Thread: Group Purchase - Second Saw Plate and Slit Brass

I would like 4 lengths at 900 mm.

4 lengths for me please. I don't need the brass though.
Thanks

BobL

Thanks Ray,
4x 900mm if possible please.
I can see that this saw making thing is going to be a life time of fun and learning.
All the best

I'll take just one 900 mm length please.

Ray, I would like to bump up my order to 6 lengths.

I have been working on my first two saws, and 4 people in my course have asked me to get some brass and plate for them.

Hello Rayg
I just saw your post, I'm not sure but I think you're making your own back saws, am I correct and could you tell me more. I feel a rush of blood coming on!

Please put me down for 2 sets as I am starting to gather projects cos I am getting close to catching up

What's the going rate Ray?

Hi BobL

I don't know the cost of the slit brass, I doubt it will be the same as last time, maybe a little cheaper?

The saw plate is $135 for 60 feet, which comes out to approx $7 per 900mm length.

Plus postage of course.

Hi Sheetmetal,

Yep, it's saw making season.

This group purchase is for slit brass (3/4 x 1/4) 20 thou slit, and 3" 20 thou 1095 spring steel saw plate. We are working in 900mm lengths, since that is convenient for postage and 3.6m stock sizes.

I have a friend with an engineering shop who is (after making some custom tooling) now set up to slit long lengths of brass stock.

Regards
Ray

Thanks Ray that is very good. I won't need any brass and I'll probably get KevJed to pick mine up and hold onto for the next time I return to Melb. Kev, I owe you a dinner!

Ray

Can you put me down for two lengths of the blade and slit brass please.

Regards

Thanks Ray, no rush - at this stage it won't be before mid december.

Sounds good guys. Thanks again Ray. I done my moving house thing. I'm still unpacking but I hope to get a saw or two made in the next few weeks.
Time...If I could just get a littel more of it.
all the best
