Some fresh blade pics to look at
« on: March 30, 2003, 10:50:17 AM »


These are made from 64" of 1X6 pine for each 30" blade. Thats one 30", one 22" and one 12" piece stacked as shown in ther raw blank on one side in the pics.


I'll comment them at a later time but for now some raw pics to laugh at:

New to the site, did you ever try drawing a pattern for your blades on a 45 gallon drum and cutting them out .A guy out of Peterborough Ontario told me this years ago.By gaging the thickness of the barrel you control the weight and apparently they have the almost perfect pitch.
