Hi Guys, Since there appeared to be some interest in my idea for an upright pinblock removing jig that that takes minutes not hours I will open it up to ideas and discussion of ways to make it work. The plan as it stands is to use what's called a Praxi Beam Cutter (a 12 inch chainsaw) that attaches to a worm drive circular saw. Then to somehow mount, either to the piano or independently, two parallel tracks like panel saw tracks. These would have to be adjustable for depth and also be able to mount at an angle for blocks that are deeper at one end. And for Terry, I had thought about a modification that would allow for cutting off the sides too. So there it is all ideas and suggestions will be considered and full credit given in every case and anyone who wants to can sell this thing I just want to be able to get the darn blocks out. By the way that Bolduc jig is still for sale. Looking forward to the ideas. all the best Michael _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!
