I finely got the 20" running. Didn't get the oil until Friday. Took over a week to receive it. With the shipping charges I thought it would be same day delivery. ;D The saw had a water hyd feed system. I didn't like that so I changed it to air hydraulic. Turned out I had to build my own cylinder because I couldn't find any that would work. Saw Some slabs Tiger Eye Obsidian Jasper? Sure would like to know Enjoy........MrP

Interesting slab saw. I think I've seen one similar somewhere before but it's been a long while. I'd think a hydraulic feed would be very good for adjusting to different hardness materials. Pretty cool. Nice slabs too! That last one, depending if it's agate or opalite, could be Aussie Dendritic Opalite that comes in white and yellow base or an agate similar to Parral Dendritic Agate if it's agate....Mel

Mel The hydraulic feed does work great. Just a twist of the regulator and the pressure can be changed. I played worked with it some more and really like it. I thought the rocks I had were big but with this saw they are small. Guess I will just have to start getting bigger ones ;D.......MrP
