About Saws Hub

Since 2017

A father and son woodworking and DIY site

SawsHub is run by Jared Bauman and his father, Dennis Bauman. Dennis has done home repair, remodeling and fine woodworking for nearly 40 years. Jared is the DIYer who learned most of it by calling his dad. Together they write educational guides and tool reviews on woodworking, home improvement and DIY projects.

The goal is simple: give you clear, practical help so you can pick the right tool, learn what you need, and finish the project.

Why SawsHub exists

When Jared and his wife bought their first house, it was a foreclosure that needed work in every room. Jared and Dennis fixed it up together: tile floors, baseboard, kitchen cabinets, new walls and drywall, paint inside and out, and a new fence.

The tile floor is where the site started. The rented tile saw they used could not make a straight cut, and when Jared went looking online for a tile saw to buy, he could not find clear, honest help. SawsHub was built to be that help.
