Vector01 Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 Well except for a 1/8 X 3-1/2" machine screw for the tensioning mechanism it's done. Made from 3/4" Oak and 3/8" canary wood (scrap from other projects). Overall it's 7-1/4" tall by 7-1/2" long. It's as close as I could get to the original picture. The hardest part was fitting a blade to the arms. I tried to bend the blades and kept snapping them. Finally figured just twist the ends to lock it in place. Got it so the arms will move up and down thanks to Grampa's cam idea Now if I can get it moving fast enough I can cut some wood [attachment=4]saw1.jpg[/attachment][attachment=3]saw2.jpg[/attachment][attachment=2]saw3.jpg[/attachment][attachment=1]saw4.jpg[/attachment][attachment=0]saw5.jpg[/attachment] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
