That saw is great , The only issue is that if you have the blade partway down when you slide metal in the clamp and it hits the blade it will chip the carbide and start knocking teeth off oe chipping them with every cut. I need to get this blade repaired and have a spare. But other than that I don't know how I ever did it with an abrasive blade. Like you say sparks everywhere, dirt flying and stink plus a mediocre cut.

The hinges idea came from when I was a jeweler and we made all our hinges from tube and pin. As long as you have room for a tight pivot they work nicely. Just remember you weld the top of one and the bottom of the other, not the top of each, or the top and bottom of each,,,done that more than once and wondered why the jewelry box wouldn't open. The floor locks I bought online. Foot operated, one for each end. I'll show a picture when I get them in and on.

From what I hear the guy was upset but sees we are really doing a frame off and has seen what has to be done. I'm told he's excited about us doing it for him so that's a good thing.
