Jim, I think she's dead.



These Lennox saws always treat me well - I think I got 2 years and probably 500 cuts out of this one. But when they start breaking teeth, things go south in a hurry - just one was missing when I started the cut that killed this poor thing.

What kind of cutting fluid do you like do use with these hole saws?

H20! I tried a lot of other stuff and concluded that the extra cleanup wasn't worth the hassle. Water seems to work great for me.

you can always run air. Less likely to make the machine tools rust.

Great find, Drew. I am not much of a machinist, so I always feel like an idiot when I see stuff I didn't know existed - I assume that runs off a compressor?

Yes it runs off your compressor. It is really easy to move around and easy to get in the spot you want. It also blows chips out of the way.
