blame Posted March 20, 2009 Author Report Posted March 20, 2009 clayton got it those where a real beast of a saw no safety of any kind usually sized between 16" and up to 36" blades if you got caught up in one your a goner for sure. sure would like to find one to make into a mini saw mill! Quote
Travis Posted March 20, 2009 Report Posted March 20, 2009 So the key safety note here is to not wear loose clothing around this machine. No resawing lumber in your bathrobe or cape. Quote
blame Posted March 20, 2009 Author Report Posted March 20, 2009 lol Travis yeah dont know about resawing on one with your superman cape on might make you feel good till it gets caught up in the blade Quote
