What is the UMM Razorsaw Extender?
This is a package of precisely manufactured shims of varying widths designed to be stacked in with multiple blades of the JLC saw.
In one kit you will receive:
five shims (1.5mm, .05mm, .25mm, and two 1.0mm), and two fastening screws.
JLC - UMM EXTENDER----suitable for JLC COMBO SAW (JLC 002)
Blades spacing - [0,25 /0,5 /0,75 /1 /1,25/ 1,5/ 1,75 /2 /2,25 /2,5 / 2,75 /3 /3,25 /3,5 /3,75 /4 /4,25.(mm)]
Combining the JLC saw and the UMM extender creates a more versatile tool. Now you can make multiple exactly parallel cuts in one operation. A perfect result is well ensured by the sturdy construction of the JLC tool. As the description implies, one operation to create multiple cuts saves valuable time.
The UMM Extender greatly expands the uses of the JLC Razorsaw, as well as the model building possibilities for the modeler who uses them. Consider some of the following:
Cutting of multiple, exact, equal-length parts of varied media is now easy. Simply stack blades and shims as desired. Line up on the material to be cut as you would with a single blade. By cutting squarely you now have more than one identical part. Remember that next time you need to make a bunch of hold down, or reinforcing tabs on your armor project. How about ribs to detail the structure on an aircraft wing? Another use might be to have many blades closely spaced to cut cooling fins on a cylinder head, or machine gun barrel. (Buying two or more UMM extender kits is recommended to maximize this particular benefit.) Parallel panel lines can also be made quick and easy by pulling the tool along a straight edge till the desired depth is achieved.
Describing the positives of the JLC-UMM tool has one resounding theme: the saving of time! With all the things we do to save time in our lives to enjoy more of our hobby, not enough thought is placed on eliminating unnecessary tedium in the practice of our hobby. JLC-UMM Combo Saw addresses this dilemma. The time this tool saves you will not only increase your success in the hobby, but it will pay for itself many times over! The JLC Razorsaw, and the UMM Extender make a great team.
