Re-designed Frag Saw

This is so cool to me. My staff redesigned fragging bandsaw for the shop. Final version will be CNC’ed out of Aluminum. Can’t wait for to see the final version.

Is this to have the motor up on top?

No…this is based off the Inland saw so the motor is on the bottom. I don’t like the Gryphon version because I don’t like to recirculate waste water as a cutting lubricant. We’re just redesigning it to make it more durable and easier to service.

Do you have a fresh water reservoir used for lubricant? Or do you just cut dry?

I thought one of the issues with the inland was having the motor on the bottom. I had a couple break when water got to the motor.

With original brush motor, yes. They have made the switch to brushless for a long time now. Much more reliable.

I have endless supply of clean saltwater and freshwater feeding the saw during fragging. Clean saltwater as cutting lubricant and clean freshwater to keep the blade and the flywheels clean.
