I'm replicating an Apple arrow saw and have assembled all the bits. 1/15hp motor from Grainger, on/off switch and cord, aluminum L-bracket and yardstick, 3.5" cutting wheels, and I'm short the sliding nock holder, and arbor for the motor, and I'd like a guard too for that cutting wheel.
Not having made metal stuff like this, I'm lacking in resources to purchase the above items. Can you readily get this stuff somewhere.
Will I spend more time building it and in parts than just ordering the Apple and getting it over with?
No I don't want a harbor freight mini cutoff setup, thanks.
Anyone?
i use a yardstick and furring strip jig with my shop vise and a dremel tool never had a problem my whole out fit cost me $5 in cutoff wheels everything else i had or was given what ever you decide i wouldnt spend too much $$$ i dont think it will be worth it in the end
You can buy one cheeper than the parts

JOEBO have I told you I love you today? AWESOME. TG to the rescue. Glad I have all the receipts....
Thanks!
Joebo,
Was looking for a saw and that one you posted previously caught my eye. Looks nice, right $$$, and I assume 5,000 rpm is sufficient for carbon. Any other comments on it, pros and cons appreciated. Looking forward to getting into this arrow building thing!
I see your changing direction, but the arbor can be had at Grainger's also. Then you just have to make the sldie which is pretty easy.
