try splitting it with wedges & a sledge hammer ... From: Steve S To: multihull_boatbuilder@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, November 11, 2009 1:29 PM Subject:...
Don't take this wrong, just asking, but are you an experienced chain-sawyer? There are quite a few issues that have to be addressed on a chainsaw: chain...
For what it is worth, it seems to me that using a chain saw is not using the right cutting teeth for your job. What I have used once before was a heavy duty...
Paul, This is the main aka beam, so still on the first cut-line, I picked the hardest spot to start with, after all, once that's out of the way the rest will...
Cannot get there. I've cut about 18" deep all the way across the main beam in the hull, call it the main load bearing bulkhead also. Have cut about 18" -20" in...
Spent a year and a half doing the maintenance for a tree trimming company. Keeping 7 to 10 saws going in the field. Put a new bar and chain on yesterday do to...
My whole problem is the location of the filler material. It is out of reach of anything but a long bar chainsaw. I'm going to try running a water hose on the...
yeah, lotta chain sharpening going on. Put up some pics in Morning Light's folder of the cutting. Last 8 pics are current. Now at the point of working from the...
This would be my suggestion too, or a Sawzall with carbide tipped blade. Take it slow. Light feed or the saw may stall. Teeth will probably need sharpening...
The carbide grit is inefficient in wood, and most of the material is wood. Carbide teeth work much better for the wood, and should handle the filled epoxy OK...
Steve, What exactly is the composition and thickness of your cut? (nearest 1/4 ot 1/8 inch estimates will do) Cheers, Peter ... From: "Steve Studley"...
Ignore my query on thickness, this post says it all. Big problem. Can you not work around it by cutting out a larger piece and then reduce it in other...
Of course if all these suggestions fail you, then see where the nearest Army Tank corp are near you!! Amazing what a main Battle Tank will do !! Anthony...
ah! Now I see. I thought you were just trying to get it all into a dumpster or something. :) So... hmmm. What about a long hand saw? Can you get in there with...
Actually don't know, now that I only have the part in the hull left it looks like more wood and less epoxy. Only have about 18" per side left and maybe 8"...
Actually started with sawzall, circ saw and a very aggressive hand saw that I use for cutting door openings out of framed plates. Ran out of length, and then...
Just invest in a good laser. It's good for other stuff too, like cutting cheese and opening envelopes, but don't try trimming trees with it. I accidently cut...
Working from inside out, almost have 1 side done. Gas fumes beat box fan hands down, had to leave the area... will apply 2 box fans tomorrow. Added a few more...
I do repairs on composite hulls. I have had most success with diamond wheels on my angle grinder. I suggest that an angle grinder with speed control to limit...
Any good way to remove barnacle spots? I got a little tri that was abandoned and left in the water for a long time. The growth was scraped off but the little...
Have you tried high pressure water jet? Cheers, P ... From: cf_fills To: multihull_boatbuilder@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday, November 13, 2009 6:47 AM Subject:...
Is the boat fiberglass? Go to a swimming pool supply company and buy a gallon of muriatic acid. It is inexpensive and very good for cleaning growth and stains...
