It can bounce, but it will not come free. All the pins and connections are retained with captive pins.

@@ForrestMFG awesome! I've got a similar type of trailer and was worried all the terrible roads would somehow cause it to fail, if I didn't make some sort of clamp like you have. That's great to know. Awesome Duc by the way. I just got a new V2 and I'm paranoid right now it'll fall off - hence why I'm looking at this type of a setup.

correct, with this setup I can only load a bike with this specific setup. If you use the pitbull trailer restraint system on a typical flat bed trailer with no front wheel chock then that is not a limitation. If I want to take a different bike to the track on this trailer I either need to move the mounting plate or just not use the pitbull setup and mount the bike as kendon designed it.

@@ForrestMFG gotcha, thanks for the detailed reply!

the way I did it, I only drilled through the deck plate. but I then added reinforcing bars underneath. Just attaching to the deck plate would not be secure enough in my opinion.

torsion axle. a decent enough ride considering how light the bike/trailer combo is.

that type of blade produces no dust. It is a knife style blade and does not create swarf.

interesting!@@ForrestMFG

I agree. otherwise the jaw that pivots might bind, thus giving a false reading.

I just walk it up with ramp provided with the trailer. Single person job once you get the hang of it. I do recommend putting some traction material on the trailer deck. Last time I loaded was in the rain and the deck plates got really slippery so I had to ask for some help. I have since put an acrylic anti-slip spray on the deck.

Herb infused butter. Then served with a crisp white wine.

This machine can be used to cut either half rounds or curved segments, which are basically anything smaller than 180 degrees. In this video we show the setup for cutting half rounds. And this video is painfully old. I need to redo it.

I don't think you would want to do that. Just slacken your blade until it is completely detensioned, but don't let the blade curve or get floppy. Then mount the guide and zero the indicator. You are possibly correct that a tiny bit of preload wouldn't matter. But I prefer to start with the blade slack but straight

thank you. When cutting graphite there are a couple of things to watch out for. First the material is very abrasive and will dull your blade quickly. then a dull blade will not cut straight. Next the dust produced when you cut graphite is electrically conductive, so if the dust gets into your motor or other electrical parts it may short them out.

depends on the options, but not cheap. Think "new car money." please call or email us at forrestmfg.com to discuss your application and get a proposal.

you have to push the bike onto the trailer WITH the TRS on the rear axle. how do you expect to push your bike onto a trailer with the TRS in front of the rear wheel? it doesn't work that way.

I briefly looked at doing it that way, but there were multiple geometry issues. doing it with the base plate behind the rear axle was the only way it was going to work.

@@roman2227 funny their website shows that mounting it with the bar in front of the rear wheel as an option. It's possible if you have the clearance. On a regular trailer it wouldn't be an issue.

@@ForrestMFG worth a shot! Thanks

@@Rzm1986 On a flat trailer deck I'm sure it would work and I did look at that option. But on a Kendon trailer that would have required cutting down or removing the two round tubes which serve as a wheel guide. Probably could make that work on a Kendon with the additional work but I am satisfied with this setup. But then anchoring everything in front of the hinge would mean I would not need those clamps to hold the rear deck from bouncing. If you do mount one this way please post a video. I'd like to see how it turns out.

for lack of better words, it is to prevent vacuum sucking from the front where it doesn't do any good. taping up everything except the opening on the top surface means it focuses the dust collection at the top of the nozzle where it does the most good.

the blade is what is called a "scallop edge knife style blade" but it looks just like a bread knife such as you might have in your kitchen at home. We sell this blade or it is available from other specialty bandsaw blade manufacturers or resellers. It is kinda special stuff so not everyone who deals with bandsaw blades will have it.

We prefer to stay away from wood products. The grain and moisture content of wood makes a big difference in how it cuts. We are experts in cutting all sorts of industrial materials but cutting wood on a bandsaw is its own world. that said I do have customers using these machines on a variety of wood products, but that is not our focus.

typically between 15k and 22k PSI but look up the specs from the manufacturer. they're not all the same

glad to be of help. One suggestion is to put some traction material on the trailer diamond plate. I had to load in the rain the other day and the trailer deck gets crazy slick. I put down some high friction tape such as you might use on stairs so it won't be a problem again.
