Looking for some help with my DIY Tiger Saw mod. I've tried using several different size 12vdc fan motors, but they don't seem to have enough torque get them spinning. Lying down flat they work or if I help them to start spinning they work. From the 1 YouTube video I saw using this technique it was hard to tell the size of the motor. The largest motor I tried was from a 80mm fan. I don't want to keep trying different motors. I am aware of the other motor mod, but I am trying to avoid drilling holes in the bracket.
thx

I used the original grey plastic blade. I am aware of the Tom Callahan mod, but I am looking for a quicker and lazier approach.
thx
