¿ªÔÆÌåÓýNice work Darren! That¡¯s now a good looking saw, and it¡¯s a US built tool. It will no doubt serve you well! Of all the tools in my shop, my band saw is used more than any. It¡¯s almost always the place I have to start, to cut pieces of stock to build things. When you get your lathe, here¡¯s a good project: A power down hydraulic cylinder for your saw. They make life easier when you cut small parts & pieces, and thin-wall tubing¡.you don¡¯t have to control the down speed manually with one, which saves on not only terrorizing parts, but blades as well. ? Very Nice! Bill ? From: 4x6bandsaw@... [mailto:4x6bandsaw@...]

Well, it's finally finished. Tha is to all of your help but special thanks to JV and Bill. With all of y'all's help it looks great, functions smoothly, and was a fun refurb. Time to find a new project. I will be getting an old Wade 8a lathe soon. Time to put the saw to work cutting some stock to use in the lathe. :) Note: I'll be finishing up a doc on the parts, pieces, and sources. Once completed,? I'll upload it here. Hopefully it helps someone in the future.? Cheers! Darren
