From the last session we are going to cut out the ‘throat’ so we can mount a temporary table which will be replaced later on with a final version.
After this we’ll get back to the blade arm, working down to something I like making – blade guides.
Marked out the cut lines and used a panel saw to cut the bottom one.
I’ll do the top angled one with the Ozito multi purpose saw. I need to swap the metal cutting blade for a timber one but before I do may as well cut the blade arm lock rod.
Now swap for the timber one.
Like a jigsaw need to make a starter slot, drill some holes and clean up the cut edge with a keyhole saw – so we can start in a straight line.
The multi purpose saw did a good job, it’s a useful addition to the corded hand tools.
Now I’ll clean up with a small block saw.
In the next session we can put in some timber support to mount the temporary table.
