Homemade Steak Saw!

[JoergS]

Someone suggested I try to find ways to weaponize household items. So I looked around, and found the knifes in the kitchen drawers.

While it is too obvious to attach a steak knife to a broom handle, I thought that maybe I can use a few of them to make a fearsome cross between a lawn trimmer and a chainsaw...

Bought a cheapo (30 bucks) battery powered drill on amazon, plus the steak knifes (one Euro a pop). Attached them to a round wood disk, then found the best transmission (1:2).



I will now experiment with the angles of the knifes, slant them back a bit so they slice rather than poke. And maybe I can find a faster drill. But this looks (and feels) amazing!

as i said on your video

i would have ad a shield like the grinder from 9oclock to 3oclock to protect you hand "just in case"
but the design is neat.

and next time use a 18V drill. more power.

The best part is your laugh when you first crank that sucker up!

18 V it is, but I guess you get what you pay for... 30 bucks.

Shielders? Come on, this is The Slingshot Channel. Half my audience watch my videos in the hope to witness a major fail...

That saw is probably one of the most awesome things ever. The slingshots are beautiful too.
