DIAMOND BAND SAW
GRYPHON BAND SAW
The simple, rugged construction of the Gryphon Band Saw assure years of service, without expensive and frustrating maintenance. You have a 12" square of platform area. The coolant system uses tap water-no additives required. The reservoir measures 10" x 9". Motor is 1/3 HP direct drive DC at 2850 RPM.
You can make those "impossible" cuts in rock slabs and even fusion glass with this C-40 Gryphon Band Saw. It works like a wood band saw to cut curves and other intricate shapes in stone and glass. Simply guide the work piece and the saw does the rest. The Diamond Blade cuts fast and the improved tension adjustment gives you increased control over the cutting process.
The Gryphon Band Saw uses thin diamond blades which remove less material than a wire or ring saw blades, and eliminates "double cutting" on projects such as foiled lampshades. The band saw is also the quietest saw available, and easily cuts the most intricate patterns in glass and stone.
We include two diamond blades in our Gryphon C-40 Kit. You get one Black Diamond Blade (standard with saw), and One Special Heavy Duty Fusion Blade for cutting dense stone and glass. Both are included at a price less than the usual saw and standard blade alone.
The Black Diamond Band Saw blade is 37" in diameter with a .20 cutting width x .140" deep. Both the Black Diamond Blade and the Heavy Duty Fuser Blade (also 37" diameter), fit other band saws using this size blade.
You can cut material up to 3" thick, but you must cut SLOWLY and CAREFULLY. One inch thick material is the practical maximum thickness.
