Tube notcher build

Looks like you were inspired by the jd2 beast?.?. Thats awesome right there. I might have to do something like that at some point. I got a pretty nice notcher but not the "Beast" nice. At the time the cost for one was more then I was willing to pay. Cheaper to not notch on a bend. But what you got there is pretty sweat. I also use lenox. I mostly notch 1.25x.095 dom tube and they do fine and last a good while doing it.
 
Nice job, takes a crane to move it I bet. Do you know how much it ways? I'm betting in the 120 lb range. Now another tool to be built. Thanks looks like it works well.
 
I made a jig for the lathe at a shop about 30 years ago...used a roughing mill bit in the chuck and a tube holder on the carriage
