Scott NC Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Heres a power hacksaw I cobbled together years ago because I tired of using my arm and couldnt afford an Enco. There is no lift mech on the backstroke and isn't osha ok. I've never put anything on you tube, this is an experiment so delete/move if it chews up too much bandwidth or whatever. https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=UQ7YmcBbmaU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 That's quite the machine. How long did it take to make that cut? Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mutant Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 That's pretty dang cool! I was going to go the same route but I just came across an old Keller that was in near perfect condition. What size motor are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott NC Posted August 10, 2020 Author Share Posted August 10, 2020 Frosty, it's an old video but I would say 5 minutes. I used old broken industrial bandsaw blades on it and they have aggressive teeth. I had to use a plasma cutter on the blade mounting holes after destroying several drill bits. Thanks mutant. The motor currently on it is 1/4 hp but I think it had a old unknown washing machine motor on it to start with. Im really glad the link thing worked. I thought a you toob picture would show up with it though. Kind of fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
