Bill, What did you use for the blade on these saws?

I'm assuming it is a grinding blade for a dremel tool but I went to Home Depot I couldn't find something this size...

Hi Ben!
From what I can see in my old 11/99 edition Dremel tool accessory catalog, the part number is 425. It is known as an Emory impregnated polishing wheel. You may have to go to a hobby shop or exclusive Dremel dealer, or contact Dremel direct @ 1-800-437-3635, or http//www.dremel.com! This contact info is on the rear cover of my 1999 edition catalog. You will need to drill out the center of the disc to fit the hydrant plug. These disc's are semi flexible, so they are easy to drill.

Great job Bill, so now you are kitbashing eh? :lol: It gets easier doesn't it? :yup: Your wanting to create new items that can be returned to stock is a real test, but you are certainly up to the task! Very nice work. :wave:

I guess you can say that Gepetto  :-[! I've finally surrendered a little! I'm no longer a Playmobil purist any more! The problem with customizing in this manner is, I'm the only one who knows how, & what something is customized, & where the original parts are to return the items back to their original form! The other mystery will be all of the eBay job lots of hundreds, if not thousands of individual items added that were not totally complete with all of the little accessories, etc. or DS parts projects used to enhance a photo story or display, for example, a coffee maker with coffee pot, & cups added to a fire station interior photo story, someone will say, where did that come from  ???! So, if something happens to me the secrets go with me  >:D!

Hello Bill,

Apologies for my delay in replying to your post. I am sure the rest of Playmofriends will forgive me for bumping an old thread to compliment you on your work. I am really impressed with your circular saw Bill, especially how you have been able to retain certain features of the chainsaw so that it can be returned back to its original form if needed. You have done this in such a clever way you can't even tell. I also like the detachable disc, something that I am still trying to perfect with mine.

Thanks Tim! From yours, & others encouragement, I am getting into more projects! I have had good success with the Dremel tool polishing wheel number 425 for the cutting saw blade wheel to fulfill my design requirements as outlined in my topic description. If you see any of my ideas you can use, feel free to use them at will! We have many members in our midst now that have valuable knowledge of our rescue theme, & if we share ideas with each other willingly, items will only get better!
Best Wishes,
Bill

No, I don't mind Ryan. All I ask is when introducing your design you give a small acknowledgement to where the original idea came from :)9!
