new 1x30 homemade

vaquero57 · Feb 18, 2001

This is my new 1x30 I made today for a total cost of $0. I used some square steel tubing from an old deer stand I made in high school. Check it out and tell me what you think. Cory

Hey, Cory, that's great! Thanks for the photos, and for sending the pulleys so fast. Looking forward to seeing more of your knives any time now...

Very inventive, Cory!! The spring and chain tensioner is amazingly simple!

Take care!! Michael

Always think of your fellow knife makers as partners in the search for the perfect blade, not as people trying to compete with you and your work!

Thanks guys. Disregard that I forgot to pretty it up with paint. When I got done I was so excited that I forgot all about it. Shiny paint will not make it sand better though. Cory

What did you use for the wheels and were did you get them

Nice job. I just finished a 1x 30. I am amazed at how much faster it cuts than my 4 x36. Keep up the good work.
