My diamond saw plans are the easiest, safest, and most effective plans for this type of equipment anyw The Vibrating Tumbler plans introduce a whole new way of achieving vibratory energy for abrasion, and unlike so many of the manufactured competitions machines, my design lasts and lasts and lasts. AND it is a lot simpler than anything out t Over 3 years of long-hours and self-financed R & D went into that design, and it is a better way. The Flat Laps and Bench Grinders are two good chapters with three or four different designs for the grinders, some mine, some gotten from seeing old timers machines. The Giant Rock Saw is a machine I had only heard about 15 years ago, but I built one about 6 years ago, and it works. These plans tell how to make the Giant Rock Saw, as well as my improvements made to the basic idea. The slabbing drop saw is an excellent design I recently came across, and thanks to Der Kid on that one. I have modified the design for simplicity w possible, and it really is a very easy way of making a precision diamond saw which will handle the largest blade sizes without any problems.
