Looks like you're on your way with that!! Nice looking blade, too. If you don't mind my asking, where'd you get if from? If you already said, I missed it. I hear ya about outgrowing things. I have a huge shed with a "ell" on it. The ell was my glassworking shop. I quickly out grew that. After I quit glassworking, I then panned to use the big side for rock stuff. The kids have kinda taken over that so..... I guess, I'll just have to wait 2 years for them to move back out. As it is, I have rocks everywhere, I even started a rock garden. Good idea, a rock garden. When do you harvest? I need to try that! I have some nice stuff, that I need more of!

Tela I bought it through Shawn at The Rock Shed. I buy everything I possibly can through him. He has the best prices, best costumer service and a small business owner.

That's a really great setup! After reading this thread I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to repent. I'm sure the Bible says, "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbors saw or his rocks or any other thing that is part of thy neighbors rock hobby." Jasper 9:11 I'm in trouble with that one, I tell ya! Omg'sh I seriously just laughed out loud!!! Love the Jasper 9:11. Jaspers happen to be my favorites 😂

Dang, Ur eyes are on fire. I know I know... family pick at me all the time. In my pictures all you see is teeth an eyes 😂 I also have Chronic Dry Eyes. They are always a bit red which enhances the blue. Would be great if I didn't always look high and feel like I have a pound of sand in them.

Company FINALLY went to bed! Did I mention FINALLY ...? *sigh* Can still outlast the best of 'em! I highly approve of the shop rearrangement. Saw by door, fan can blow mist outside. GOOD JOB Please excuse me while I go pass out. Not even normal bed time yet, but this was a looong night of drinking. bingo = livin' on the edge! You go girl.

Stupid Man Written directions!!! Looking at the motor mounting hardware and directions this shouldn't be this dang difficult!! Assuming you already know how motors work and should be mounted that is... I received the following: Wow REALLY??? Then the mount comes with 10 FREAKEN holes. I only have 2 long bolts and 4 short ones. Doesn't mention any of these or what holes they go in. To make it harder the mounting late on the motor looks like this: REALLY? ?REALLY!!!! So no help there on anything even remotely looking like a proper placement fit compared to the 50 holes on the Saw Mount. With this part I'm assuming you put it on like pic 2 after belt alignment then tighten the screw??? Pic 1 Pic2 Any suggestions??? captbobjamesp@anybodythatknowsmotors

Line the pulley up with the pulley on the saw, see which holds match those on the motor, use those holes.

Glad you got it figured out. I was going to ask. If not, I was going to start typing. I didn't think you were shorted hardware. Have fun.

I have met actual mechanical engineers that didn't know which end of screwdriver to hold.
I messed him up once when he had an issue, telling him he needed a left handed ratchet for that job.
ETA
He was changing his muffler bearings
Yeah, i did that too

Bardahl "no smoke" dosed at 1oz per gallon of mineral oil all but completely removes oil mist. Maybe 3% of mist remains compared to none used. works great. almost zero mist, and i use less than 1oz/gal
