Hack sawing is the one
onerous shop job for which there is no inexpensive and
readily available power tool to ease the sweat.
Commercially made power hacksaws are costly and aren’t found
in most home shops. Here, however, is a new answer.
After several years of building and experimenting, we have
come up with a simplified design for a homebuilt power
hacksaw at a cost that makes it a practical tool for any
shop. All parts, except for the motor land pulley drive, can
be assembled for less than a couple bucks. Any 1/4 to
1/2-hp. motor will run the machine. Any standard 12”
hacksaw blade can be used in it. In speed, accuracy
and capacity, the saw rivals even big commercial machines.
It will cut stock of any size and shape up to 3” high and 4”
wide. In tests, it proved so precise it sliced off disks
from a solid steel bar as thin as .050”.
