No Idea Posted January 24 #1 Posted January 24 Just a heads up- there is a table saw and thickness sander for sale in the UK. Nothing to do with me but I thought I’d let you all know Mike Y, Nirvana and Ryland Craze 3

pppilot Posted January 28 #4 Posted January 28 Byrnes is back in production. I just received a brand new new production saw on Jan 25, 2025, ten days after placing the order. The website is not working, the email is sporadic, but a phone call puts you in touch with a very nice lady who will take your order and process it quickly. Apparently they have found someone to produce the tools and are making them rather quickly. mine is very nice and is of great quality-just like the "old" ones. Note the date on the packing slip.

GGibson Posted January 28 #6 Posted January 28 56 minutes ago, No Idea said: If that’s true that’s amazing news 👍👍 Yep, it's true. Congrats, pppilot, on your new saw. I've had my new Byrnes saw since August. Ordered it on 8/5, received it on 8/13. Donna has been awesome in getting Byrnes Model Machines back to operational. Donna told me that Mike was a protege of Jim's and has helped her tremendously in that effort. druxey, alde, Nunnehi (Don) and 3 others 6 Gregg Current Projects: Completed Projects: Waiting for Shipyard Clearance: Santa Maria Caravelle 1:48 - Ships of Pavel Nikitin Norwegian Sailing Pram 1:12 - Model Shipways USS Constitution 1:76 - Model Shipways Muscongus Bay Lobster Smack 1:24 - Model Shipways Yacht America Schooner 1851 1:64 - Model Shipways H.M.

If she's really turned a corner and Byrnes products are going to be available again, it would be nice if say the NRG sent her a congratulations card on behalf of all the modelers at MSW. bruce d, Mike Y, No Idea and 6 others 9 Building HM Cutter Lady Nelson 1:64

No Idea Posted February 1 Author #12 Posted February 1 Well..............Its had a bid. I feel sorry for the buyer as they could import a brand new saw into the UK for £750 including taxes and shipping
Nunnehi (Don) Posted February 2 #13 Posted February 2 (edited) Just noticed that the link to Byrnes has been removed - perhaps it’s getting an update? Edited February 2 by Nunnehi (Don)
