the blades are cheap as chips. just buy the longer ones sharpen a carbide masonary drill to a decent cutting edge spot heat the blade where u want the hole with oxy acet torch till cherry red and drill it fast then cut the blade length down with angle grinder .u can pick them blades up for a couple of quid each normaly at autojumbles

I bought some big ones a couple of years ago they make good scrapers

i scored a couple of worn blades from rgb stainless from up the road .3inch x24inch and made them in to scrapers i wired there new larger computerised automatic mechanical hacksaw up that could cut up to 24 inch solid round stainless bar they loaded the metal on with forklift and it was pneumaticaly fed and clamped

good grief, that brings back memories, had one of them years ago and sold on ebay to give space for a band saw, Glad I did.

I would say you have the original clamps on there. Just modified, if I remember correctly the inner rear holder was fastened to a bolt to be tightened up and had a pin passing through to the outer that already has the hole.

think the front one should have a pin sticking out from the main C that sits iin the hole of the outer.

Looks like the pins have been removed.

What used to get me upset with my Mechanical saw was there was always half the blade length that never saw work and it seemed a waste to bin...i now have steel blocks in my vice so it moves the stock into the untouched teeth and i get my moneys worth.
