Dry Cut Saws

[plow]

Just found about these today. I have to have one. I have the typical abrasive chop saw, but this thing puts it to shame. The dry cut saw turns slower that its abrasive counter part.

I would rather build one as I have most of the components laying around here except the arbor. Thought about direct coupling the arbor (where do you get these anyway) to a 1740rpm 3hp 220vac motor but you would loose alot of your cutting capacity. So! Y'all think belt driven with a jack shaft would do it? I have alot of 4" square tubing to cut.

The fabrication board might have more info to give on this sort of thing.

Some people like them. I have a DeWalt and hate it. Makes a hot mess and flings razor sharp shavings everywhere. Would much rather use a mitering head bandsaw or an actual cold saw (with coolant).

Yep. I wasn't thinking. Thanks.

I'll keep this in mind, Thanks for the info.
