I've been waiting on a part for my HP 10 slab saw. I tried to replace it. The only part of the assembly I needed was the spring for disengaging the carriage. I had a piece of gem Owyhee rough I got from Tony at fullmoon. No pattern was showing for the listing picture. I took a guess and windowed a small face. The spring was too loose so the carriage moved very slowly. I gave up and completed the small cut on the trim saw. I got the cut orientation right. I'll put it aside until my HP 14 arrives.  |

Just add another spring to your HP10, should keep it from slipping.

There's a long wire at the end of the assembly. I made a loop at the end to hook around a bolt. I'm going to try bending it closer to the spring to increase tension. If that doesn't work, I'll find a spring. I expect to have my new 14 arrive in the near future and I can do a side by side comparison. Thanks for the suggestion. I have enough slabs and preforms to last for months. I make cabs ten times faster than I sell them. The 10 has a narrow kerf but is slow and great for small rough.
