Bob Blarney Posted July 4, 2017 #1 Posted July 4, 2017 Hello, If you live within a reasonable distance of Youngstown, Ohio, I saw this ad for a Hammond Trim-O-Saw at a very reasonable price. These saw were built for printers to trim lead type, are very precise, and have a cult following. The design is unique and are of sturdy battleship grade construction. I suggest that you do some background reading first, but these saws are legendary. This one appears to be decontaminated of lead, but I would carefully inspect it to be sure if you are not prepared to manage that contingency. https://youngstown.craigslist.org/tls/6174340983.html
Bill Tuttle Posted July 9, 2017 #2 Posted July 9, 2017 Bob, I have read reviews on this saw in the past and it is certainly a great saw for the modelmaker. Would jump all over this if it was in my area. Good price too. I approached many of the local printers looking for one lurking in their basement and was unsuccessful in my search. Hope a modelmaker can catch up with this one. mtaylor 1 Bill Current Build: Kate Cory Scratch Built Previous Builds: Benjamin W. Latham Scratch Built H A Parks Skipjack Scratch Built Charles W.
