Default Magic saws????

Hello scrollers
Could someone tell me how those saws stay up there?
Found this photo on the net someplace. It was in someone's shop.

tough picture to see and not the best angle. My bet would be magnets.

Cant tell from the photo either, but I would guess they are held in there with something like a feather-board , so to remove the saw you have to lift the saw up and out. Dale

Hi,

I'm not positive but I believe that was an article from Workshop magazine (or a competitor) and the saws are held by a dowel: same principle as a pin chuck in woodturning.


Regards,
