Wichman Posted March 31, 2021 Report Share Posted March 31, 2021 Ordered the saw 3-17, delivered 3-23. Under a week, holy cow!. Assembled and running on the 23rd. Finally had some time to start cutting test patterns. I didn't have the table squared to the blade, but fixed that tonight. One of the things I cut uses a sliding dovetail 1 1/2 inches thick, so I cut some test ones in material just under an inch. Stacked 3/16" 4 in the stack so 12/16". The curvy thing is a "sky hook" a balance toy to amuse the kids. Some pictures: TexasDIY, Seeseasaw, stoney and 3 others 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OCtoolguy Posted March 31, 2021 Report Share Posted March 31, 2021 I'm glad you are happy. The Hegner is a great saw and will outlive you, more than likely. I'm in the hunt for another one. I figured that I can spend as high as $250 for an older one that needs the updates. They will come to about $250 with shipping. There's one out there with my name on it.
