Jim Finn Posted November 4, 2016 Report Share Posted November 4, 2016 OK ....what is a "quick release blade"? Does Olsen sell them? I have had some "inadvertent release" blades but I doubt that is what you mean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTCowpoke22 Posted November 4, 2016 Report Share Posted November 4, 2016 I had to google the quick blade release and found a youtube video from the Poor Man's Shed. He used a cam locking system to create his own quick release blade system. Looks like it'd work alright if you keep the handle out of the way of your work.

I started out with a $69 Performax saw (They are not made anymore.) Went to Goodwill and bought a child size bicycle for (5 or $6 ??) and used the clamp that held the seat height. It was an improvement over using the T wrench to clamp the blade, but a little cumbersome. jerry Joe Duncan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
