Radial Arm Saw Move

Project by kewald posted 473 days ago 933 views 0 times favorited 11 comments Add to Favorites Watch

Before building the hothouse, I bought the radial arm saw and used it on our front porch to cut the lumber for the hothouse.

Here’s how I moved the saw from the porch to the hothouse without having to lift it.

1. Built a pair of ramps.
2. Rolled it down from the porch onto my DR Powerwagon.
3. Rolled it down from the Powerwagon into the hothouse.

I was thinking you were going to lift it up and jump off with it.

Very clever!

(First thing I noticed was your back support belt. You must’ve wrecked it at one time in your life.) This is a great idea and obviously a great backsaver as well!

No, haven’t wrecked my back. That’s what back support belts prevent.
