1930s Rotary Jigsaw (Cutawl) [Restoration]

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

This rotary jigsaw was also known as the Cutawl (Model K8). Based on the age of the motor and the history of patents on this machine, I believe it was made sometime in the 1930s. It had many other cutters available for cutting materials such as metal, wood, leather, fabric, drywall, and essentially anything else that is up to 1.25" thick and softer than hardened steel.
This restoration was a lengthly process as the motor needed work as well. I am stunned this motor eventually ran so well. There is zero play in any direction other than back and forth when I move the armature. For a motor that is ~85 years old, I was very surprised to see the bronze bushings having essentially no wear. It's possible they were replaced at one point.
After doing research on this tool and talking with some collectors and experts, I learned that there were certain parts that were fragile and prone to damage. The large wheel in the back is attached to the main shaft by a pin that does not go through the centre of the shaft, but is offset. This means that over time, the offset pin allowed the wheel to wear around the shaft and starting wobbling itself to the point of bending/breaking the shaft. I chose not to risk it and left the wheel as is.
While looking at a parts diagram of this tool, I decided it was too risky to try and hammer and pry off the rotary mechanism as it's filled with small steel balls and retainer rings. These two things are my enemies. All I do is loose them. The part works completely fine, so there is no reason to mess with it.
I could actually see myself using this tool for some applications. It has a very natural feel to controlling the direction of cut and I feel like I could be more accurate with this than a modern jigsaw.
Hopefully you get a chance to try one of these out one day!

    Wow. I was highly impressed with your idea of remaking the hand knobs with Bondo. Excellent method- I doubt I would have thought of it myself. I was thinking you would laminate circles of black plastic and cut them down with a ball cutter on the lathe and then insert the brash thread boss with epoxy in an oversized hole. I actually stopped the video when you smashed the old ball and began trying to think up how I would have replaced it. I even thought of using billiard balls! Your method was simple, direct tough and worked out quite nicely. I make small movie props for movie productions and am surprised I did not think of using the Bondo trick. Very entertaining and instructive. However, I believe I would have turned and polished the commutator on the armature. I would have also shaped the brush contact ends. But, that turned out not to be overly important. You did, after all, break-in the brushes and the motor ran just fine. Also, I would have likely used lithium grease rather than Preparation-H, a vaseline based, low temp lube. But, holy crap- look at your results. Fantastic. Excellent rebuild. Congratulations on a job very well done.

    What made the cutawl special was that the blade could rotate in 360* With the chisel blade, a lot of lexan material could be cut (even the middle of the letters) w/o picking up a drill. Inside corners could be cut TIGHT.

The best part for me was the peek-a-boo surprise near the end when you show the steam-engine style cam action which is such beautiful movement, but certainly envisioning and executing the Bondo handles was impressive. As a fellow restorer, I appreciated all the embedded tips. Thank you!

    In reference to you being told not to remove the fragile wheel, I can attest that many "experts" deal with idiots constantly, so have become accustomed to telling everyone not to do this or that because only someone with their expertise and skill can accomplish such a delicate task. I've learned that an equal percentage of them are idiots themselves and have broken things they arrogantly believed only they could work on successfully. The moral to that story is, you always need to know the source of your information. That's especially true with the current methodology of education doled out at the university level. Trade schools are where you actually learn useful life skills. I guess that's why Mike Rowe is giving scholarships to those who attend trade school instead of the university. So, keep fixing things the experts can't fix, because it's just too difficult for them to do. We love watching you do the impossible. At least the impossible to those who can't think and don't understand the physics behind what they are doing. Thank you for sharing your gift with us. Oh, and my wife thinks I can fix anything. Just yesterday she told me I could fix the plastic lid to her mixer that broke in two pieces. I might, but is it worth it? To help her be happy with her husband of 43 years, it might be, but frankly, the time it would take me will cost more in lost revenue were I to work a little overtime than the price of a new mixer. Now to sell her on that idea. Not an easy sell... The type of plastic they make those lids out of requires more than I wish to worry about, especially since we lost the piece that broke off, and it contains half of the hinge. One thing I do is buy old, broken grass rakes if they are steel. Why? Because the steel "teeth" in the rakes can be used to make smaller tools, such as locksmith rakes, which I need now and then (hobbyist, not professional) and for this project, new blades.

    Nice, it looks like it might of have been a pattern cutter from the clothing/leather good industry where they stacked multiple layers and it's razor sharp blade could follow contours easily.

    While I expect that was intended as sarcasm, you're absolutely right - The CutAwl was intended for exactly that kind of use - on a scale that you couldn't accomplish easily with scissors or a hand-held knife: Think set and prop-making for theaters, stencils for painted billboards, etc. It's impractical to cut that kind of thing with hand-powered tools, and, it's also impractical to elevate them on stands to make clearance for a long penetrating blade like a normal jig-saw uses. The CutAwl can be adjusted so that you can just lay a sheet of material on the floor and drive it around to cut your design, without damaging the floor underneath.

    Just stumbled upon your channel by total accident, so glad I did. You're an embodiment of what makes youtube great as a medium, thank you. Modern power tools are great and all and offer great flexibility due to battery power, often offer more options that old tools etc, but realistically speaking they are mostly "plastic crap" and tools won't be around in 85 years (and wouldn't be worth/impossible to restore then). Very different story for a tool like this cutawl. Also, will you be my friend when the zombie apocalypse comes?
