Title: build your own high quality bandsaw
Post by: fujimo on September 12, 2010, 06:58:00 PM
check out this guy, and all the cool things he builds. less flex and tighter tolerances than ive seen on some commercial gear.
no excuse to not own a 16" bandsaw now.

I love the ingenuity of folks like that!  Makes me want to sell my Delta just to build one.
My next build will most likely be a lam grinder, though.

Dang! this guy only wants $21 for a set of those detailed plans? I was afraid he'd want way more than that.

if any one builds one, let us all know- looks like a super cool, easily attainable project.

i loved this , but the size isnt right for me. just say a portable 18v bandsaw in this months pop mechanic , thinking of doing something like this guy did , but with a portable blade.

and that spine tester made me drool...
