SAWESOX

I just wanted to clarify my post the weights are broken into two columns one for as green (i suppose fresh cut) and the other is as dried. as you can see the heavy one should be more dense,they all have unique properties though SAWESOX AKA LUNGEBOB

Thanks KEN I will try that. SAWESOX AKA LUNGEBOB

Hi Just would like to get some information or opinions on what is the preferred method of cutting the slot for cranks,i have used a bandsaw,scroll saw and a dremel,would a tablesaw be better? i would think this could be somewhat dangerous depending on the thickness,please lend me thoughts on the subject sawesox aka lungebob

PLEASE REVIEW THE THREAD ON WOOD WEIGHTS I HOPE THIS WILL HELP SAWESOX AKA LUNGEBOB
