Those V-Link adjustable belts are awesome 👍. they last longer take vibration out of equipment because you can make them tight and remove a link after a little use and make them tight again.
Very nice thanks. Like the vise. I've built a couple a really long time ago but the vise used the threaded rod instead of the jamb bracket. This looks a lot easier.
Nice saw, I would love to build a big saw like yours. Great work thanks for sharing. I am currently building a 14" saw. I cheated on the housing side and used a cheap 150 parts washer I bought of off Amazon, along with a motor. I got my arbor shaft, pulleys from Covington. Working on design for the carriage and vise currently.
Thank you for the poke. Life and all that goes along with it. how did I ever have time to work? I will try to move it up the very long list of things to do.
Thank you for sharing! I'll have to look up rotisserie motors to see if they have a clutch mechanism. I'm currently building a diy saw about the same specs. I'm using surplus 80/20 aluminum for the framework
I'm currently involved in building an 18" saw, and it's a bit ugly but I've owned my mess and will make it work. At 77 I've discovered I don't weld so good anymore.. My tub leaked so I have just used JB Weld to seal it and will follow that up with bondo in the seams. I need to see where I can find a 3/8th inch all thread. I'm thinking I need to rethink my rails and use a 5/8th inch steel bar, but I will have to cut holes in my vice, and I'm wondering how the vice will travel on those bars. I rebuilt a 24" HP machine some years ago and it wasn't near as difficult as this mess is. It was a home made saw with a sheet metal tub which I discarded, but I have the new moter and the usable blade.Thanks for your video. I see a lot of innovations I haven't seen before.
With regards to your tub leaking so did mine that is why you see me painting the Red Coat on the inside. Red coat is avaliable at auto parts stores . easier than bondo. Red Coat is formulated to seal gas tanks like rusty motorcycle tanks. I found the allthread I used at McMasters and Carr. They are a supplier of all kinds of usefull things. I will try to help in anyway I can.
@@sproulehomestead2902 You have already been helpful. Actually I built my tub with the slanting floor and a channel for the blade like you did. I've been looking at the product Red Coat, and I saw it was expensive,, $40ish for a quart. That may be all I need. I read about other products and I didn't like the reviews, so now you are making me think I should use the Red Coat instead of the Bondo, but how will that product adhere to the JB Weld epoxy I used? Is it actually a kind of paint? Can you paint over it? Thank you again for your time and your reply.
I'm not too sure, but even with the blade added I think around 1000.00 dollars. I found many of the parts on-line, Aircraft Spruce for the brass bushings, thebigbearingstore.com/ for the bearings and other parts. thank you for your question, always willing to help.
I live in Roseburg Oregon and I would like to meet you to get some tips and pick your brain can we meet or something I would like to know more im a welder fabercater machinest.can u help I live in green and have a shop
Great work, thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching! tell your friends.
Nicely done. And living in Oregon, you'll have lots of good material to cut in your new machine.

I always knew I could build the arbor but coming up with an easy to build and use clamp was the thing that stumped me.

If you are looking to use how I built my saw Aircraft spruce is a good place for parts as well as the big bearing store,com
Very nice work here, thank you for showing us a way to build one.
glad you see some value in my work still trying to get another video put together that will show more of the setup.
@@sproulehomestead2902 Still waiting on that video Sproulehomestead. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.

@@sproulehomestead2902 No worries, I have a few cliff hangers out there too my friend.

How much in materials did you think you spent?
