Anyone made Myfordboy’s powered hacksaw?

I think I got it from M-Machine.

Thanks IRT.

I've found it in a few online metal stores as "0.710″ A/F BRIGHT MILD STEEL HEXAGON".

I'm based in Athens, Greece and sadly none of them post overseas.

I'll have to check the drawings and see if 17 or 19mm is possible.

Thanks.

Hi Toneless, M-Machine, mentioned above, posted to me in France, no problems.

I have been please with the saw so far.

It has seen plenty of use, and is still on the same blade.

A couple of days ago, I needed to cut of a block that I thought would really put it to the test. 2"x3" cold rolled steel.

This is the bar that convinced me I needed an alternative to arm power in the first place.

Okay – I admit it wasn't quick. It took about an hour, but I still cannot fault the accuracy or finish of the cut.
