Sweet! You make it look easy.

Thats a lot of work, and seems time consuming.

A video for your enjoyment while I'm cutting this squish band.

Really cool to see what we are getting for our money. So far the best thread on AS in my opinion.

Really great to see the build process. Good cause also. I wish I had a builder by me to. All you builders are far from me.

99% of the saws I do arrive via UPS, FedEx, or USPS.

Done. .040 gone from the quench area.....

Now we check the squish we ended up with, then see how much we want to remove from the base.

I gotta work on something else for a bit......be back soon.

This is definitely the best saw building thread I've seen. I too wish I could see a video on every stage of the build. Anyway the lathe work and the porting work. Thanks a lot Randy. I thought I heard Stevie Ray Vaughan on one of those videos. You're a man of fine taste also.

I figured some part of the consumption/digestion/elimination process was involved...

Definately the best/ most in depth build thread we've ever had on AS. -"In Mastermind We Trust!"

Ever thought about replacing the 2 piece shaft on your indicator, with a single solid piece?

I use the adjustable jointed piece a lot Thomas. It's real handy.
