Thanks for the idea, at his time I don't have air
due to my housing situation but next year might look better since I am moving.
I'll just keep my fingers crossed.

Feed Control
Rod,
Maybe a pneumatic cylinder may be easier to find and adapt to hydraulic
given the low pressures that will be used in this application. If you have
shop-air from a compressor adding a two-way valve would give push-button
raising and lowering if a pneumatic system was used.
Would be interesting to know how it works out!
Cheers, Cletus

I know you get what you pay for but the gravity
"spring" feed is just horrendous but it?can still be simple &
inexpensive that's why I asked for a "cheap" alternative to add the
hydraulic control. If I can find a hydraulic unit on the inexpensive side
then it would take nothing more than a couple of "simple" brackets to adapt
it to the saw. I found a web site where a guy adapted a hydraulic unit to
his saw & the unit only cost him $6.99 but I can't find the hydraulic
unit any where, maybe I'm not looking right. That's why I was asking on this
forum, just thought someone had already done & had a good part number.
The coolant system is a given, that's on the list to be added & of
course the infamous bi-metal blade change over : ) I will also be looking to
improve the vise this thing came with, I'll work something out which will be
simple & inexpensive & post if I am successful.

Thank you for providing this info to me. Are
you going to use both units on the saw? The price is right if it is strong
enough but I don't know if I want to mess with adding two of them but with
that said if that's the only alternative I guess that will be that answer.
Like I said earlier there is a guy who used an Atlas brand hydraulic control
unit on his but I just can't seem to track one down I'll post the site when
I can find it. If anyone knows where I can get one please
advise.

Thanks for all the help.

IMO?the 4x6?is just what it is and it is good at it too ...a
simple inexpensive metal cutting bandsaw. Keep it simple! IMO More useful
and less expensive mods would be a Lenox Bi-metal?10-14 Blade and
Recirculating Coolant system. But if you're bent on spending the
bucks?on hydraulics, I'm sure it could be done with a little bit of
engineering.

You can silver braze using the ordinary hardware store butane torch. I have a MAPP torch also but reserve that for larger jobs like copper boilers where the work conducts a lot of the heat away from the job.

Almost any shop with a larger bandsaw can do that for you. Better quality bandsaws usually come with a built in blade welder.

There are kits available for doing this job with guides for scarfing the ends, clamps to hold the blade ends together and in alignment and even include the silver brazing material.

Larry, thanks. My Jet is about the same age & it does the same thing. I figured I had the guides set to one side or the set in the blades was wearing causing it to lead. That's one of the reasons I joined the group, thought someone might have a can of cut straightener :). We wsed to have a Wilton foundry about 12 miles from here, but they only made vises & Hunter fan housings. (good vises back then). I don't worry to much about the cuts because I can clean them up on the lathe or mill, but sometimes you just hate to loose the stock. BTW glade it's you getting the snow instead of me. I'm in MS, & it was up in the 60's today. Another 20 deg. or so & I'll start to thaw out. Do appreciate the help. britt --- In 4x6bandsaw@..., Larry Ruebush <lrt@w...> wrote: Britt
I will try to go out tomorrow and check it. I bought the saw thinking I was getting a american made saw that was better than the imports. I gave $400 for it back in 1988. Factory men worked on it several times and it would cut straight for a day or so and then start getting all cock eyed again. Never used it much after that. Have been reading alot of ideas on making 4X6's cut better and am going to try some of them in the futher. Larry Ruebush

Larry, Can you tell me if the gearbox parts & blade drive wheel are the same as the HF, Jet... knock-offs? I have an old Jet & found this saw & would like to get it running for my father. My Jet looks like the drive gear & shaft are 2 pieces. If thats the same on this saw, I'll turn the shaft & buy the gear, bearings, & wheel. Wiltin lists a 5x8" & I think that is what this is. Can you tell me where the mod# is located on your's? Just starting to clean this one up & havent
found it yet. If your's is the same, could you send a parts breakdown or #s? Haven't been able to contact Wilton yet. Thanks in advance. britt

I will try to go out tomorrow and check it. I
bought the saw thinking I was getting a american made saw that was better than
the imports. I gave $400 for it back in 1988. Factory men worked on it several
times and it would cut straight for a day or so and then start getting all cock
eyed again. Never used it much after that. Have been reading alot of ideas on
making 4X6's cut better and am going to try some of them in the

Larry, Can you tell me if the gearbox parts & blade
drive wheel are
the same as the HF, Jet... knock-offs? I have an old Jet
& found this
saw & would like to get it running for my father. My
Jet looks like
the drive gear & shaft are 2 pieces. If thats the same
on this saw,
I'll turn the shaft & buy the gear, bearings, &
wheel. Wiltin lists a
5x8" & I think that is what this is. Can you
tell me where the mod#
is located on your's? Just starting to clean this
one up & havent
found it yet. If your's is the same, could you send a
parts breakdown
or #s? Haven't been able to contact Wilton yet. Thanks in
advance.??
