It depends on your goal. Rip, definitely. Crosscut, usually. If I'm doing a fine toothed dovetail saw, then I won't always. Same with a gents saw or a flush cut saw. Sometimes, I'll just stone the sides of the teeth of those to eliminate burrs. Then, there's always the fact that I like to handset most of my coarser crosscut saws. Just a preference.
@@proudpoppag thanks very much, i have a set of these foleys but missing files and other attachments pieces and parts, want to sell all cheap 100 bucks pick up in wisconsin. I will see if i can add or pm you some pictures. Thanks
Percy Madon I don't have a price in mind, because I'd rather not sell either one. Again, it'd be an offer that I just couldnt refuse. I enjoy having them.
I have one that I will sell. I also have the Model 200 sharpener and the tooth setter. Both the retoother and filer have 1/3HP motors which are toast. Replacement motors by Dayton are around $120.00 a piece. If anyone is interested, please reply and we might be able to get together.
@@trevordecker4872 Sorry I took so long to reply. Out of town for the winter, but yes, I still have all three pieces and like I mentioned the motors that drive the retoother and sharpener are not good. The start windings have shorted. All three pieces are mounted on a roll around table which I want to keep, but if someone wanted, they could mount the retoother and shapener in line with one motor and use a v belt to drive each one at a time or you could buy a motor for each like the Dayton motors I looked up. We live close to the northest corner of Indianapolis, Indiana.
That was awesome! I'm buying a retoother and grinder and apower setter soon ...just pumped about this!
I just saw one of these on Craigslist and didn’t know what it was… so I came to RUclips to see if I could find out.. and sure enough!
How thick of a piece of annealed steel will this cut? I just acquired one that runs. This would be great for saw spines on knives I make.
Very nice. I hope to have this same model soon. I have a Foley 20000 lever operated retoother at the moment
Do you not have to run it through the model 352 power setter that i see in video is mounted just below your retoother?

Does that need to now be put through the Foley 387 Refiler or is it good to saw with?
Yes. Still needs sharpening.
Good afternoon! and in case you want to sell the machine! Approximately how much would it be? Greetings .
How much?
I want to buy this machine or make one
Percy Madon I have a spare, but it'd be very difficult to talk me out of it. I'm in the Kansas City area, if you want to come by.
Thanks, but I have all I'll need. If you want to leave a comment with your contact info, maybe someone else would be interested.
Awesome!
What is it's price
