Hello Oztules!

It's been Awhile! I see you've been keeping yourself busy.
Looks pretty good! what does your Alt. look like?
My location is windmill unfriendly, so I'm not in a hurry to cut myself some blades.
Still working/thinking of my waterwheel.

Right now closer to the front burner is a new pair of speakers. (can I say that here?)

I think I might try your trick at cutting myself some nice "thick" baffles.
I recently fixed up a Fisher 500c now find my old 86db/w@8r speakers to be "unfriendly"
Got anything 93 or better?

That mill your making... going to power the Island?

ax7!

The mill will power a very tiny part of the island, the pics of the alt are here: http://www.anotherpower.com/gallery/album96

The chainsaw jig seems to allow all kinds of things, and baffle are no problem, I'm now going use the same kind of thing to slit logs into planks into blades perhaps. There are some slitting blades that do the long grain cutting a bit faster...but could be prone to drift if not sharpened properly.. will check up on this soon.

>93.... tough ask I think. Particularly in now days of cheap high power.

nice unit the fisher smooth
