Metal Bandsaw
|
I bought this metal bandsaw from
Princess Auto. They were on
sale for $222 Cdn. This was the best $222 I've ever spent.

Metal Bandsaw
Overall photo of the bandsaw. I added a light with a magnetic base.
I put a small
magnetic mount
to hold a phillips screw driver (next to the power switch). You can
see my Sherline Vise being used, along with a work stop.

Sherline Vise
This is a closeup of the Sherline Vise being used to hold material being cut.
You can also see the quick and dirty work stop that I created. The work stop
that came with the bandsaw won't reach work in the vise.

Vise Mount
The idea for this came from
Frank Hoose's
web site. I had some 1/2" aluminum plate that was 4-3/4" wide.
I drilled and tapped a few 10-32 holes to clamp the vise down with.
I will eventually add additional holes for holddowns.
