On the Motorway

Driving to work this morning, passed a small flat-bed truck (caged), and did a massive double-take on what he had on the back.  3 large, gently oscillating, partially coiled loops.  They looked very familiar, like something I had seen in my shed (just much bigger!), and as I got closer, my suspicion was confirmed.

3 huge bandsaw blades.  Each one would have been about 10′ diameter (making for a blade length of over 30′), and 10″ – 12″ width.  Each tooth was about 3/4″ in size, and looked around 0.6 – 1 TPI.

If only I a. hadn’t been driving, b. hadn’t been on the motorway, c. had my camera I could show you a photo. Guess you’ll just have to take my word for it.
