I like it. What did you name it, Thermidor ?

Yup, I went in with two came out with one, he now has a nice new lamp stand.... :lol:

Blimey just woke up. Roy. he's ok, completely harmless, just don't tell him you have a wooden leg or such, it will end up on a lathe as you wobble about :lol: I got the old nervous twitch when I first met him as I do with everyone and blethered on like a kid. Anyway good thing was I got the...

A big thanks to Rich today for sorting out my immediate need for a table saw. mind you I am not sure where I plug this Tyzack brass back in !, or how to adjust the blade depth :lol: . Nice to have met the man in person too ( just so those of you who haven't met him know, hes as mad as a...

Oh you sure know where to kick a guy. Erm, I did that last year when my daughter Tash came over from france, I told her if she behaved for her grandparents this year then I would give her a Grand for a car to replace the scooter as she complained her and her fella couldn't go out in the rain...

Well, concrete isnt my thing, and I like steel, I feel safer. But its all on hold right now, some little person here just conned me for a new bike, mind you it was my own fault, I opened my mouth to him and said if you can ride your old bike without the stabilisisers without falling of more than...

Thanks Digit, I did google but not for that, only for like build your own saw or table saw plans. If a mod is watching I think this should be moved to the projects forum as thats the way its going.......

Never thought of that, then again it would probably cost me a fortune in petrol going to all them scrappies, I like visiting that kind of place, amazing what you find in them. Thanks.

Taken Rich, and thanks

George. I was going to build it all encased as is the original one, a box frame with casing around it, the saw itself would just be "plonked" in as is, so that should be safe enough, ( I wish I could draw this thing good enough so you could see my idea) as for the top I was going to go with flat...

I am Digit, I already have half the besi clone steel, I got it the other day which is one reason I found my saw was naff. cleaned the welder up as well, surprised it still works after 4 years in storage although the wire was rusty. Just need to save for the steel needed, according to the guy I...

Thanks Rich. I am still going to make one though, even if just for the adventure.. I was thinking if I used my top and it came straight I could put it on a cradle as such that supported it and then go ott by welding some bits to the front and rear of that so I can put a home made besi clone...

I see nothing Barmy in it, I don't suppose the companies or those who have done it did either. would you tell Philly his planes were barmy ?. Have to start somewhere and something better than I have now can only be a bonus.

Ok, I think I want to take my old saw and build a new one from the bits. Would you use box section steel for a case or something else would you use flat section steel for the top or something else ie the old top bolted to runners attached to the new base ( the top I have is way of flat, but...
