Product Description

Give Your Taurus 3 a Saw Make-Over
Gemini has put together a rebuild kit to get your ring saw back to like new condition. Includes: Standard Blade, 2 Orange Grommets, 5 Blue Pulley Assemblies, 2 Orange Groove Grommet Assemblies and 1 Flocked Drive Belt. Stained glass pattern and all-around multi-purpose cutting blade. Its action is omni-directional—it cuts at the same speed and kerf (the swath left by the blade) in any direction. This ability makes pattern cutting very easy because the user does not have to turn the piece while cutting but simply move it in any direction.

• Blade Shape: Round .072 Diameter (note 1/16" equals .063 and 1mm equals .0394)
• Grit is aggressive.
• Material Thickness Capacity: 3/8", normal use is 1/8" art glass, 1/4" soft wall tile.
• What to Avoid: Do not use for ceramic tile, 3/8" fused glass pieces, or thick material in general.
• Average Blade Life: 40-60 hours

1. All blades cut the same materials: glass, tile, stone, shell, nonferrous metals, hard plastics such as acrylic and polycarbonate, and anything that has a similar density to these materials.
2. All blades use the same belt and grommets. Blades are interchangeable with the same belt and grommets and do not need to be changed unless they are excessively worn.
3. Always let the blade do the cutting. Forcing the blade through the material in a hurry will not only cause a slower cut but can also shorten the blade life. There is an optimum speed for each blade in each material; you can feel it while you are cutting. Sensitivity to this causes extremely long blade life. Defined, it is the point at which you get maximum cutting speed for minimal pressure.
