I was wondering exactly how that worked! Don't have any drill press clamps, but made a clamp type thing that I think might work in holding down the Jorgenson clamp. llana

Hi Ron ,
Brilliant article, you answered a lot of my questions,

I have a small Dimond saw, but I often want to saw some bigger stuff up,this would be just the job and also the slabbing vice,on the cutting table First rate. Last year I bought a angle grinder cutting table, now I can get it going.

Many thanks for sharing this, I will print it out for use when I retire (5 months time)

Happy tumbling,
Yours,

Jack,

I've been studying the pictures in anticipation of setting up my saw. Quick question....the water goes from the tray to the upper bucket and then from the upper bucket to the lower one and recycled back through? How does the water get to the upper bucket? I don't see any hoses going to it. Also, have you tried filtering through a knee hi nylon or some other sort of sock filter?

dandresow: Thanks. Haven't done anything with rocks for years. Just fixed an older HP 18 inch and dug out a 10 inch and 18in Lortone and I have a couple of trim saws and need to make something to cab with. We stay broke and I only have enough to put oil in 1 Dec 1, 2024 16:49:20 GMT -5 *
