Interesting video, thanks 618.
I enjoy power hacksaws they aren't real fast but nice to set, then let it work. Built one almost 30 years ago, it worked slick but sold it during a move to build a new house.
I built myself a power hacksaw back in the early days as a home machinist, it served me well until I got my 4x6 Asian bandsaw, what a difference.
I still have the much abused, repaired, modified 4x6 but my home made 9 x 17 bandsaw is the do all (pun intended) and end all now.

Here's another design for a small power hacksaw.

Tom, is there any reason you quoted me for this post?
Steve - if you hit the reply button at the bottom of a post it automatically quotes that post. If you type into the quick reply box (as I am doing now) it doesn't. My guess is that was the case. No need to be paranoid - I doubt he is stalking you
Thanks Darren, I'll sleep better tonight.
Don't get comfy, I still have a bridge I want to show you.
