Mini Table Saw v2 - Two Gears

Mini Hand Powered Table Saw - Geared Version

"A fun and inconvenient way to cut a slice of bread in half that only takes 10 times longer than using a regular knife."

This is the Geared version of my Mini Hand Powered Table Saw. Unlike the Direct Drive version, this one is operated by rotating the crank forward to cause the blade to turn towards you. The gear ratio is also about 1:1.5 so for every turn of the crank you make, the blade will rotate 1.5 turns.

Like the previous version, I printed everything without supports except the Crank assembly and the Top. My Monoprice Select Mini printer was even able to print the Table Bottom without supports, though just barely. Some of the layers began curling under before it was able to bridge the gap and close the tops of the largest openings.

You also need to print 3 of the washers.

The half circle opening in the Crank is the hardest to clean out. I eventually added a drop of glue to keep it on the Crank shaft otherwise it would fall off after rigorous cranking.

When attempting to cut something, the Table should be held in place with a small clamp or a second pair of helpful hands.
