Subject: DIY Plans for various stone machines

Is someone charging for these plans? Do you have a link?

I had a link saved to someone's (I think from this list) fotki site that
had some scans of articles about homemade saws. Unfortunately it
appears that the pictures are no longer there.

I'm currently toying with doing a drag saw similar to this one:

The video on the site gives a pretty good idea of how it works.
There's various sources for blades, around $600-$700 for a blade.

I've also thought of doing a wire saw but haven't figured out how to
control the down feed.

tell you how to make some of the more common types of saws, etc.
