scan and post hospital bill when done please
thanks......my only concern at this point is that the rpm's won't really be high enough. It should have a no load speed of 4500. I'm not sure how that compares with gas chainsaws........Robb
It looks too powerful to be a hand held tool. I have a not to fond memory of drilling through a piece of steel with a large electric 1/2" drill motor. The bit hung and the drill turned in my hands, and very quickly. It darn near jerked my arms off.
I think that saw will do the same thing if it hangs up and I doubt you will quick enough to shut it off before it does you harm. Be careful!!
I don't think he'll have the torque of a 1/2" drill, as they use a planetary gear setup [like a winch] to turn the chuck about 650 rpm. I know what you mean about the drills, my Ingersol Rand 1/2" has tried to 'get' me a few times.
Nay nay nay!!If it works I'll only be using it to mill.....so I'll have to rig a gravity oiler. As far as people saying its dangerous....well it is right now but I think you missed the part about it being not finished........I just love nay sayers......the more they nay, the more I do..........Robb
Nay nay nay!!
Git 'er done man, cool beans! (as Thall would say)
Gravity feed oil ya say? Going to use the oiling holes on the blade?
Rem the golden rulz of KISS, you'll want ta keep chain replacement easy and un-cluttered
Gotta love building cool stuff! Probably a good thing I don't know how ta weld (yet) or I'm sure I'd have a dozen projects on the go, not the least of which would be a dune buggy or rat-rod (if I ever found a good hemi I'd build one around it ) *sigh*
On the saw, hm, Idda run pully and belt (s), if ya jamb you may want to have a breaker set up close by
judging from what I learned today......about 5 horse industrial briggs, with a verticle shaft, mounted at the center of fence, would be a dream mill. gear it up and run a belt to the bar driving shaft and then you'd really have a good mill.....maybe even 10 horse.........Robb
