Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck

Reporting in from beautiful Sedona, wow! You have made a lot of progress. I'm offline for the better part of a week and look!! I'm going back through this build again, as I am very impressed with the electric power stuff you are doing.

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck

I have that swag bandsaw stand and like it, but the cutting depths are pretty shallow as you found. I have an old Craftsman and a DC motor that I plan to convert, when time allows.

That is the high tech method I used to remove windshields from my Demo Derby cars. Wear gloves and safety glasses!
