others have said negative things about this grinder station setup I have to say it's by far a great little machine and the versatile abilities of it are jus handy as can be, feom using as a table saw/wet saw, to jus a bench grinder to a lathe and I even have and am currently using it for making faceted gems ! Nice machine Thank you!

The fuse diode has blown three times, not to mention cutting stones, even an inch of wood can't be cut. Buy carefully.

I got the unit on Monday, and I test it, so far so good. It works fine, and it is small enough for compact area.
