O.K. I understand what you are talking about,
sounds like a good idea. If you go that route can you give details & pics if
possible. The site I purchased the unit from says its a air unit but it really
sounds like there is hydro fluid in it & when I close the valve the head
stops suddenly with no "bounce". Glad to be of assistance.

? Maybe I wasn't clear.? I mean to mount the
cylinder just the
same as you did, but mount the control valve at or near
the end
of the saw with the vise wheel using flexible hoses.? (Do
they
make them that small?)? I hadn't checked the source before
I
replied, and I was assuming you used a hydraulic cylinder, not
an air
cylinder.? The remote control mounting would work on
either, but there
is fewer messy details with air.? Hydraulics
will give a firmer (less
bounce) control, however.
? I traded for a "real" hydraulic
cylinder which I intend to use.
Someday...? Thanks for getting me
thinking about this project.
