Excellent job. Very well done! I'd like to do a job like that on my
power hacksaw, but while ever it works well I doubt I'll get round to it, even if it looks a little scruffy. Chris |

Looks great James i'm envious. I almost picked up a pristine one and a
number of other bits from a company that had closed down and the site was being cleared but in the end the demolition contracters knocked the building down on top of the stuff as they couldn't be bothered to sell it. Probably time is money but I did get about £3k of slitting saws and side an face cutters for £60, covered that selling to some local model engineers. James Riser wrote: Done!

Masonite or acrylic makes a nice sacrificial base layer. Scrape acrylic
is really cheap. PVC foam (sintra is a trade name) is even cheaper. Find a sign shop nearby smaller pieces just get trashed. |

Nick;
I have several boxes of thin acetat sheeting (overhead projector type) that I plan on using as sacrificial material. The aluminum plate came wih the pantograph and the grooves were done by the previous owner. Fortunately, it is still flat enough to be useable. Jim ""Nick Müller"" wrote in message ...
