The 038 is a possibility. . . As I have a couple myself. Our focus will have to be this first run, then we will be looking into the other saws.

Nice, Thanks for the reply. I would buy one for sure if you decided to make them.

Bump.

Very nice, a few more stepping up to the table. We'll make this project worth your while yet.


It's Christmas Eve...

Yes it is! My boys are watching the original Alice in Wonderland, and can't wait till Christmas morning.

Hoping those bottoms are machined before the 1st!

Any news Nate?

Any news Nate?

Yes. . . Doug is modifying the bender -- I was at the shop last Wednesday, and he still had a little more to do to it.

We had a box of bottoms dropped off at the shop too, so we're ready there. Doug had to pull his tranny this weekend (he put a Caddy motor in his truck, and he forgot to space something on the tranny), and his two Suburbans are down right now as well.

My truck broke down 2 months ago, so I'm without wheels. . . It's like mechanical hell dropped on our heads. LOL

I have a small handrail gig to do this afternoon, but I'll call Doug and see where he's at with the bender mods.

I'll make sure I post back when I find out if we're fabbing them this week.

 

[parrisw]

Cool, thanks for the update.

YEEEE HAAAWWWWW!

We were able to finish up some fixtures on the bender, and start bending up some handles. . . Should be welding by tomorrow!

Wondering...did Jason's MV hotsaw have anything to do with the design of these handles?

I thought Jason's hotsaw was a 2100?

Nate, I forget again, which handles are going to be available initially?

 

[parrisw]

Awesome! Looking forward to seeing some nice welds!

Yes, it is a 2100 and for sale BTW.

I remember when I ran it the handle was customized. It affected the leverage when you handled the saw. I guess a higher handle gave you better control when racing.

No, these handles were designed by Doug and I in the shop. Jason did however, test one of the first two we made.

JJ, the first available are 044/460, 066/064, 372 (and whatever else it fits?). . . Doug and I spoke tonight about one for 7900's, 038 (possibly), 361, and the 390/394/395 series Huskies.

I have you down for a couple 372's BTW.

Awesome! Looking forward to seeing some nice welds!

Gosh. . . Now I feel pressured to make them look sweet. hahaha

They'll all be covered with the coating, so you'll never know!

Was hoping for some progress pics.

Can't wait to get those 2 372 handles, I could use em now.

Teaser pics in my first post from today. . . This is of course a fallible plan, but Doug and I would like to get them shipped by next Thursday/Friday. Usually the way it goes in our shop, it'll take longer, but we'll have to see? We also have to call our coating guy and see when and how long it'll take him to get them sprayed.

I'll take more pics as we go.

I can use one now, I've gotten rid of a lot of my saws since the last time we talked.

No worries. . . Why did you get rid of a lot of your saws? To use for funding of other projects?
