Aaaah..... I see...... Yes, there are a few who are skeptical about how INFI can chop through wood and still be shaving sharp. Also keep in mind that these 2X4 have been sitting out in the back corner of the shop loaded with all kinds of various dirt, grit, and granite dust. A true testament to the performance of INFI :thumbup:

YOWZA 2.97 sec is super duper fast!!!! Do you happen to know where I can see some pics of that cutting event? I am really curious to see how that 2X4 is held together for the cut. It must be held very firmly with hardly any give. They are also most likely doing it standing where you can generate much more force and speed by using the hips and whole body to drive the blade.

I only bring this up because we chop the 2X4 on top of plywood on a uneven floor. More importantly it is also done kneeling which simulates how I would most likely chop in the field. Alot of energy is dispersed through the give of the uneven floor. If I can't generate enough speed the cuts will be very shallow because the slower blade gives the 2X4 a chance to disperse the energy through the plywood and uneven floor. With speed there is less chance of that happening. Also, I cannot make full use of my hips and legs to drive my whole body into the cut while kneeling. I think I need to build a stand of some sort next time to see the difference.

But man 2.97 is crazy fast. I think I would be happy if I could do it in 7 secs... Ok 7 secs it is.... that will be my goal with a either a FABM or some other form of large Busse ;) Just give me a few years and alot of 2X4s to practice :D

If you had clicked on "Past Events", lot's of great action pics. You can see how they firmly support the board just below waist high. Great shots of bottle cuts.

Thanks Resinguy! I just checked it out. It looks like lots of fun for sure. I will try and see if I can build a setup like that for some chopping fun next time around.
 
yeah, a pic from the link for the lazy folks
