Who's a happy bunney now then!

The Hegner quick clamp is way over priced IMHO but it is also essential, once you have used one you will find it indispensable.

I use my quick clamp all the time with my Hegner, I never use a normal top clamp.

If you only buy one Hegner accessory make certain it is the Quick clamp!

I think I must be invisible!

Don't take it to heart me old pal, the last post on a page often gets overlooked, but anyways, we'd already covered the quick clamp and moved on to the quick tensioner.

Never . . . . I think he was just excited following the links for the extras :wink:

When I bought my Hegner 2SV variable speed saw a few years ago it came with the quick release and quick clamp as standard (although I didn't have to pay £806 for it!!). Get BOTH of them if you can afford them, you won't regret it.

When threading a blade through the wood clamp it using the quick clamp (just a turn of the knob by hand. Then push the quick release tension lever backwards and you're good to go. The correct tension is automatically applied and you can start cutting straight away.

I cannot stress enough the time you'll save by using these two devices which gives you more time cutting (and enjoying yourself) and less time phaffing about connecting blades and resetting the tension.

Sorry Scrimper I had a delivery at the front door and lost all track of what I was doing lol. Thanks for the advice I will be getting a quick clamp.

Thank you Barry, good to hear from somebody who uses both the clamp and tensioner. I'll have to wait for a while to get both thou funds are a little low at the moment after having a spending spree over the last few weeks lol.

I only wondered if I was on some ignore lists since a comment I made a couple of weeks ago, I often make posts offering advice (probably not quality advice I admit) but no one comments and I thought I had caused some upset and been banished.

 

[Grayo]

Hi Scrimper,

Your not on my ignore list and any advice good or bad is gratefully appreciated form me.

Many thanks

Graham

Just ordered the quick clamp and the dust extraction kit for my Hegner. Anybody got any idea how long it takes for delivery ???

I ordered my Hegner part at the weekend and received it on Tuesday via Fed-ex, so I presume it's a next working day delivery service.
I was very happy to receive my parcel in quick time.

Blimey that was quick so going by that it should arrive by Friday or knowing my luck Monday lol. I wanted to order the foot pedal as well but will have to wait for that until funds are available again lol given the old wallet a bashing the last few weeks.

On a side note I phoned one of the many pet stores around our area this afternoon and asked if they would be interested in buying any bird nesting boxes I have made. He sounded very positive and asked me to take a few down to show him on Friday, so we'll see what happens.

 

[Grahamshed]

Happy for you grayo.

 

[ChrisR]

Graham.

I always purchase my blades from Hegner, and it is next day delivery, providing that the order was not placed late in the working day.
Good luck with the bird boxes.

Take care.

Chris R.

 

[Grayo]

Thank you both, we'll see what happens with the bird boxes, he might say I got to pay him to sell them lol.

Re the Hegner order I placed the order about 2:30pm this afternoon so probably missed the postage for today. Never mind I'm sure it will arrive on Friday.

If you registered an account on the Hegner website then you can go into your order details and it should tell you the status, eg. Shipped.
If it has been shipped there will also be a tracking number so you can track your parcel.

Just checked it say's pending. But just had the fright of my life. Looking at the totals of the purchase and it's doubled the cost for what I had. Have a look below what's all that about ?????

Item(s) Total 79.10GBP
Delivery 1.99GBP
Payment Method 0.00GBP
VAT 16.22GBP
Est. Order Total 97.31GBP

The total price paid was £49.85 so what's all that about above

 

[Roughcut]

Hmmm I don't know?
But if I was you I would give them a ring in the morning to find out.
ps. just noticed your delivery charge is £1.99 so yours might be sent by Royal Mail.
My parcel was over 2kg with postage charge of £7ish and came by Fed-ex.

 

[Grayo]

Looking at the order it looks like the quick clamp is out of stock. It says available to order. Yes very strange All I have paid is the £49.85 so don't know what's going on there.

Why not get one of these? Easily wired up, and a damn sight cheaper than the Hegner one.
