Just so you know, I'm not sure if the ads tell you, but those are home made arrow saw settups... You can buy that saw for less than $30 at Harbor Freight and other chinese tool places... They just rig up the base, arrow holder and ruler... Some people like em, others say the saw was junk... Don't want you to get burned...

I can't find the original post, but some people had issues with the saw... But, alot liked it as well...

For a few dollars more than the second saw, you could get a basic Apple saw. I plan on getting an Apple saw after hunting season. Apple saws are what my shop use and they are pretty reasonable, especially if you were looking at those other saws.

Link to the basic Apple saw.

I made an arrow saw using that same cut off saw from harbor freight. the saw is total crap, very low rpms, which caused my gold tip shafts to splinter at the end of the cut, which makes them garbage. The blade is driven by the motor via a large rubber band. Also, there is a very inaccurate miter table which makes it quite hard to get straight cuts.
