Slitting saw arbor

[Christophe Mineau]

Hi,
Here is a quickly made slitting saw arbor.
I use it on the lathe's chuck, with the workpiece hold on the milling square as a Z axis.

Hi Christophe,

Very nice work on your website. Nice saw you made too. Like you I do my handles by hand, in fact I use tools made by one of your countrymen Noel Liogier for my saws.

Cheers,
Rob

Thanks Rob,
Actually, it was my Christmas present, with the help of the last award I got from homemadetools.net (thanks again Jon), I had a Liogier hand made rasp.
They are incredibly efficient, even if I am always reluctant to use rasps and files on wood, preferring the gouge, chisel, plane and scraper. But I must admit, these rasps are definitively convincing.


By the way, father Christmas also gave me a couple of high end japanese oiri nomi chisels :0)

Cheers,
Christophe

Christophe,
Nice job. What type of steel did you use for the arbor and what OD did you choose for the arbor shank?
Thanks, Paul

Hi Paul, honestly, I don't know what kind of steel it is, probably not the most appropriate one, I did it very quickly one day I had the need of the tool, I took a piece of stock that I had under the hand ...
(What does OD stands for ?)

[Paul Jones]

OD = Outer Diameter
I guessing the shank is around 12 or 16 mm but wanted to check with you

Hello Christophe,

I built a very similar mandrel for slitting saws:



and assembled



Details and dimensions are on my build page:

I also had some fun with a solid carbide slitting saw blade:
