 | Miniature table saws...Questions |
|
I've been looking into purchasing one of
the miniature table saws for cutting really
tiny wooden parts for some models I'm
building.
I'm looking for opinions from those in
the group who may own, or have used
one.
So far I've narrowed my choices to
either the Microlux 4 inch table saw,
sold locally thru Micro-Mark, (approx $329...ouch!!)
or the Jarmac 4 inch, sold thru
Penn State Industries. (approx $179)
Both of these saws have tilting arbors,
rip fences, mitre guages etc, and are
American made.
Or I could attempt to buy an older
Dremel saw from Ebay, but I understand
that drive belts for these saws are now
impossible to get. Experiences?
Opinions?
Other choices? I'm scaring the crap out of myself
trying to cut pieces 1/4 by 1/4 by 3 inches
long on any of the machinery I currently
own.
---------------------
Don't know how many of these pieces you need but why not just buy some 1/4"
square "dowels" and cut off 3" long pieces with a fine tooth dovetail saw?
I saw 1/4" square hardwood dowels at the new Lowes in Netcong not so long
ago. You could buy an awful lot of it for the price of a new specialty saw.
