  1. Error's for what ever reason are costly Table saws ,Chain saws ,band saws ,punch presses * of course MOTOR CYCLES ,None feel, taste or care ,even the best attempts at safety some times is not enough ,Murphy lives ,usually when you think you are in command is when accidents happen .a small flying stone just caused the death of a motor cycle driver yesterday .Anytime you play with fire there is the chance you will get burned ,all you can do is the best you can and pray Murphy is some where else that day ,even the osha cowboy is not exempt!
  2. The swivel tip of clamping screw ,has come out of the clamping screw ,normally it pivots ,but remains connected much like the movable tip on a c-clamp It came out ,and got distorted ,and egg shaped enough that it can no longer return with the clamp screw into the hole it rides in , I scanned sketch ,for some reason came out crazy ,I hope it makes some kind of sense ,parts ordered ,replacing complete clamp unit upper and replacing set and clamp screw lower also.

  4. Well I bit the bullet ,may have found part of the problem ,The rotary tip on the clamps screw came out of the clamp screw and I have been unable to get it out of the clamp ,evadently ,it is woperjawed some way ,even tried to press out with opposite set screw to no avail ,got it realigned I can at least use it till parts get here ,so I ordered a new upper clamp assembly two new set screws and two new clamp screws ,Lord knows it's earned It's keep the number of times used in the years I have had the saw ,this is the first issue I have had with it ,so after they get here I will replace them all and keep the lower clamp screw for a spare ,the issue will be resolved ,the clipping does really help especially in the center of a large fret pattern .Thanks for all the input and advice !
  5. Your lucky to have found the answer for you my spirals , even the supposed flat ones are not,That little twist seems to want to twist and bow in some kind of fashion when I clamp up ,the longer the tail the worse it gets ,the possibility that I over tighten is always there ,or that I use more tension then others but The shorter blade has helped as well bottom loading ,as long as the set screw tip is out past the clamps edge should not an issue if both top and bottom are alike .I don't have issues with straight blades ,which make me think it's the slight twist ! I will try easing off on the tightening to see if that has any impact ,I like others run a blade till it won't cut good ,so there are many many re -clamps involved .
  6. Blade end distortion has been a ever present frustration ,when doing a mega hole pattern ,To eliminate the 90% of the problem ,I clip the blade off 1/8" above the clamp mark on the blade ,just about where the bend always starts ,makes threading much much easier and stops blade fatique at the end from cross threading at insertion .It also helps alignment for next clamp ,being a bottom loader shorter blade also helps ,you only clamp in is area ,everything above 1/8" is problematic any way,Should work equally well to top loaders as well .Works for me hope it helps some of you too!

  16. I while back one of my grand sons ,came home with a extra credit project to build a strong popcycle bridge ,for school ,a contest to build a structual bridge to be pressure tested to test it's strength .We discussed angles ,and trusses, cross bracing and the like , He designed one and built it ,we discussed it's weakness 's .Then he taunted me to build one that I thought was stronger . The deal was to take both to school and bring home the winner under identical test and stop testing once the winner was proven ,and not keep going till distruction of the winner was accomplished.Heres the winner !
