saw vice/holder

[Moparmyway]

FWIW, @Moparmyway made his own flag outa DOM 1” 4340 he had left over from his cage building days and welded the beck end of an old bar to it. Bingo.

Inspired by your creativity Doc .................

Nice. Cool ingenuity going on here.
Now.......if I only knew how to work on a saw. Lol

@rattler @paragonbuilder should be able to comment. This is Dan’s I beleieve. I think it didn’t fit certain Husky’s if the clutch was on.

Had a few min after lunch to try an idea floating in muh head for a vice base.

Trying to decide on a flag, or another rod that can swivel

I've seen that done with a trailer ball.

If I'm translating correctly, I'd definitely go with an axle-like swivel at 90 degrees.
I like to be able to rotate the saw on a horizontal axis like its a chicken on a rotisserie.

Funny how hard it is to explain something as simple as how something should spin/rotate/swivel.
Sort of like cylinder ex port heights, is stating it's higher/lower by the degree # or the actual physical distance...?

Yes, rotate on the horizontal axis.

Maybe even use a slip joint. (Like a dial indicator base/setup)

Adjustable height and any angle/reach within the length of the rods.

The fun thing about making these is the endless different ways to go about getting a similar function.
I like the slip/pinch type joints, I used them on the one I did on the first page simply because I could repurpose some surplus that had already been done for something else, made for a quick build.
