  1. Great job Kevin Thanks for posting a picture and the mention I like to see the patterns cut and do save a copy of every one that gets posted or I cut myself you did your usual great job on it and the other cut too. Thanks again I cannot remember doing that one so not 100% if it is actually my pattern or I could be having a senior moment of course and it is mine

    Hegner Multimax 22-V

    It is a Hegner as in HEGNER no more needs to be said apart from go get yourself one On a serious note all the things said so far I would agree with it is a great saw and very robust the reliability factor of these made me decide to get one of these rather than any others yes thye are a little expensive but if you have not had to throw any more money at it int he time you have had it that will outweigh the higher price compared to others, I use mine on all sorts of materials with no problem thick or thin the vibration I do not think is bad at all neither is the noise of it either have yet to get round to making a clamp/sawdust collector for the bottom of it I still just have a carrier bag under it to catch the clamp if it pops out.
  5. Great idea
  6. Nicely done on both the cut and pattern

  11. Hi Andy I have cut the odd vinyl record and will help you as best I can what sort of pattern etc are you thinking of doing vinyl can be tricky as if you cut too slow it melts back in too fast it also could melt back in . If you are thinking of using a normal blade forget it this is a spiral only I have tried all other blades they all chip the vinyl to pieces I tape mine up as I would with wood with blue painters tape I then spray glue the pattern on . I have seen others who have tried say they cannot get to grips with it too many fuzzies you cannot remove because it has melted back in etc etc I cut my vinyl at the fastest I can go it is different from cutting wood with vinyl you are trying to go at the best speed you can I also brush off any fuzzies straight after I cut each piece with a stiff toothbrush to stop it melting back on. Other than that I cut as you would wood just quicker try and use the older style of vinyl as well that is slightly thicker and it helps, I tend to pick up vinyls shake them in my hand to see how floppy they are too much and I use them ones as backers , Hope some of this may help you if you need any more help please feel free to ask or pm me I will help if I can .
