Great attention to detail. I have a Thomas 14" cold saw similar. Every time I use it, I think about some sort of semi-auto feed system, to replace that awfully long arc travel of the manual feed handle.
I am 84 years old and have worked on many things, but never been able to aquire the skill to sharpen drills ! Years ago i saw a tool grinder in a machine shop sharpen a four flute two inch drill by hand ! I was green with envy !
I have done a passable job of it purely out of necessity, but I'm very excited to finally own a large drill sharpener. Your reference to a four flute drill made me smile 🙂 I was practically dancing after I made a four flute drill look like new in about 3 minutes with this machine.
Great job. I always wanted one since the seventies, when i was an apprentice. Till today, i couldn´t afford one, even here in Germany. I have several metal cutting machines in the shop, but that smoothly slow running always fascinates me.
I don't think I have ever seen a saw of any kind where the blade cuts against the moveable jaw before that is a new one for sure. Good job making a vise, a much better choice than trying to play the long game of finding an original.
Same here, I am assuming that feature has something to do with it's unique vertical slide with rack and pinion drive. It definitely feels a bit odd in operation.
Could I get you to do a short video and exactly how the saw works how the table pivots in the saw moves up and down on the column I’ve been wanting to convert my cold saw to that kind of set up and considered different designs like to see what the old Germans did. It was probably better than anything I could think of
@@perpetualmotion1 Any chance you can rewire the motor to make the saw cut in the opposite direction, or would that also impact the coolant (oil) pump?
@@Hey_Its_That_Guy it could definitely be reversed but it has a big arrow indicating rotation, I'm operating on the assumption that the Germans know what they are doing 🙂
Because it's a three phase motor reversing it is obviously easy, but the manufacturer plainly designed it to operate this way for some reason. So I'm leaving it alone on the assumption that the Germans knew what they were doing.
Personally I think the last owner re wired the motor or the plug wrongly switched over two of the phases, and just flipped the blade over to allow it to cut. Seems incredibly dangerous to have the blade cutting towards the operator and lifting the material out of the vice. Please be safe around it. 👍🏴

It is a bit awkward to have to reach out so far to begin with.

Neat job on the vice, It was also great to see the Sellers drill grinder in action. Keep up the good work!
Thank you, that's what playing looks like in my world 🙂

It is an amazingly versatile machine, it does a fantastic job even with years of abuse such as this one has experienced.
Enjoyed the machining 👍
I had to edit down the two hours of footage I started with 😬
Happy days Tony ey up mate 👍

I'll try to get some better footage of that, shoot me an email and I'll send you a link directly.
That saw sure is slick. I've never seen a drill sharpener like that one. What a beast!
Despite an obviously enormous amount of use and abuse the saw does work surprisingly well. The drill grinder has been an amazing addition to the shop!

Neat saw.
I bought it on a whim, now that I have it I'm realizing it is a lot handier than I had anticipated.
Thanks for showing that tapping clutch thing for the lathe....now I need one 😅
It was one of the tools that came with the boring Mill when I got it, I looked them up recently, they were bringing $600-$700 on eBay 🤯
8:58 is that wiggles we see in the background.? Happy days buddy, scary set up on the saw direction mind you, thanks for sharing, have a great one
Probably, he was tinkering around with other projects while I was working on this.
Cutting towards the operator, and lifting the workpiece?? I look forward to the video where you fix that crazy setup to cut the other direction.
Ingenious!
This is the kind of stuff I waste time on when I should be working on paying jobs 😂
But that is the kind of stuff that helps with the paying jobs!! 🙃
A saw designed to chuck the stock at the operator. What genius engineer dreamed that one up?
Nice! She cut parallel?
After I adjusted the stop it was dead nuts on.
Can't you reverse the polarity on the motor, so the blade cuts in, rather than out?

It has a big arrow right on it that indicates the direction of rotation, I agree that it seems pretty bizarre but it's obviously factory that way.
A Sellers drill grinder?...Is it wrong to covet another mans drill grinder? Damn thats a nice tool.
A real drill grinder has been on my wishlist for a long time 😁
The teeth are pointed towards the operator.
Yep, that's how Trennjaeger designed it.
The handheld footage is unwatchable without Dramamine.
😂 need a barf bag?
just change the rotation on the saw..
That is factory.
