Default Cool conversion tool...

Hi guys,

I normally use my band saw when hacking off "everything that doesn't look like a model airplane engine" on my conversions. You often have to make multiple cuts doing that, and sometimes you get crossed up and tweak or break the bandaw blade. But today I decided to try one of my other tools, and it's "The Bomb" for doing conversions. Here it is: http://www.harborfreight.com/high-sp...saw-91753.html It's cheap!

It worked great. I am assuming a lot of you already have compressors in order to run the tool.... The blades are only "fair" quality, so don't force them, and it would be a good idea to buy a pack of extra blades if you buy the tool. But it really does work good for converting engines, and I am sure you will find other hobby uses for it as well.
